Grafoid Introduces GrafeneX - a Graphene Adherent, Tunable and Multi-Functional Coating Technology for Large Surface Industrial Applications - Seite 3

• Water-repellant and anti-fouling coatings
• Self-cleaning surfaces
• Anti-icing and anti-fogging coatings for:
  • Windows
  • Eyeglasses
• Corrosion protective coatings for a variety of industries, including:
  • Automotive
  • Marine

GrafeneX (D) coatings have hydrophilic properties and may be used as:

• Paint primers and pre-treatments
• Adhesion-promoting coatings for joining two dissimilar materials, such as attaching polymers to metals (example: automotive industry)

More intensive applications can potentially include:

• Surface modification of implants or scaffold materials in tissue engineering
• Drug delivery & cancer therapy
• Bio-sensors, electrochemical biosensors
• Other types of sensors, such as: Contact sensors, nanoelectromechanical sensors, chemical sensors, non-contact sensors, etc.

About Grafoid Inc.

Grafoid is focused on three areas of graphene-related technology development seen as "low-hanging fruit" for industrial adoption.

They are graphene based materials for energy creation, storage and transmission; graphene based polymers and; graphene coatings for all industrial sectors.

A privately held Canadian corporation, Grafoid invests in graphene applications and economically scalable production processes for graphene and graphene derivatives from raw, unprocessed graphite ore. Focus Graphite Inc. holds a significant interest in Grafoid Inc.

Incorporated in 2011, Grafoid's global enterprise platform includes 17 subsidiary companies engaged in the development of Mesograf™ materials and products, and GrafeneX ultra-thin graphene industrial coatings and commercialization development services. They include, but are not limited to: Mesograf™ lithium batteries for electric vehicles, consumer electronics, and industrial energy storage; polymers, plastics, rubber, elastomers, and composite materials; fiber science including aluminum alloys; lubricants; fire retardant materials; thermal management solutions; EMI/RFI/EMP shielding; solar solutions, and analytical testing; and laboratory services.

Grafoid's research is supported through the Industrial Research Assistance Program (IRAP) of the National Research Council of Canada, and, on February 20, 2015, Grafoid received an $8.1 million investment from the SD Tech Fund™ of Sustainable Development Technology Canada (SDTC) to develop a technology that will automate Mesograf™ graphene production and end-product development. SDTC is mandated by the Government of Canada to support clean technology companies as they move their technologies to market.
