Thermo-plastic
Increases material properties of standard polymers by orders of magnitude. Works with every thermoplastic tested (>40, including PET, PEEK, nylon, etc.)
Mined Graphite
Common graphite is exfoliated with polymers resulting in our proprietary composites. Our method is significantly more cost effective compared to materials with similar properties.
Graphene Polymer Composite
Our lab uses a traditional screw machine with proprietary patented modifications.Making use of existing equipment with minor modifications allows for a scalable manufacturing process.
Dr. Thomas Nosker and team developed a unique, patented material produced by a proprietary methodology that exfoliates common graphite with polymers resulting in graphene polymer composites.
A New Age Material: Graphene Polymer Composite
Healthcare & Medical
Medical equipment made with enhanced polymers can more efficient; prosthetics can be more durable and lighter
Energy
Batteries made with graphene polymers will last longer, charge faster and support more charging cycles, improving performance throughout
Consumer Electronics
Graphene polymers can make consumer electronics more durable, enable better screens and give more flexibility to designs
Aerospace
Graphene polymers are lighter and more aerodynamic, improving flight and economics for planes and helicopters
Storage
Pallets, boxes, racks, shelves and other storage and transportation tools and equipment can be made more durable
Sports
Graphene polymers can be used to make stronger and better apparel and equipment, everything from tennis racquets to golf clubs to bicycles to skis
Symius Global Industry Adoption
Exceeding All Expectations
Ready to take a look behind the curtain of our proprietary methodology to enhance polymers with graphene? Let's breakdown the science developed by SYMIUS to generate graphene polymer composites that significantly change the future of material engineering.
History of Graphene: Challenges + Practicality
Discovered in 2004
Heralded as the next evolution in materials, however faced challenges in application
Qualities
Characteristics of Graphene are light, strong, conductive and durable
Cost Challenges
Value limited by costly, complex production which diminishes value over time
Composition Challenges
When exposed to air, quickly oxidizes creating compound with weaker properties
Additional Requirements
Has to be combined with other materials to be useful
Covalent Bonding
-
Covalent bonding
-
Free radicals created on sides of graphene nano-flakes, satisfied by adjacent polymer molecules
-
Graphene is covalently bonded to polymer
-
Covalent bonds are stronger and more durable
Homogenous Composites
-
Evenly distributed
-
Every part of the raw materials goes through the exact same process
-
Nowhere for a portion of the melt to avoid the successive high shear events
