The technological advances in NanoBiomatters solve traditional nanoclay limitations
Challenge: Lack of versatility – Nanoclays were historically often limited to just 1 mineral (Montmorillonite) and one modification system.
NBM Solution: Large R&D effort has lead to a wider choice of base minerals and modification systems. This means better properties and further possilbities to disperse our additives in broad range of systems (polymers, coatings, thermosets, inorganics).
Challenge: Limited compatibility (limited dispersion) to base materials (polymers, ceramics)
NBM solution: Proprietary technology for optimal dispersion – formulation, process and applications. (+10 Patent Applications)
Challenge: Limited production capacity and high cost
NBM solution: Multi-million euro investment in unique, industrial scale machinery, which means increased production, product efficiency and reduced cost. (2500t clay/year capacity, 4000 t/year concentrate capacity)
Challenge: Debate regarding safety
NBM solution: Products complying with food contact regulations (EU & FDA) and additives never exist as a free nano-scale material.
