The Nanoaugmented Materials Industry Summit (NAUM) 2018 (Oct. 31 in Shanghai) will gather the world’s leading companies who use and apply graphene nanotubes to share exciting results. This year the event is opening its doors to all like-minded innovators and industry pioneers to learn about recent progress in this field. They will also be able to see a first-time-ever on-site demonstration of the production of nano-augmented products with real industrial equipment.
 
The NAUM Summit is one of the largest annual meetings in the materials industry. It is focused on developing a new generation of nano-augmented materials and end-products, whose previously unobtainable properties have changed the performance of most known materials once and for all, driving a paradigm shift in diverse industries.
 
Hundreds of executives, researchers, analysts and journalists from all over the world will gather in Shanghai on October 31. This year is the first time that the event has been open to the public. During the industrial portion of the Summit, participants are also welcome to visit a specially constructed pavilion that will contain demonstrations of the real industrial manufacturing production chain for nano-augmented products with graphene nanotubes.
 
Graphene nanotubes – the specific form of graphene possessing a number of exciting properties and advanced characteristics – leave most other nanomaterials far behind.  Composites & Coatings industry speakers will play an important part among more than 30 distinguished speakers discussing the potential of graphene nanotubes for a variety of industries.
 
This Autumn, Fraunhofer IPA will present a large number of ongoing projects in the automotive industry, fueled by high-strength graphene nanotubes. How exactly nanomaterials can face the challenges in construction will be discussed by CRH – one of the world’s largest cement producers. Korean Next Generation Materials will present their recent progress in creating a so-called “wonder material” – a nanotube-aluminum composite. Shanghai BYK Additives and JapaneseNagase ChemteX Corporation will share their insights on the high durability of transparent conductive coatings with graphene nanotubes.
 
Alongside these speakers from large businesses, experts from world’s leading analytical agencies will report on the big picture of the competitive landscape of carbon nanomaterials and potential markets for graphene nanotube applications.
