Composites, polymers & plastics

Graphene materials can enhance the strength of composites while introducing properties like thermal conductivity, heat resistance, water and gas barrier properties and electric conductivity.

We develop graphene materials that enhance the performance of composites, polymers, and plastics, helping you create advanced products with greater strength, durability, and functionality.

Added strength

Graphene Oxide and reduced Graphene Oxide are both exceptionally strong and durable materials, even stronger than steel, while still being very light and flexible . When added to composites, these properties are transferred to the final material.

Thermal conductivity & flame retardant properties

Due to the high surface area and high thermal conductivity, graphene materials are excellent thermal conductors. When added to a composite or polymer, it will get flame-retardant properties.

If the enhanced composite or polymer catches fire, the graphene sheets can help suppress it, making the material self-extinguishing.

Water / gas barrier

GO and rGO both have the ability to act as barriers against certain gasses. This introduces an innovative approach to mitigate their influence on the composite, as well as improve their conditions in applications within gas storage.

Reduced Graphene Oxide with its unique arrangement of single-layered carbon-atoms, creates a hydrophobic layer that effectively repels water. This property can be leveraged to develop membranes, and other products that effectively prevent water penetration.

Electrical conductivity

Like pristine graphene, reduced Graphene Oxide is an excellent conductor of electricity. Adding this to composites/polymers can transform them into smart composites/polymers with added functions such as internal sensors for breaking, EMI shielding and as electrical components.

Unlike traditional fillers such as carbon black, which require high loading levels that compromise mechanical properties, graphene materials achieve conductivity with lower filler concentrations, preserving flexibility and strength.
