Specialists of the Sigma. Novosibirsk nanocenter improved properties rubber using carbon nanotubes, said the interim minister education, science and innovative technologies of the Novosibirsk region Vladimir Nikonov.
According to him, the technology of mass production has already been created. nanotubes. “Research is underway to use them to improve rubber, and results have already been obtained, “Nikonov said during IV All-Russian Festival of Science.
The quality of rubber is determined by three properties: resistance to abrasion, elasticity, tensile strength. Moreover, if improve one of the indicators, the rest worsen. And the supplement carbon nanotubes allows increasing resistance to abrasion, improve and other qualities.
Sigma. Novosibirsk nanocenter was organized in 2011 by Rusnano in partnership with the Fund for Infrastructure and Educational Programs, the government of the Novosibirsk region, the technopark of Novosibirsk Akademgorodok and the Siberian Branch of the RAS.
