Novatic, an experienced producer and developer of customized coatings, known for their specialty solutions have launched a range of Anti-static and Static dissipative polyurethane coating products based on advantages of the most sophisticated nanotechnology. Excellent results were achieved by substituting conventional conductive additives with innovative TUBALL single wall carbon nanotubes in terms of color, uniform permanent conductivity and mechanical properties. These results spurred the company to start commercial production of advanced coatings systems with TUBALL solutions that are better in terms of performance yet cost effective as compared to competition. Novatic, a well-known name in customized specialty coatings is committed to sustainable development of the industry. Novatic has rolled out brand new permanent anti-static & ESD polyurethane coating solutions based on latest achievements in the nanotube technology to provides permanent uniform electrical conductivity with colors. Extensive tests carried out by Novatic establish advantages of TUBALL single wall carbon nanotubes, being produced by OCSiAl on an industrial scale. Key advantages of these nanotubes centre around the ultra-low dosages required: starting from just 0.01%, they can provide materials with uniform and permanent conductivity, enhanced mechanical properties and higher corrosion resistance along with vivid colors. TUBALL MATRIX 201, one of OCSiAl’s off-the-shelf super-concentrates of TUBALL was used by Novatic to produce polyurethane primer and coating systems with surface resistance in the range of 10^6-10^9 Ω/sq. “The coatings industry is a well-known pioneer in applying the most innovative technologies. Single wall carbon nanotubes have proven themselves to be the best cutting-edge additive in terms of performance to cost ratio. We are delighted that one of the most influential players in India has duly appreciated our technology and is eager to work up a new market with the TUBALL technologies, ensuring rapid development of the industry,” commented Ravi Mohan Dabral, Managing Director of OCSiAl Pvt. Ltd. The two partner companies are looking forward to collaboration aimed at introducing the latest technologies into the Indian coatings market. Leading specialists are confident that the appearance of cost-effective and simple-to-handle products that outperform current solutions will result in a shift in the Indian market.
