Experts from OCSiAl China – Loyes Zhi, Managing Commercial Director, and Zhang Xiaodong, Sales and Support Manager – delivered presentations on applications of TUBALL nanotubes in LSR, RTV and HCR silicones. The TUBALL MATRIX line of super-concentrates allows permanent and uniform conductivity to be achieved at extremely low loadings without requiring any changes in the technological process, formulation or equipment. TUBALL nanotubes also enable coloured ESD compounds with maintained mechanical properties and rheology. The company showcased the growing number of successful market applications that its partners are producing with the use of TUBALL nanotubes.

By l eaning on the unique competitive advantages that TUBALL offers to the silicone industry, OCSiAl China is actively engaging the local market .
