We create the most advanced carbon nanotubes with the unique processes we’ve developed. The properties of our own Canatu CNT make it especially suitable for highly engineered solutions, where precision, reliability and high quality are vital. These properties include conductivity, strength and thermal stability in extremely high temperatures. Because of these unique properties, combined with Canatu’s expertise and manufacturing processes, our CNTs offer benefits compared to other existing solutions.
Canatu was founded in 2004 by a quartet of distinguished senior scientists specializing in materials, characterization, and aerosol technologies: Esko Kauppinen, David Brown, Albert Nasibulin, and Hua Jiang, within the halls of Aalto University’s Nanomaterials Group. The unique process that led to Canatu CNTs was invented in the late 1990s and developed in the early 2000s.
Until the early 2010s, the focus was on studying the material and its potential as well as refining the manufacturing processes. Based on this work, Canatu has been granted over 180 patents and pending across 36 categories. The first mass-production award was granted in 2015.
