CNT
Innovative Adhesive Solutions Enhancing Performance and Safety in Automotive Electronic Components
Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) are tubular allotropes of carbon with diameters measured in nanometers (nm), exhibiting exceptional electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties compared to conventional materials. LG Chem's high-conductivity carbon nanotubes deliver outstanding electrical conductivity and superior dispersibility, making them ideal for a wide range of applications, including lithium-ion batteries, electrically conductive plastics, and automotive exterior components. These CNTs contribute significantly to antistatic performance and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding solutions.
Features

Low Dust Emissions for Cleaner Processing
Non-ferrous Metal Catalyst with High Efficiency
Applications
Competitiveness
- Delivers outstanding conductivity even with minimal application, maximizing cost efficiency.
Ease of Use
- Provided in a compressed form rather than powder, making storage and workplace management more convenient.
Distinctive Catalyst Technology
- Utilizes Co catalyst-based technology, enabling mass production of bundled CNTs with longer residual lengths.
Supply Stability
- Ensures a stable supply chain with the largest production capacity in Korea.
Consistent Quality
- Minimizes quality variation through large-scale production using a single reactor system.
Product Portfolio
CNT (Carbon Nanotube) is composed of hexagonal carbon structures interconnected to form a tubular shape. Depending on the number of shell layers, CNTs are categorized into Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (SWCNT) and Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT).
LG Chem exclusively produces MWCNT, continuously developing products that maximize dispersion and conductivity to deliver superior value to customers.
