Description

General description

Vapor grown carbon nanofibers (VGCF) can impart dissipative properties and enhance mechanical properties to polymer, ceramic and metal matrices. Tailor made surface functionalization of carbon nanofibers is possible owing to its unique surface state.

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product belongs to Enabling category of greener alternatives thus aligns with "Design for energy efficency". Carbon nanofibers are ideal materials due to its impressive material properties such as mechanical strength, thermal and electrical conductivity. Click here for more information.
