Carbon Black Vulcan XC 72

Product Overview

Vulcan XC-72 carbon black is a widely used conductive carbon material known for its excellent electrical conductivity, high purity, and good dispersion characteristics. It is commonly used as a catalyst support and conductive additive in electrochemical systems.

Vulcan XC-72 carbon black provides reliable electrical conductivity even at relatively low loading levels, making it suitable for a wide range of applications including fuel cells, batteries, conductive composites, and catalyst supports.

Due to its high chemical purity, low sulfur content, and low ionic contamination, Vulcan XC-72 is particularly suitable for research and industrial electrochemical applications.

Two common forms are available:

•Vulcan XC-72 – Beaded carbon black

•Vulcan XC-72R – Powder form
