TUBALL™ MATRIX only requires an ultra-low dosage starting from just 0.1 wt.%;
Allows production of conductive parts that retain bright colors;
Maintains or even increases mechanical strength;
Ensures permanent and uniform electrical conductivity without “hot spots”;
Without a significant increase in viscosity or density of the host material.- Warranties and disclaimer

Technical Details & Test Data
- Typical addition rate
Depending on the characteristics of the dilution polymer and the processing conditions, the loading range of TUBALL™ MATRIX 201 for anti-static or dissipative applications can be as low as 0.1–4.0 wt.%. The exact loading level depends on the required performance, resin characteristics, processing conditions and presence of other ingredients. An example of a percolation curve, obtained by compounding TUBALL™ MATRIX 201 in D.E.R. 351 epoxy resin, is shown in the figure below. The dilution of the concentrate in neat D.E.R. 351 was performed using a mechanical overhead stirrer.
