Durability
Carbodeon (Finland) has
released a new PTFE/
NanoDiamond coating with
potential to cost-effectively reduce
CO2 output and fuel demand, as well
as to improve equipment lifespan, in fields
such as the automotive, aerospace, and industrial machinery industries. Features include:
■ A liquid dispersion of 4 to 6 nm NanoDiamond particles.
■ Surface chemistry that has been specially created to integrate the particles with PTFE molecules
without the use of additional surfactants.
