Big Thing is I haven't sold any of my core holding and I know more than anyone and have the biggest stake

Beginning to wonder with China if there is such great interest whether it might be better to do the deal with the government and let them licence it out on our behalf.The large involvement of our government is beginning to make me think that way.That is thinking outside the box.

Just a thought - do we suspect with US standards coming first then deals with US companies may be more likely before others? I would imagine US companies want US compliant graphene etc

Plenty of big names in the US!

Need to think outside the box with the ISO

Graphene Quality Assurance

Versarien plc (AIM: VRS), the advanced materials engineering group, is pleased to provide an update on recent senior appointments to strengthen the Company's graphene technology team, with a particular focus on quality assurance, and the selection of the Company to be the launch client of The Graphene Council's 'Verified Graphene Producer' programme in the USA.

Strengthening of Graphene Technology Team

The Company is pleased to announce the appointments of Dr Denis Koltsov and Dr Martin Kemp to strengthen its graphene technology team, with a particular focus on quality assurance. Both Dr Kemp and Dr Kolsov are at the forefront of developing the international standards that will define graphene and other nanomaterials.

Dr Denis Koltsov is Chair of ISO TC 229 Nanotechnology Standards Group at ISO (International Organization for Standardization). ISO TC 229 has already published 65 ISO standards in the field of nanotechnologies and has a further 43 standards under development. Their focus is on developing a set of peer reviewed standards for graphene and closely related materials that will facilitate the ability of producers and users of these materials to have confidence in the level of performance on a consistent and measurable basis.

Dr Martin Kemp is Chairman of the Nanomaterials Committee of the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (IOM(3) ). Of particular note, Dr Kemp has written the new standard for graphene flakes (British Standard Institution BSI PAS 1201:2018 'Properties of Graphene Flakes - Guide') which was sponsored by InnovateUK and will be published in August 2018.



All there in black and white, the standard won't be mandatory so the dodgy ones won't apply . Only thought is that VRS have it wrapped up, after that RNS ISO should already be in the price

Another classic sonnyjim comment!! Just can't help himself trying to sow doubt lol

Graphene Quality Assurance

Commenting, Terrance Barkan, Executive Director, The Graphene Council, said: "We are delighted that Versarien will be our inaugural client undertaking verification to our demanding standards. The 'Graphene Council Verified Graphene Producer' programme is the only independent in-person inspection regime for graphene. As the largest and most advanced community for graphene professionals, the mission of The Graphene Council is to help bring transparency and confidence to the rapidly developing graphene industry."

Not at all sonsonnyjim - as per most recent RNS there’s a new characterisation service being implemented which will allow things to progress for VRS until then.

[sonsonnyjim] 31/7/2018 17:22

Payno that would suggest no significant order for a year then..Can't be right!

[payno1989] 31/7/2018 17:18

Not sure if you have to be a member to view full interview with Terrance Barkan a couple of months back but here's the link: hxxps://thegraphenecouncil.site-ym.com/page/interview2015jultb?&terms=%2522standards%2522

Q. Where are we at this point in this work with the regulatory bodies (i.e. are regulations being written or is research still ongoing)? What is the likely timeframe before standards are published?


It is early days for the formal standard setting organizations in the development of graphene standards. It is impossible to know exactly how long the process will take but I feel safe to say it may take 3-5 years based on past experience. In the meantime, our objective for The Graphene Council is to provide a set of usable standards for producers and consumers of graphene materials within 12-16 months covering the following areas:

Physical characteristics
Nomenclature
Measurement methodologies, equipment and tolerances
Electrical properties
Mechanical properties
Chemical properties
Optical properties
Methods of production
Batch numbers and traceability
Standardized symbols/labeling and quality assays

Rainbow, people might be listening to sg but you can be totally certain that no one is listening to you.

@markminervini
"You are not going to find big winning stocks if you focus on stocks that are already household names. The next big winners are the names you DON'T know well; smaller in size and unknown to the average investor."

Fits well to VRS.

[spike_1] 31/7/2018 16:31

Best answer will come from superg: he knows far more detail than anyone else here ;0)

[melf] 31/7/2018 16:28

I know it is a well trodden path on this board but I can't recall what the consensus was for the current commercial of value of a kilo of nanene. I appreciate that this would depend on order sizes etc but has anyone got a very rough ball park?

[magic beans] 31/7/2018 16:22

I've joined a few of you here and just topped up with another 2500. Good things come to those that wait, and even better things come to those that top up at the right times.

Old news and well telegraphed Will is not selling any more shares.

Guys

Don’t feed the trolls it’s like feeding a seagull more then arrive .

They are funny though, they do add some humour to the board .
Poor things

Ha ha you might be able to break even then Rainbow lol :-)

And down she goes again. The rampers are clutching at straws today. A revisit of 60p looks on the cards here.

[anley] 31/7/2018 14:56

GRABSTER..........thank you for posting the link concerning ISO........most helpful and it just goes to show that when Prof Ferrari told an audience in October 2017 that it would be ready in summer 2018 one must take note and then add 6 months. That goes for everyone else as this is now bigger deal than anyone thought and the world wants in.

Unless the USA and the UK plus a sprinkling of EU bods get their heads together it may be launched in Austin Texas in October 2018 but now I am doubting if it will happen.

I will sit - watch and wait.
