'5 ways graphene will revolutionise the car industry'

Graphene was isolated in Manchester in 2014 and the city has since become unrivalled in its concentration of expertise with two world leading centres dedicated to researching and commercialising the material. More than 60 companies including Rolls Royce are already working in the city to be at the forefront of graphene technology.

1. Lightweight graphene composites for structural components

Graphene can be added to existing metals and polymers to add additional benefits such as increased strength allowing less of the original material to be used. This would drastically reduce the weight of vehicles allowing better fuel efficiency and handling.

2. Rust free paint

Developed at the University of Manchester graphene paint provides an ultra-strong coating which is impermeable to gas, water and chemicals, meaning rust could be a thing of the past.

3. Sensors

As it is just one atom thick every atom is exposed to its environment allowing it detect changes easily. This property makes it perfect for use in self driving cars as the sensor will be able to detect the distance between itself and obstacles even in difficult weather conditions.

4. Electronics

As the world’s most conductive material it can be used to improve transistor density and response times in electronic circuits. In addition, it can be used as coating for any touch screen component to allow interactivity.

5. Batteries

Lithium ion batteries are currently a very heavy component of electric vehicles. Graphene is impermeable even to hydrogen atoms yet allows protons to flow through easily, so can be incorporated into battery technology to enhance efficiency and reduce weight..."

Fitzy, the trend in screens generally is heading our way i feel. Graphene should help develop products further; thinner, stronger, better visuals etc (leds) Best ellis.

'LG flexes roll-up TV as screens start to bend.'

JAN 8, 2019 06:52 AM [LAS VEGAS]

'LG on Monday unveiled a roll-up television screen as a trend of bendable displays began taking shape at a consumer electronics extravaganza in Las Vegas.'


"Bendable and foldable screens were expected to be among the technology trends on display at CES, which opens officially on Tuesday.

Startup Royole was on hand with its folding mobile device screen technology, and Samsung was expected to show off a new version of a folding smartphone...."

"....Foldable phones is going to be a big trend this year," Mr Greengart said, noting that most of new product announcements of that ilk were likely to be saved for the upcoming Mobile World Congress.

He expected the challenge to folding smartphones to be on the software side, not with the displays, since applications will have to be designed to adapt to going from phone to tablet screen sizes."

I think the 10% general correction before the US midterms was about right. But after the midterms, It was gamed down and oversold by undue weight given to trump comments (and fed bank liquidity comment) before xmas. Xmas eve bottom just shy of 'bear market.' And gamed up since. A correction upwards. Chinese economic data and apple disappointment 'changed the facts' last thursday though - ie signs of a slowdown. and in response the chinese & US authorities acted last friday, via extra stimulus measure and fed interest rate guidance to give confidence. Plus vote in commons takes 'hard brexit' off the table in all but name. Plus us/china and brexit trade disputes look to be on a sounder footing, it's likely the 'fear' felt in the general markets is being replaced by better sentiments. I would say a 10% rise off lows is fair enough for where we are now and if trade disputes are resolved, futher moves up could occur. but equally, if the current trade disputes rumble on beyond expectations and/or further negative economic data comes in that changes the facts, of course the markets could retreat again.

Sorry if this has already been posted and I know superg has mentioned the link between LG and Cambridge Graphene in the past so thought this could be of interest:




And then doing a quick search for LG and graphene, I found this interesting article about having issues mass producing graphene in 2017:




We all know the connections and multiple visits that VRS have made to South Korea over the last year and also now have an employee working there. Lets also not forget they signed the MoU with Tunghsu Optoelectronic Technology in November. I think the flexible display area could be about to get very exciting for us.

Dow another positive day, confidence seems to be returning all around, growth may be slowing but still at healthy levels and a looming recession may have been overstated, I blame the algorithms :).

Reading various RNS's on different companies since the beginning of January there seem to be a lot of positives.

For the school college leavers since 2008 it must seem like we haven't come out of that recession yet so don't need another one anyway!

Bears getting jittery.
