Impervious graphite (RESBON®)


Carbon Microbeads (NICABEADS®)
NICABEADS® (ICB, PC, MC-grade) are surface-coated micro bead-shape material produced by carbonizing thermosetting resin in our company's unique process. NICABEADS® MPA-grade is artificial graphite powder produced by pulverizing the pitch and then baking and graphitizing them. The product excels in dispersability, electrical conductivity and chemical erosion resistance, which enables it to be applied for conductive and sliding fillers.
Properties
NICABEADS® has three grades ; ICB grade with flat and smooth surfaces, PC grade with pitch based graphite coating on ICB grade and MC grade coated with carbon black on ICB grade. In addition, there's NICABEADS® MPA grade that has a clumpy form.
ICB:5,10,20,150,250μm
PC:5,10,20μm
MC:5,10,20μm
MPA:4μm
