When Materials Fail, Progress Stops

Most nanomaterials rely on surfactants or harsh chemical treatments that damage structure and leave residues — reducing the very properties they're meant to improve.

Traditional Dispersion

  • Surfactant contamination
  • Damaged nanostructures
  • Loss of conductivity
  • Inconsistent performance
  • Failed batch testing

Result: Wasted time, funding, and credibility

Flexiphene™ Technology

  • 100% surfactant-free
  • Intact structural integrity
  • Continuous electron pathways
  • Reproducible results
  • Scalable performance

Result: Breakthrough materials that work

Common Questions

How is Flexiphene™ different from standard functionalized CNTs?

Unlike oxidized CNTs that require surfactants and damage the carbon structure, Flexiphene™ uses proprietary surface engineering to maintain structural integrity while achieving 10× higher interfacial activity. The result is surfactant-free dispersion with intact nanocarbon properties.

What's the minimum order quantity?

We offer 10mL liquid dispersion sample kits (equivalent to 10g concentration) for initial testing under NDA & MTA agreements. Production quantities range from 100g to multi-kilogram batches with volume discounts available. All samples are provided as ready-to-use dispersions, not powder form. Contact us to discuss your specific needs and sign our standard agreements.

Can Flexiphene™ work with my specific polymer system?

Flexiphene™ is compatible with thermoplastics, thermosets, elastomers, and coatings. We've successfully worked with epoxy, polyurethane, PEEK, silicone, and many other systems. Our materials scientists can recommend the best formulation for your specific application.

How long does shipping take?

Standard US orders ship within 3-5 business days. International shipping available with delivery times varying by location. Rush orders can be accommodated for critical research projects or production deadlines.

Do you provide technical support during testing?

Absolutely! Every order includes email and phone support from our materials science team. We can help optimize dispersion protocols, processing parameters, and troubleshoot any issues. Think of us as an extension of your R&D team.

Is Flexiphene™ suitable for academic research publications?

Yes! Flexiphene™ has been used in peer-reviewed publications including Electroanalysis (NASA JPL study, 2020) and numerous university research projects. We provide detailed technical specifications and characterization data to support your publications.
