ACETYLENE BLACKS

Acetylene black is a high-purity, highly conductive form
of carbon black produced by the exothermic thermal decomposition of acetylene gas. It features a high degree of structural aggregation, making it an ideal conductive additive for lithium-ion batteries, supercapacitors, and fuel cells. It is also used in rubber and cable shielding.

FDA BLACK

Not all carbon black is created equal. For applications subject to FDA oversight, material selection is a critical compliance decision. CBC2 solutions offers FDA-compliant carbon black that meets 21 CFR specifications, providing manufacturers with a reliable, certified solution for food contact, medical, and packaging applications.
