Resumen de Scandinavia's graphene potential
"It is well known that certain natural graphites are excellent raw materials for producing graphene in the forms of graphene oxide, chemically converted graphene and reduced graphene oxide," Rune Wendelbo, founder and CEO of Abalonyx, told IM.
"For example, our sister company, Graphene Batteries, uses our graphene for battery applications, which have special requirements for product properties in order to boost battery performance. Graphene Batteries optimises Abalonyx's graphene materials for their applications, as other end-users would do," he added.
Although the local fervour for graphene, batteries and graphite-consuming renewable technologies is strong in Sweden, [Mark Thompson] isn't throwing in his lot with next generation technology just yet. "I like traditional markets, the more basic the better. Batteries are exciting but growth is slower than anyone likes," he said.
