NaturalNano Announces Development of Nanocomposite Products

ROCHESTER, NY - (BUSINESS WIRE) - November 6, 2006 - NaturalNano, Inc. (OTCBB:NNAN) (FWB:N3N) (www.naturalnano.com), a nanotechnology and materials science company, today announced the Company’s strategy to focus on the nanocomposite market for its first products. The nanocomposite market is the fastest growing segment of the multi-billion dollar polymer composite market. The nanocomposite market is expected to more than double in size from $300M today to over $700M in 2010.

The Company’s first products will be a family of turn-key additives, consisting of halloysite nanotubes concentrated and mixed with different polymer materials, which will be used in the manufacture of nanocomposite materials for industries such as automotive, aerospace, electronics, and sporting goods. NaturalNano believes that these turn-key products will provide a unique combination of performance, processing, and cost advantages over nanocomposite materials currently on the market. The Company is currently running manufacturing scale trials and anticipates it will be possible to introduce its first product into the nanocomposite market in 2007.

Dr. Fleischer stated, “Many applications were identified and patents applied for during the development stage of the Company. We are focusing on the nanocomposite market as having the strongest competitive advantage and the quickest path to market for our materials. Future applications utilizing additives loaded in the nanotubes will provide NaturalNano with a significant product pipeline for the future.”
