Strategic Graphene Process Development and Optimization

EF 2022-23 · 2022-07-01

Résumé
Universal Matter Inc. is implementing an 18-month project that is aimed at creating a world-class Global Innovation Centre for its proprietary Flash Joule Heating process technology, which transforms carbon-containing waste into high value graphene materials. This IRAP project will focus on process and product development for field validation trials of the company’s unique turbostratic graphene in several strategic market applications (cement/concrete, bitumen asphalt/concrete, and plastics composites). Successful completion of this project will create significant new employment opportunities in Ontario for skilled talent in advanced materials and it will establish the new Burlington research facility as its global innovation centre.
