Hard
Carbon

From industrial waste to premium materials, we produce high quality sustainable carbon nanomaterials and graphite with superior purity, conductivity, and competitive pricing.

Hard Carbon (HC)

Catasol 400 series

UP Catalyst Hard Carbon (HC) is a special type of carbon produced out of biomass waste – an organic material with a carbon-rich structure. Reduced carbon footprint, high purity, and ultra-microporosity distinguish our lignin-derived hard carbon from the market. 

Available In

Catasol F400

H₂O dispersion with MWCNTs
concentration ranging from 1 to 3% w/w.

Benefits

Hard carbon stands out due to their high surface area and nanometer pores.

It is a valuable component in the energy storage sector, especially in sodium-ion batteries, where it is proven to enhance the battery capacity.

Applications

Batteries

Hard carbon improves ionic flow and provides higher power density in batteries.

Saltwater desalination

The use of hard carbon improves desalination of high-saline water due to its ability to repel ions. Nanometer pores of NPBCs improve desalination performance and are effective in high-inflow solutions.

Paints & Coatings

Conductive additive for anodes. UP Catalyst MWCNTs are proven to enhance battery power delivery rate up to 10 times.

Water purification

Hard Carbon can effectively separate water from other substances by ultra-fast diffusion occurring in the pores.

Direct air capture (DAC) technology

Higher surface area of hard carbon allows to capture more CO₂ efficiently from the air
