01 / COATINGS
Functional coatings & films
Explore conductive, structural, or composite behavior on practical substrates using small-format test articles.
Application spaces
Where controlled material networks can matter.
Red Oak Labs focuses on early-stage research applications where conductive fillers, nanocellulose structure, coatings, and small-batch iteration can create meaningful experimental leverage.
R&D FORMAT / 03
02 / COMPOSITES
Nanocellulose hybrid research
Investigate how BNC network structure interacts with CNT-containing formulations and other material phases.
03 / SENSORS
Research coupons & test geometries
Create repeatable material comparison formats for sensing, resistive, or printed-device concepts.
04 / FORMULATION
Dispersed conductive additives
Screen CNT-containing liquid formulations for compatibility with a customer's coating or composite workflow.
The better first question
Not “what can CNTs do?”
Start with: What behavior is missing in the current material system, and what process constraints must remain unchanged?
