We've ordered a pair.

I wonder how many orders for headphones MD has taken in this pre-launch phase, and what percentage of these are from VRSfamily?

If you're gracious enough to allow a share option RNS as say Business Development than we've had 7/10 ths of an RNS per advent working day.So ,well, there you are that exceeds the strike rate of a normal company but eight next week or one really big hitter will be acceptable.

I see graphene getting a look in at UK construction week show 2019. And of course it's the next wonder material in construction btw imo ! Best ellis

NEC BIRMINGHAM   08-10 OCTOBER 2019

'Surface and Materials.'

"IS GRAPHENE THE NEXT WONDER MATERIAL IN THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY?"

Description

"This session will focus on graphene as one of the wonder materials that is currently making a significant break-through into the construction industry. Graphene is the world’s first 2D material that boasts an impressive list of superlatives: 200 times stronger than steel, the thinnest material on earth, the world’s most conductive material, as well as being transparent, impermeable and flexible. What are the major challenges and benefits of experimenting with new materials?"

Sorry if already posted, this really is going to be massive.

@luckyorange looks like a pile is rubbish. Simple website with stock images. Total nonsense. I guess some are stupid enough to fall for it through.

Wolf of Wall Street also available on Netflix. It shows how boiler room scams and stock promotions were carried out in the 1980s.

great film - and worth watching, if for no other reason, than to see Margot Robbie in a bubble-bath explaining CDOs...

I don't know what to make of this man and the company, can't find out much about it and seems to me like b/s, they have only been around since 2017.



Graphene nanotechnology charges onto the battery market
Could graphene-lithium batteries be faster-charging, lighter and longer-lasting





By Jonny Bairstow
Monday 10 December 2018

New graphene nanotechnology in batteries could reduce charging times, improve durability and boost energy density.

Jas Kandola, CEO of the Graphene Corporation, said his company has developed high-performance graphene-lithium batteries in a commercially viable way.

The firm, which has research, development and commercial operations based in both the UK and India, has created a “proven, unique and cost-efficient process for producing all grades of graphenes, graphene oxides and graphene composites”.

It has developed a battery designed to the specifications of a large mobile phone brand – it boasts an energy density up 45% higher than comparable lithium-ion options, a weight reduction of 30% and is able to reach 80% charge in only 20 minutes.

Mr Kandola said the company’s technology also works better in the cold than normal batteries and achieves a higher energy-density due to its unique chemistry.

He suggests the organisation’s core technology can be scaled up from phones to 40-foot long units for grid-balancing purposes.

The Graphene Corporation is currently set up to produce 7.5 tonnes of graphene a month, at a significantly lower price than the current market cost of the material.

The CEO said the price of graphene-lithium batteries paid by the customer would be very similar to current lithium-ion batteries.

He suggested the firm eventually planned to go lithium-free with solid-state designs, adding “the core technology transcends many, many sectors”.

Jas Kandola, CEO of the Graphene Corporation, said: “This is a significant milestone for our business and a testament to the hard work and skill of our scientists and engineers who have worked tirelessly to bring this innovative technology to fruition. We have re-engineered the leading battery technologies and initially developed graphene-lithium and graphene-lead batteries for our clients. Further developments are planned.

“We are at planning stage with our clients to help them launch improved versions of their existing consumer products using our batteries which have significant outcome of having much higher energy density and significantly reduced charge times. One such product being launched imminently by one of our clients is a new mobile phone which has a 30 minutes charge time”.

Indeed morning. This conference at UoM next year looks interesting. I imagine 2D +nanene and graphinks would raise the game here ! As neill says, 2D materials are coming to construction ! Best ellis

Another interesting one here for the natural fibre 'jute':

Similar comments in my own email exchange with Callum ".. I'm very much looking forward to hearing customer feedback too. They went down great with the British sound engineers that tested them, so fingers crossed..."

Well I’m in for the small long! Good watch certainly an eye opener.

metis20, and anyone else who's interested, if you want the original paper, let me know.

Indeed 20%, joking aside i gather it's a good watch. Will be tuning in :) best ellis

Thanks ellis, fantastic film. I shall get the beer out. Cheers.

For those who can stomach it, i see 'the big short' is showing at 9pm this evening on bbc2 :-0 best ellis.

[owenga] 15/12/2018 18:32

Yeah, I agree with you Shavian.. we have no idea what the company's year end is, so he wouldn't refer to that talking to me.

[shavian] 15/12/2018 18:21

RCT: I guess in this case it's Calendar Year as he's talking to someone outside his company We don't give a fig for MD's year end date. I would agree it's usually company FY for internal correspondence, though.

[realcooltrader] 15/12/2018 17:41

I would say the company FY (every company I worked for did, at any rate).

[axotyl] 15/12/2018 17:39

When a company talks about Q1, Q2 etc. is it their financial year (i.e. could be any dates), or the calendar year?

[realcooltrader] 15/12/2018 17:34

Thanks owenga, useful info, just done my bit to add to the sales. Nice jacket btw!

[wuzy] 15/12/2018 17:33

Nice one owenga, cheers
