FutureCarbon, the
leading producer of carbon super-composites based in Germany, is making an
appearance at this year's JEC Asia show from October 12 through 14 in Singapore.
FutureCarbon intends to demonstrate an increasing focus on SEA markets.
FutureCarbon is expanding its international sales activities, and at the JEC
Composites Show Asia will be demonstrating material technologies of the future
in pavilion 6 on booth H7.
Keynote products of the company's showing are CarboShield, CarboGran and
Carbo e-Therm.
In CarboShield FutureCarbon has succeeded in developing a coating for
application to surfaces that will effectively guard rooms/spaces or technical
installations against electromagnetic radiation. Unlike conventional shielding
materials that reflect, CarboShield absorbs electromagnetic radiation, i.e. the
radiation enters into the material and not backscattered and is consequently
extinguished. Just a very thin, singular coating of CarboShield is highly
effective over a very wide frequency range. The attenuation or extinction
properties called for can be set quite arbitrarily through the layer structure.
CarboShield is consequently suitable for all applications in which
electromagnetic radiation needs to be effectively suppressed, ensuring the
reliability and functionality of sensitive technical devices for example,
safeguarding humans and animals against exposure to radiation, or even
maintaining information security by preventing electromagnetic espionage.
CarboGran is a redispersing and dustfree granulate of carbon nanoparticles,
typically used as an additive to create specific electric conductivity in
materials. Unlike pure CNTs, CarboGran can be worked by the simplest means, by
standard industrial processes into different matrix systems such as solvents or
binding agents, polymers, thermoplastics, etc. Because of its free flowing,
CarboGran is easily dosed, and electric material properties are very easily
matched to the particular requirements. Added to varnishes, resinous systems,
adhesives, mortar and the like or as a coating, CarboGran serves for
ATEX-conformant electrostatic discharge.
In Carbo e-Therm FutureCarbon presents a high-efficiency, electrically heated
coating for low voltage, suitable for use in the automobile industry, aerospace,
the construction industry, mechanical and plant engineering. The heated coating
can be applied to very different surfaces and materials like plastics, metals,
building materials, etc. Carbo e-Therm is used to implement innovative heating
systems in automobiles for example, to generate the necessary process heat for
industrial foodstuff production, to install wall and floor heating in buildings,
or to prevent the formation of condensation in electric installations.
FutureCarbon specializes in the development and manufacture of carbon
nanomaterials and their refinement to create what are called carbon
supercomposites, primary products for further industrial processing. Carbon
supercomposites are combinations of materials that unfold the special
characteristics of carbon nanomaterials in the macroscopic world of real
applications. All of our materials are manufactured on an industrial scale.
