Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs)

OCSiAl nanotubes are playing a critical role in a new project supported by the European Union through Horizon Europe that aims to develop aviation-grade battery cells capable of exceeding 400 Wh/kg— an energy density widely considered essential for commercially viable electric regional aircraft.

The Advanced Carbons Council calls for a U.S. carbon materials innovation platform focused on standards, testing and buyer qualification. The paper links engineered-carbon supply chains to manufacturing, energy, defense and AI infrastructure. Serves as a model for governments world-wide.

Canatu has secured an additional CNT100 SEMI reactor order from FST for CNT-based EUV pellicle production. The contract exceeds EUR 5 million including earlier long-lead items. The order follows prior reactor qualification and licensing, supporting further scale-up of Canatu’s CNT technology.

Cnano will sell 51% of C-Nano Technology to Aether Materials for USD25.5 million as part of a phased restructuring of its US CNT business. The move aims to meet US Non-PFE ownership rules and preserve customers’ eligibility for clean-energy manufacturing tax credits.
