Nanotechnology Now - Press Release: BNNano and Ruhl Strategic Partners Align for Nanotube Market Growth Ruhl to Leverage Strategic Acumen and Ecosystem Network of Advanced Materials & Technology Companies to Accelerate Growth for BNNano

Boron Nitride Nanotubes are small hollow tubes with diameters of just 5 to 20 nm. They exhibit exceptional physical and chemical properties. Most noteworthy, they possess super-high strength and stiffness, ultra-high thermal conductivity and electrically insulative, neutron absorbing and other positive chemically stable characteristics. �For these reasons, there is significant application potential and interest across a variety of industries for our nano materials,� stated Steve Wilcenski, Founder and CEO � BNNano. �Our NanoBarbs� are easy to use, requiring no advanced chemistry or handling. Also, there is a consistent supply by virtue of our high-quality, high-purity production process. Finally, we have achieved a cost advantage through our production process, expanding the accessible applications for our materials,� said Wilcenski.

�Boron Nitride nanotubes are mechanically similar to carbon nanotubes but with key favorable attributes, like electrically insulating and absorbing of radiation,� stated Adam Harms, Managing Partner � Ruhl Strategic Partners. �We are excited to partner with and invest in BNNano to identify unmet market needs and leverage our ecosystem of industry partners to uncover opportunities to propose nano materials as a solution. This will be key to overcoming barriers to market entry, enabling and accelerating transformational growth.�

NanoBarbs� are commercially available in powders, resins, plastics, and filaments. With so many promising applications, across various markets, the opportunities for growth are very attractive. �We look forward to working with Ruhl to exploit their strategic acumen to pursue the right market activities to advance the proliferation of this innovative material,� said Wilcenski.
