Paints & Coatings: Graphene Articles

We supply graphene dispersed in solvents and resins for coating and paint formulations. Coating performance has to be proven in each formulation, so we do not publish general coating results; we test in your formula against your own baseline. Car care is a related area: with ITW we developed four graphene car care products, including solvent-based formulas.

Learn how graphene dispersions in water, solvents, resins and oils work, read the ITW case study, or see how graphene additives are used in manufacturing. Below are all items tagged Paints & Coatings. Graphene is sold only pre-dispersed in a carrier, and pricing and samples are by quote: request a quote or samples.

Build the barrier benefit into the coating you make

A pre-dispersed graphene additive gives formulators a practical route to investigate barrier and surface performance. Published coating research shows that dispersion and dosage can improve protection, but poor dispersion or excessive dispersant can also undermine it. Those studies are not GI product test results.

Possible maintenance or material savings become credible when the required protective function is retained and service intervals are demonstrated. Assess the same coated area and service period, including binder, additive and carrier manufacture, application losses, drying energy, recoating and end-of-life. Graphene inclusion alone is not a low-carbon certification.

Graphene Manufacturing Made in America

Graphene has remarkable properties in the lab, but it only helps a product when it is evenly mixed into the material. Getting that mixing right is the hard part, and it is what we focus on at Graphene Integrations.

What we do

We make graphene and infuse it into the liquids manufacturers already use: water, solvents, resins and oils. Customers get ready-to-use graphene dispersions, concentrates and additives that fit into their existing processes, instead of a dry powder that is hard to handle and mix.

Made in the USA

Our operation, from research and development to production, is in the USA, based in Charlotte, North Carolina. Keeping it in one place lets us control quality from the graphene to the finished dispersion, and work closely with US manufacturers on samples, testing and scale-up.

Graphene in the Military

Defense applications need materials that are strong and light, and that hold up in harsh conditions. Graphene is studied as an addition to the polymers, fibers and composites used in protective gear, vehicles and equipment.

Graphene in Environmental Cleanup

Title

Graphene Helping in Environmental and Pollution Control

Graphene in Environmental Cleanup

Graphene and related materials such as graphene oxide are being researched for cleaning up water, air and spills, and for monitoring pollution. Most of this work is still in research or pilot stages. We supply graphene already dispersed in water, solvents and resins for developers who want to test it.

Graphene in Commercial Aerospace

Title

Graphene in Commercial Aerospace

Commercial aerospace needs materials that save weight without giving up strength, durability or safety. Graphene is studied as a small addition to the polymers and composites aircraft already use. See what graphene is and where it is used.
