Graphene companies

KNOWING ABOUT SOME GRAPHENE COMPANIES


Before starting to talk about graphene companies, let’s talk a bit of graphene. The graphene is a new dimensional nanometric material, obtained in 2004. Its production is, up to today, restricted to laboratory level, however, are carried out arduous research to produce industrial scale due to the extraordinary properties that exhibits, such as an anomalous quantum Hall effect, a behavior as gap semiconductor surface and absence of electronic location, among others, all of whom are emerging that will be of great utility in computing, electronics, and ecology. 

This is why many companies have shown interest in this material. Forming part of the graphene companies recognized by the elaboration of products with graphene.

This is a list of a few graphene companies.

GRAPHENEA

Graphenea is a company founded in 2010 Spain. It is a company that manufacture, produce and supply graphene for industrial and research needs. This graphene company are specialize in the making of CVD graphene films and graphene oxide.

GRAFOID

Grafoid is a Canadian graphene research, development and investment company partnered with Focus Graphite Inc. This company invest in, manage, and develop markets for processes that produce economically scalable, pristine graphene for polymer and non-polymer, energy storage and other applications. 

PlanarTech

PlanarTech is one of the graphene companies located in United State that offers graphene samples and Korean-made thermal CVD systems worldwide. The company is targeting corporate and academic R&D labs. Its graphene samples contain graphene on copper foil, SiO2, PET, PI, glass and other substrates, graphene on UV tape, large-area single-crystal graphene and other custom samples.

2-DTech

2-DTech, owned by the University of Manchester creates and supplies 2D materials, including CVD-made graphene, graphene platelets, graphene oxide and other two dimensional materials. The company also offers prototyping of graphene based devices.
One of 2-DTech suppliers is graphene industries, who's partly owned by the University of Manchester as well.

Aixtron

Aixtron AG is a provider of deposition equipment to the semiconductor industry. The company's technology solutions are used to build innovative components for electronic and opto-electronic applications based on compound, silicon, or organic semiconductor materials. For graphene development and production, Aixtron offers the BM Pro systems. BM Pro systems can be used to deposit graphene using both Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and Plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD).

These are some of many known graphene companies. Over time more graphene companies will emerge, which will develop more innovative products.
