Carbon nanotube-reinforced epoxy outperforms current adhesive industry competitors.
Applied Nanotech Holdings Inc. (APNT) recently introduced CNTstix™, an ultra-strong carbon nanotube-reinforced adhesive for structural applications. With the global market for adhesives projected to reach $38 billion by 2017, the two-part carbon nanotube-reinforced epoxy adhesive reportedly performs much better than similar products on the market. Tested by a leading independent laboratory in North America, the adhesion tear strength of CNTstix is 60% higher than that of a popular adhesive manufactured by a leading industry competitor.
