im curious what is the specific role of your product in metallurgy, oil industry, cars, etc? yes, it's nanomaterial, but how is it being used by those industries?
Dear AmoreJaz, thanks for the interest.
Generally, it is used for different applications depending on the industry, for example -
In metallurgy - Metal-matrix composites. NAFEN™ is a base for the strengthening of metal
matrices. Composite powder materials for 3D printing; cable production - wires
for power lines; aluminum alloys – construction, rolled metal products,
automotive industry, aircraft industry, spacecraft, and satellites.
In oil industry - Nafen can be applied as Catalyst or catalyst carrier. The small diameter of the fibers, high specific surface area, and activity associated with the specific structure of such nanoparticles strongly enhances catalytic properties and increases the potential for use of aluminum oxide nanofibers on a massive scale as a catalyst with high selectivity.
In modern cars, airplanes a lot of composite materials are used. So NAFEN works on a molecular scale to reinforce the polymer matrix by creating a 3D nanomesh within the matrix and strengthening against both compressive and pulling forces. This makes NAFEN™ ideal for use in composites and adhesives to increase compression strength, tensile strength, interlaminar shear, lap shear and other mechanical properties.
You can find out more about such applications in the whitepaper.
