Applied Graphene Materials has signed an exclusive distribution agreement with Imkemex, Mumbai, India, that extends AGM’s commercial reach directly into the region’s liquid resins, coatings, composites and polymers sectors.
Applied Graphene Materials, producer of specialty graphene nanoplatelet dispersions, has been issued U.K. Patent No. GB2585648, which covers the use of graphene nanoplatelets in water-based anti-corrosion protective coatings applications.
Nanomaterials can provide paints and coatings with unique characteristics — like antimicrobial, anticorrosive and dust-repellent properties — that can offer benefits to a wide range of industries.
Independent of industry, the protective nanocoatings marketplace growth potential is considerable, as protecting electronics becomes increasingly challenging as devices shrink.
Graphene nanotube manufacturer OCSiAl announced the launch of its second synthesis facility for graphene nanotubes with a production capacity of 50 tonnes per year.
