Graphene nanotubes for extraction and processing: stable ESD protection with enhanced durability

In extraction and processing sectors such as oil & gas, mining, and chemical production, equipment operates under extreme conditions, including corrosion, abrasion, chemical exposure, and high temperatures. Graphene nanotubes provide materials with reliable, electrostatic discharge protection, preventing sparks that pose serious risks in ATEX-sensitive atmospheres, while preserving high durability and strong mechanical performance.

Graphene nanotubes—the key antistatic additive for extraction and processing

Antistatic components enhanced with graphene nanotubes are essential in the extraction and processing industries, providing permanent, humidity- and temperature-independent conductivity while maintaining mechanical strength, color flexibility, and long-term durability.


By safely dissipating static electricity, they prevent ignition risks, ensure reliable operation, and protect equipment, maintaining compliance with ATEX and IECEx safety standards.
