Nanocyl Carbon Nanotubes are in demand worldwide in semiconductor packaging, hard disk drives (HDD) trays and components and IC test and burn sockets for increasing performance, and for providing protection from electrostatic discharge (ESD).

Carbon Nanotubes compounds are used in electronic packaging to meet electrostatic discharges (ESD) and high cleanliness requirements. With the miniaturization of integrated circuits (IC), the electronic industry is facing challenges to protect devices from ESD and overheating. By imparting electrical conductivity to the plastic parts at a low loading, and by meeting more stringent clean room requirements, Nanocyl Carbon Nanotubes are increasingly qualified by OEMs. Typical applications are IC trays and Wafer Carriers. |

As data is continuously stored in ever-denser discs, the sensitivity of components has increased dramatically. In this framework, the hard-disk drive (HDD) industry has established virtually the highest cleanliness standards. Nanocyl Carbon Nanotubes can be found in transport trays for HDD, thanks to their high electrical conductivity and cleanliness. |

Microchips will become much more sensitive to static discharge as they become even more compact and integrated. In this context, IC test socket manufacturers must respond quickly to the trend towards ultra-fine pitch by intensifying their IC integration and plastics engineering know-how. To help them keep pace with the increasingly stringent requirements, test socket manufacturers are now incorporating Nanocyl Carbon Nanotubes in their IC test sockets. |
