Cement, Concrete & Asphalt
Our Solutions
By combining Symius graphene with polymers, we create pellets that can be added to cement, concrete and asphalt.
1 —
Curing and Lead Times
Full strength in 7 days vs. 30 which allows for faster construction and lower lead times.
2 —
Density Reduction
15% reduction in density which can achieve the same results with 15% less cement, concrete or asphalt.
3 —
Tensile Strength
Tensile strength up by >80% with fewer cracks, leading to 2-3 times longer lasting cement, concrete or asphalt and 10% increase increase in PSI.
Casing/cementing failures lead to cracks or breaks in the cement lining the well
Greater tensile strength reduces the number of cracks, limiting failures
Pressure complications lead to cements that don't harden properly
Impact of outside pressure mitigated by accelerated hardening time
Cement deterioration with loss of integrity over time
Greater load capacity, higher tensile strength extends the useful life of cement
Cement enhanced by Symius addresses the three main challenges for oil well cementing:
Challenge
SYMIUS Advantage
Symius technology for stronger infrastructure,
Integrating our graphene technology to asphalt can increase the durability of roads and highways with a faster curing time and longer lifespan. While oil producers use Symius enhanced cement to line the walls of the oil well, protecting its integrity and ensuring safe and consistent extraction.
Fly Ash & Silica Fume
Increases strength and durability.
Superplasticizers
Increases fluidity and workability.
Accelerators
Reduces hardening time.
Fibers
Increases crack resistance.
Additives + Symius for enhanced concrete finishes.
Cement, concrete and asphalt additives can be combined with our patented graphene polymer composite to improve their properties.
