The OCSiAl R&D Department comprises more than 70 scientists specializing in physics, chemistry and materials science, many of whom are world experts in the field of carbon nanotubes and their applications.
All OCSiAl R&D work is carried out at our TUBALL CENTERs, which are located in Novosibirsk, Shanghai and Luxembourg.
TUBALL R&D CENTERS are the production technology development hubs for new material prototyping.
OCSiAl’s TUBALL CENTERs are located in regions with the highest market demand for graphene nanotube solutions and the most rapid industry adoption of advanced technologies. The centers are capable of completing the full development chain: from fundamental research to the fine-tuning of the application of TUBALL™ in pilot industrial lines.
TUBALL CENTER Shanghai was opened in December 2019. It covers an area of 1 260 m2 and has 12 laboratories with 150 unique items of equipment for developing nanotube solutions in batteries, plastics, coatings, composites and elastomers.
TUBALL СENTER Luxembourg was opened in September 2020. This state-of-the-art R&D center covers an area of 350 sq m and has more than 50 items of equipment. Its focus is on green technologies and the materials of the future: new elastomers and thermoplastic composites for the automotive industry of tomorrow.
Focused on the Asian market, which is a crucial market for the company, TUBALL CENTER Shanghai provides technical support to customers in Asia-Pacific region.
