SWCNT Slurry – High-Conductivity Single-Walled Carbon Nanotube Dispersion for ESD Plastics, Coatings and Battery Materials

SWCNT slurry is a high-conductivity, pre-dispersed formulation of single-walled carbon nanotubes. It provides fast, uniform dispersion in plastics, coatings and battery materials, enabling ultra-low loading, stable resistivity and clean processing in water, NMP or ethanol.

Introduction

Our SWCNT slurry is formulated using high-aspect-ratio single-walled carbon nanotubes (eDIPS process). Through proprietary dispersion technology, the CNT network remains stable and uniform in water, NMP, ethanol and mixed systems. It is designed for ESD plastics, conductive coatings, printed electronics and battery electrode additives.

Key Features

• Excellent dispersibility in water, NMP and ethanol
• Long-aspect-ratio SWCNTs preserved during dispersion
• 5–10× lower loading vs. carbon black for same resistivity

Short answer: Zirconium tungstate is an oxide ceramic known for negative thermal expansion, contracting when heated. It is used to control thermal expansion in solid materials and composites where dimensional stability matters. Its function arises from lattice-level vibrational mechanisms and depends on phase integrity; it is not a flexible polymer additive or a metallic compensator.

Short answer: Graphene nanoplatelets are platelet-shaped, few-layer graphene materials produced from graphite exfoliation. They are used to introduce conductivity, thermal transport, and mechanical reinforcement into composite systems. Their effectiveness depends on platelet thickness, lateral size, and dispersion quality, and they are not single-layer graphene or carbon black.

Short answer: Graphene oxide is a layered carbon material derived from graphite, containing oxygen-bearing functional groups on its basal planes and edges. It fits applications requiring dispersion, surface interaction, or chemical tunability rather than intrinsic conductivity. Its behavior depends on oxidation level and processing history, and it is not equivalent to graphene or reduced graphene oxide.

Short answer: Carbon-coated silicon monoxide (SiOx/C) is a composite anode material combining silicon monoxide with a carbon coating to moderate volume change and improve electronic pathways. It is used in lithium-ion battery anodes where higher capacity than graphite is required. Its behavior depends on interfacial stability and is not equivalent to pure silicon or graphite.

Short answer: Strontium vanadate (SrVO₃) is a perovskite-structured oxide studied for its electronic transport behavior in functional oxide systems. It is used as a research and development material in electronic and ceramic processing workflows. Its role depends strongly on phase purity and processing history, and it is not a drop-in conductive additive for polymers or low-temperature systems.

Short answer: Expanded graphite is a carbon material produced from graphite that expands when exposed to heat, forming a low-density, layered structure. It is used where thermal response, electrical conductivity, or physical barrier formation is required in solid systems. Its function depends on heat activation and physical expansion, and it does not behave as a molecular flame retardant or chemical additive.
