Even when introduced in amounts as small as tenths or even hundredths of a percent Graphene nanotubes can drastically improve the properties of well-known materials – in particular their strength and conductivity. For example, graphene nanotubes are expected to help improve the efficiency of electric vehicles by as much as 60%.
In addition, nanotubes enable energy costs to be reduced at all stages of the product life cycle by reducing the amount of resources required for production, reducing the weight and quantity of the materials used, decreasing energy consumption during operation and disposal, and increasing the products’ lifespan.
Thousands of researchers across the globe are working with SWCNTs and achieving impressive results. The TUBALL Awards were established by the Luxembourg-based start-up OCSiAl to help bring these breakthrough developments to people’s lives. OCSiAl is the world’s largest manufacturer of SWCNTs.
