Applied NanoStructured Solutions, LLC (ANS) has developed a unique Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) process for the growth of Carbon Nanotubes (CNT) onto various fiber substrates including carbon, glass, ceramics and aramids. This process is continuous and operates at atmospheric pressures enabling high volume/low cost manufacturing. This process infuses conductive CNTs in a highly entangled form referred to as Carbon Nanostructures (CNS) onto the surface of the normally insulative fiber making it highly conductive overall. Composites made from this CNS-infused filler then have unique Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) shielding and Lightening Strike Protection (LSP) properties.
