Our Technology

Graphene is a single layer sheet of carbon atoms, tightly bound in a hexagonal network. Graphene’s crystalline structure gives it unique optical, thermal, mechanical and electrical properties. The 2010 Nobel Prize for Physics was awarded to the University of Manchester’s Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov for their ground-breaking work in this field. Graphene is the thinnest compound known to man, with transformative potential for applications across multiple industries.

Graphene goes well beyond its designation as a scientific wonder. Graphene nanopowders are used as a multifunctional filler that simultaneously improves several essential properties of thermoset and thermoplastic resins – a capability that opens the door to a plethora of practical applications. The incorporation of graphene additives offers a useful technique to improve the electrical and mechanical properties of epoxies. As a vivid example, the Company’s G6-EPOXY™ products have enhanced resistance to stress, corrosion, cracking and fatigue.

Some of the additional benefits of incorporating graphene into epoxies include increased tensile strength and stiffness, reduced flammability, as well as improved thermal and UV stability. Further, graphene reduces the overall density, weight and cost of composites, improves operational safety and increases cured epoxy durability.

The G6 team has extensive experience and expertise in working with graphene. The Company has developed proprietary methods and processes, thereby enabling G6 to utilize graphene’s outstanding properties to solve customer problems. The Company’s graphene products leverage years of nanotechnology research and the hands-on expertise of G6’s R&D team. As a result, the Company can create proprietary new formulations to meet client needs.

G6 has the capacity to incorporate graphene materials into various matrices such as adsorbents, thermoplastics, epoxies and inks. Its facility is equipped with material analysis and processing equipment. The Company has made advancements in several areas:
