FutureCarbon shows materials of the future at JEC Asia

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.

About FutureCarbon:

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.
