FutureCarbon markets electrically heated coating for temperatures reaching 500°C
Bayreuth, December 22, 2010: Carbo e-Therm UHT is a new addition to the FutureCarbon range of electrically heated Carbo e-Therm coatings, one that will also work on low voltages (e.g. 12 V, 24 V) and can be heated to temperatures as high as 500°C. This heated coating opens up entirely new industrial applications that call for very high process temperatures.
FutureCarbon boosts presence on Asian markets
Bayreuth, October 29, 2010: FutureCarbon continues its course of international expansion with the addition of a further distributor operating the Asia-Pacific market. A wide-ranging agreement was concluded with Singapore-based Dou Yee in October 2010. This focuses greater international presence of FutureCarbon in key industries.
Dou Yee operates through more than 30 branch offices sited in all major industrial regions of South-East Asia, as a total solutions provider for high-tech industry. Established in 1982, the company is highly successful in sectors including semiconductors, electronics and plastics.
Carbo e-Therm for extra heating comfort on motorcycles
Bayreuth, June 23, 2010: Together with a supplier to a motorcycle manufacturer, Carbo e-Therm was successfully tested in seat heating.
Carbo e-Therm is an electrically heated coating whose low electric resistance enables it to operate from an onboard voltage (e.g. 12 V). Because of the simple application to very different surface geometries, Carbo e-Therm can be integrated into the seat systems. The coating distributes the heat evenly to the seat and thus improves both driving and sitting comfort, especially at low temperatures.
Carbo e-Therm for room heating and mildew prevention in the building industry
Bayreuth, June 22, 2010: A heating system that can be operated direct with regenerative energy, and a system for avoiding the formation of mildew in housing: companies in the building industry use the innovative Carbo e-Therm electrically heated coating.
Carbo e-Therm can be applied to different sized surfaces and geometries, and work on a safe low voltage of 24 V for example – a major requirement for secure operation in buildings. Compared to conventional heating solutions, Carbo e-Therm is easily installed and heats surfaces evenly without hot spots.
And a Carbo e-Therm coating can do even more. Boreholes in walls have no effect at all on the functioning and performance of the heating system.
Carbo e-Therm as a coating for heated adhesive tape
Bayreuth, June 22, 2010: Adhesive tape that can heat? The solution is simple. Carbo e-Therm makes it possible to create heated adhesive tape.
A self-adhesive base material of fabric or fleece is coated with Carbo e-Therm and provided with contact strips at the side. Handling is no problem at all. The required length is cut from the roll, adhered to the surface to be heated, and the contact strips are provided with power. The result is a heating solution that is very easily matched and without wasting time. There are no end of applications: heating laboratory vessels, containers such as drums, piping, etc as protection against frost, for de-icing, to interrupt cold bridging or to produce the process heat that is required.

Simply redispersible CNT granulates – FutureCarbon makes breakthrough …
Bayreuth, December 22, 2009 - FutureCarbon's laboratories have achieved a ground-breaking development – redispersible and non-dusty CNT granulates for safe and extremely simple further processing.
| CNTs in Water | CarboGran in Water | ||||

| Mixture of carbon nanotubes and water – the CNTs agglomerate and immediately precipitate, so no stable dispersion is formed. | Mixture of CarboGran and water – CarboGran immediately dissolves and the CNTs distribute uniformly in the liquid. The result is a stable dispersion with extremely fine distribution of particles. |
These products of the CarboGran range enable every user and further processor to produce their own stable CNT dispersions of excellent quality by simply mixing them into a matrix system, solvents for instance, or to easily and safely add CNTs to their processing operation – almost as simply as making soluble coffee.
