Leverage graphene for unmatched mechanical strength

Graphene is known to possess exceptionally high mechanical strength. It’s actually more than 100 times stronger than steel at the same thickness. Despite its strength it’s also extremely lightweight. The combination of strength and lightness is unmatched by any other known material, and it offers several powerful benefits for manufacturing industries.

Create uniform coatings with the GO for rGO route

Graphene-based coatings offer exceptional protection against corrosion, water and gas. However, achieving a stable dispersion of pristine graphene can be challenging due to the absence of functional groups, making it difficult to create a uniform coating. To simplify the application of a graphene coating, we use the Graphene Oxide for Graphene route! GO for rGO!

What is graphene oxide?

Graphene oxide (GO) is an oxidized derivative of graphene. It is a two dimensional carbon compound that consists of one or several layers of carbon atoms. The number of layers defines the quality and application areas for the GO. GO has oxygen-containing functional groups attached to both sides of the carbon plane and the edges.
