Communication Systems
Tulco Inc develops surface modified precipitated silica additives under the TULLANOX platform, engineered to enhance performance, durability, and environmental stability in communications applications.
With more than fifty years of experience in silica surface modification, Tulco supports manufacturers working with sensitive communication systems where signal integrity, protection, and long term reliability are essential.
​
TULLANOX treated silicas are designed to integrate effectively into a wide range of coating, encapsulation, and protection systems used in communications infrastructure. These materials support both liquid and solid formulations without compromising processing efficiency or surface performance. Whether applied in protective coatings, conformal systems, or composite structures, TULLANOX enables consistent results across demanding environments.

Performance Benefits in Adhesive and Sealant Applications
In communications systems, TULLANOX technologies are applied to improve surface consistency, environmental resistance, and long term material stability. Through advanced surface treatment, TULLANOX silicas provide controlled rheology and uniform dispersion, allowing coatings and protective systems to apply smoothly and cure evenly without defects that could impact performance.
​
TULLANOX also plays a critical role in moisture management and environmental protection. By reducing surface energy and improving hydrophobic behavior in formulations, these materials help prevent moisture intrusion, corrosion, and degradation that can compromise sensitive communication equipment. This is especially important in outdoor and high exposure environments where equipment is subjected to temperature swings, humidity, and UV exposure.
​
In addition to protective benefits, TULLANOX supports structural and mechanical performance in communication components. Improved adhesion, surface durability, and resistance to wear contribute to longer service life and more reliable operation across applications such as antennas, radomes, enclosures, and electronic assemblies.
​
TULLANOX treated silicas are used across a range of communications applications, including antenna and radome coatings, electronic enclosures and housings, conformal coatings for circuit boards, cable and connector protection, and satellite or aerospace communication components. Their compatibility with multiple formulation types allows for flexible integration into both standardized systems and highly specialized designs.
