GMG’s graphene-enhanced lubricant attracts interest across the globe
GMG Graphene enhanced automotive lubricant G-LUBRICANT™ is raising industry eyebrows due to its superior performance against existing lubricants. Graphene Manufacturing Group continues to innovate and invest. A vital element of the investment is their Stanhope Seta 4...
Sir Richard Branson gets excited about the potential weight saving in planes with the use of graphene!
"To further reduce the carbon footprint of air travel in the quest to combat climate change, we must continue to look for new and innovative possibilities for the next generation of aircraft. Which is why I’m incredibly excited about graphene. Known as the world’s...
Smog-eating graphene composite can reduce air pollution
The University of Bologna, Politecnico di Milano, CNR, NEST, Italcementi HeidelbergCement Group, the Israel Institute of Technology, Eindhoven University of Technology, and the University of Cambridge have developed a graphene-titania photocatalyst that degrades up to...
The global graphene market size grew 85% year-on-year from 2017 to 2018 and is expected to surpass 1 billion USD by 2023
Graphene, a kind of new material, is still being developed and ready to be commercialised for the moment. Many countries are zealously competing for patents. In 2017, there were a total of 13,371 patent filings about graphene worldwide, an upsurge of 30.7% over the...
See ya later, potholes! Oxfordshire street is the first UK trial of graphene-enhanced asphalt that could prevent cracks and double the lifespan of roads.
The end of potholes? Oxfordshire graphene street surface is first UK trial of ‘wonder material’ that could prevent cracks and double the lifespan of roads. Potholes may soon reach the end of the road, as an Oxfordshire village hosts the first UK trial of a...
Mosquito bite prevention through graphene barrier layers
The mosquito is the world’s most important vector for transmission of infectious diseases, and chemical agents currently used for bite prevention can have environmental or human health side effects. However, now graphene-based materials are being developed for a...
Imagine a future where solar cells are all around us – well it’s closer than you think.
Researchers develop a novel technique using graphene to create solar cells they can mount on surfaces ranging from glass to plastic to paper and tape. Imagine a future in which solar cells are all around us — on windows and walls, cell phones, laptops, and more. A new...
Turning Saltwater into Drinking Water
Turning saltwater into drinking water by using a new kind of membrane which is more porous. The membrane (MOF) blocks the salt ions but lets the fresh water through. Water scarcity is a major problem across the world. "It affects every continent," says Amir Barati...
Graphene Electronics Technology Company Raises Extra £3.4m on Series A
Graphene electronics technology company Paragraf announced ( on 12 Dec) the addition of £3.4m to its series A round, with Draper Esprit joining as significant investor, bringing the total to £16.2m. The round was led by Parkwalk and included investment from IQ...
Airbus Backed Ice Free Project for Safer Aircraft
An Airbus backed European project could produce safer aircraft. Graphene is an ideal material to keep aircraft parts ice free, without affecting aerodynamic properties. "If ice accumulates on the wings, propellers or other surfaces of an aircraft, control can be...
Wearable Graphene Sensors for Healthcare
Wearable graphene sensors to measure pulse rate and blood oxygen levels offer potential for health care providers. The sensors use quantum dots. "Graphene coated with nanoparticles has been used to make wearable light sensors that measure the human pulse and blood...
Graphene Commercialisation Milestones for G3
Graphene commercialisation momentum is increasing at G3 who have recently signed two separate product agreements. Firstly a JDA to develop graphene enhanced materials for the electronics industry in Taiwan and secondly a LOI to sell 300 metric tons of silicon oxide...
Graphene as a Solid Liquid Interface
The Berkeley team explored the interaction of graphene as a solid liquid interface for water and a common battery electrolyte fluid. "How a liquid interacts with the surface of a solid is important in batteries and fuel cells, chemical production, corrosion phenomena,...
