Nanocomp Technologies and DuPont Form Strategic Relationship

In addition to participating in Nanocomp’s current financing round, DuPont has agreed to work with Nanocomp to develop products utilizing its CNT sheet and yarn materials together with offerings from the DuPont Protection Technologies business unit, in support of further advancing ballistics protection and core structure applications for their markets.

DuPont becomes the latest entity to participate in Nanocomp’s larger, $25 million Series C investment round from a syndicate of current and new strategic investors, expected to close later this year. Nanocomp will use the funding to expand its manufacturing capacity and underwrite market expansion, as it completes transition into a new, volume production facility in Merrimack, N.H. Nanocomp’s CNT yarn and sheet products are finding use in advanced components in a number of critical U.S. Department of Defense and NASA programs.
