PolyNorbit
PolyNorbit is a special polymer developed by Technorbital. This is a copolymer with multiple monomer units to provide different desirable functionalities. It contains several monomer units combined in a molecularly engineered fashion to achieve the needs of high efficiency membranes. This polymer can be used for preparing inherently antifouling, easy cleansable membranes which offer minimum resistance to the flow of water and water/oil mixture.
This polymer has very high affinity towards water and water transport compared to conventional polymers like polysulfone, polyether sulfone or PVDF and thus providing excellent transport properties. The polymer is inherently anti-microbital, the high dipole moment of the material interacts with the bacterial cell wall and deactivate the organisms with time. Though the material is hydrophilic in nature, it does not dissolve in water. The membrane produced out of PolyNorbit are very strong and inert to many common chemicals such as acids and bases at ambient temperature.
PolyNorbit polymer is also available at desirable molecular weight and can be produced with additional comonomers for custom synthesis requirements like heavy metal removal membranes.

PAN
PolyAcryloNitrile (PAN) is a synthetically produced organic polymer resin, which though thermoplastic, has thermal stability. Its chemical formula is as follows:
(C3H3N)n
Technorbital is one of the first companies in India to specially synthesize a PAN with a modified molecular weight and a unique formulation of copolymers that empowered the resulting PAN with some exceptional properties that could be used in the field of carbon fibres, lithium ion batteries anodes, nano fibres and create wonders. Technorbital’s PAN has been approved by many companies and research/academic institutes for its use innext generation Lithium ion batteries, as a precursor to carbon fibre, PAN/CNT based carbon films, activated carbon fibres for chemical adsorption and silver impregnated antimicrobial fibres.
Our PAN has range of applications including:
- Nano Fibres
- Carbon Fibres
- Lithium Battery Anodes
