Perpetuus Carbon Group and G24 Power Ltd has entered into a memorandum of understanding, a precursor to a full commercial partnership and manufacturing agreement.
Using Perpetuus’ functionalized graphenes, G24 will produce to order a range of advanced graphene enabled components, in sheet or roll form. G24’s advanced manufacturing equipment enables production capacity of 1000s of meters of components per month for areas such as:
• Resistance heating
• Bio-sensor platforms
• Barrier packaging
• Composite physical reinforcements
• Water treatment
• Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) Fuel Cell
• Thermal management and heat dissipation
• EMI shielding
• Electrodes for batteries and super capacitors
• LI-AIR battery cathodes
Thermal conductivity of greater than 500 W/M°K along with surface resistivity of substantially less than 1 Ω/sq, can been achieved on rolls of material, produced at a specific thickness, on specified substrates, for components used in aerospace, marine, automotive, energy generation and energy storage industries.
“We were impressed how quickly the technical team at G24 took our graphene enabled compounds and started producing components that can be used in so many exciting areas of industry,” John Buckland, CEO of Perpetuus Carbon Group said. “Their manufacturing equipment and scientists are first class and I have no doubt our partnership will quickly make us the world’s first manufacturer of graphene enabled components in many market sectors. This new relationship, together with other collaborations sets Perpetuus Carbon Group apart from our competitors as the only business truly able to commercially produce graphene enabled products. Our existing and soon to be expanded facility in South Wales, UK, has the capability to grow into the world’s first centre for manufacturing graphene enabled products. Taken together with exciting advances in R&D at the Institute of Graphene at Manchester University, we believe that George Osborne’s vision of the UK being the powerhouse of graphene technology will soon become a reality”.
“G24 is known the world over for excellence in the field of DSSC PV technology,” Richard Costello, CEO of G24 Power said. “Our expertise in this regard has delivered a capability to produce high-speed, roll-to-roll, precision thickness coatings. Working with Perpetuus we have configured our production equipment to manufacture graphene-enabled coatings and films to precise specifications. We can therefore produce to order a range of components and applications for the automotive, aerospace, marine, electronics, as well as other market sectors. With Perpetuus producing commercial quantities of functionalized graphenes we are perfectly placed to supply the global market with these exciting new products.”
