General description

Graphene nanoplatelets are “pure carbon”, with a high tendency to aggregate and poor interactions with the surrounding matrix, hence difficult to disperse in processes and supports such as epoxy resin, or thermoplastics. The chemical modification on the surface of graphite nanoplatelet open new properties allowing good interaction with the targeted matrix. Without these chemical modifications the dispersion step became a difficult task and quite often do not produce the expected benefits.

3D printing is a type of additive manufacturing that can be used to rapidly fabricate components with highly customizable geometries.

Since its discovery little more than a decade ago,1 the two-dimensional (2D) allotrope of carbon—graphene—has been the subject of intense multidisciplinary research efforts.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
