| High-performance polymers containing carbon nanotubes |
TEGO polymers provide many advantages, the most striking of which include enhancing strength while preserving flexibility, and enabling uniform electrical and thermal conductivity. These unique features make TEGO polymers ideal candidates for applications in the semiconductor, data storage, aerospace, consumer electronics and medical industries.
Key to the successful blending of carbon nanotubes with polymers is ensuring and validating the homogeneity of the carbon nanotube phase within the host polymer. Entegris, Inc. has developed unique characterization methods to consistently achieve these ends.
