“From theory to R&D, and from testing to production, GC helps global brands unlock the potential of nanomaterials engineering to bring world-changing products to life.” (Sandy Chen, CEO)

Pioneering development

We work with innovators who thrive on harnessing the power of possibility to maintain their position as industry leaders; they embrace the new technologies that change the world.

We supply manufacturers, product owners and brands who understand that the drive to realise big wins through a process of continual improvement keeps them at the forefront of their industries.

Vibration Control

Nanotechnology + innovative material engineering = strongest, lightest, most resilient materials

We are developing composites that have similar performance as carbon-fibre composites – but with better strength to weight ratios.

Using a production process similar to that used in carbon fibre components, we cure multiple layers of graphene-infused polymer, aerogels and other materials into a strong, lightweight material. This provides a higher degree of shock/impact resistance than other composites.

How GC composite technology can be used

For stronger, lighter, more resilient composites

FRICTIONLESS DESIGN

Low friction of the graphene top surface reduces drag

DISPERSING ENERGY

Aerogel provides thermal insulation, whilst the graphene disperses energy due to its high electrical conductivity

DAMPENING VIBRATIONS

Aerogel layers will dampen vibrations

THERMAL PERFORMANCE

Our GC composite will have a significantly lower coefficient of thermal expansion – crucially important in aeronautics

Case Study

GC AND 401 TECH BRIDGE

Read how the GC and 401 Tech Bridge teams are looking forward to eventually moving production of GC Ink and other GC technology to the new Advanced Materials and Technology Center anticipated to open sometime in 2022 in Portsmouth, RI.

With its opening will come the commissioning and availability of the plasma reactor, which will accelerate the adoption of nanotechnology in Rhode Island and beyond.
