Advanced Graphene Products: Graphene Revolution using Liquid Metal
Posted by – September 29, 2015
Professor Piotr Kula from Advanced Graphene Products (AGP) and the Lodz University of Technology being interviewed by Thomas Keenan (IDTechEx) at Graphene & 2D Materials Europe . The company, using a production method created by the Institute of Materials Science and Engineering (Technical University Lodz) has developed an unique, extremely efficient graphene production process. Graphene is now grown on liquid metal. AGP says that this is an edge of a revolution. This new technology shifts graphene production to an industrial level. It is now possible to manufacture large, high quality graphene sheets for a reasonable price. Using liquid metal also results in superior qualities never seen before.
