The GIANCE project is set to revolutionise material solutions across multiple industries by introducing a new generation of sustainable graphene-based materials (GRM-bM) that combine enhanced performance with a significant reduction in environmental impact. By focusing on circular design, lightweight construction, and multifunctionality, GIANCE aims to reduce energy consumption, cut CO2 emissions per vehicle over its lifetime, and promote material recyclability.
The applications for graphene use are broad, having altered the composition of electronics, energy storage and biomedical devices, sensors and composites and coatings over the past two decades. This is all due to its exceptional mechanical, electrical and thermal properties. However, what are the environmental impacts of its use and how does the cost limit its application?
Young and innovative, Graphene Flagship Partner NANESA is creating products based on composite materials to meet the needs of clients across various fields.
Graphene Week 2023 is soon approaching. The 2023 edition of the Graphene Flagship’s Graphene Week will take place at Svenska Massan, in Gothenburg, Sweden from 4 -8 September 2023. With this year’s theme being ‘Turn Wonder into Action’, the conference is set to showcase the achievements of the Graphene Flagship and it’s partners this past decade and facilitate varied discussions on the future possibilities of Graphene research and applications.
Several spin-outs that are directly partnered with the Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre (GEIC) at Graphene Flagship Partner The University of Manchester (UK) have received milestone funding, including a $1 billion investment.
Graphene has proven to be a game-changer in the textile industry, that’s why several sports and clothing brands are working with graphene suppliers to produce graphene-enriched fabrics.
Graphene integrated with other materials brings new products to the forefront of innovation - an exciting advancement that we will be exploring in our "Materials of the future" series. We begin this series with metals.
