Chubais spoke about the “revolution” in the production of graphene nanotubes in Russia

OCSiAl, which was previously part of the Rusnano group, has launched the Graphetron-50 industrial unit in Novosibirsk, which has no analogues anywhere in the world. According to the head of the board of Rusnano, Anatoly Chubais, this is "an outstanding international event, a real revolution in the production of nanofibers and various materials."
We are talking about the commissioning of a plant for the production of graphene nanotubes with a capacity of 50 tons per year. Chubais claims that not a single company in the world today is capable of producing a single ton of this innovative material.
Graphene nanotubes, when added to the composition of other materials in a small amount, can dramatically change their characteristics. For example, a 0,1% addition of nanotubes to aluminum doubles its strength, while adding one thousandth of a percent of this material to concrete makes it one and a half times stronger. And by adding 0,01 percent to the plastic, you can make it electrically conductive. The graphene tubes themselves are 150 times stronger than steel.
The Russian company OCSiAl already supplies nanotubes to 75 percent of the world's leading technological manufacturers. Most of them do not disclose the fact of their cooperation with the Russians. We only know that OCSiAl's clients are LG and Pirelli.
