As noted at the time of the announcement, as part of the collaboration leading experts from Haydale will be working together with Petronas researchers, to functionalise graphene for product applications in an effort to accelerate commercialisation of graphene-based formulations in various different industries.
Commenting on the visit, Ammanford Head of Special Projects John Mark Seymour said, “Our expertise in nanomaterials and our functionalisation technology compliments Petronas’ commitment to sustainability, safeguarding the environment and commercial drive. By hosting the site visit, we can look to build on our partnership, showcase our unique technology and demonstrate exactly how our material improvements can help penetrate new markets.”
