If anyone wants to sell the mm's will take big lumps off you , go on you know you want to.

[1teepee] 10/10/2019 08:09

You go first That should read;)

[1teepee] 10/10/2019 08:08

You good first mr leader, or are you trying to get someone else to lead

[luckyorange] 10/10/2019 08:05

Terrance explained it well ,

"the challenge for manufacturers is to understand how to disperse the graphene into the host matrix, i.e., the material they are adding it to, because we are talking about a nanomaterial, working with which requires extra precision. Therefore, I would strongly advise end users to collaborate with a producer or an integrator who possesses the knowledge and the experience to do the dispersion, in order to get the desired result,�

Not a matter of just throwing it into the mix and need to work closely with the company supplying the product to get the best end result (as Aecom have done with the Polygrene) not a simple process and important to have that reciprocity.

Because then it would be 4;)

5 deals allegedly ready to drop. Yet none of them have dropped. Why is that?

[club sandwich] 10/10/2019 07:49

Lucky - be sure and give us a running commentary on who is selling 25k blocks, won't you?

[jointer13] 10/10/2019 07:44

orders...it has taken vrs the time it has taken to get to this stage...because they are doing it the right way..we as genuine shareholder will benefit.

we are at the next stage..vast commercialisation upon us...we may even get news today.

[luckyorange] 10/10/2019 07:27

How about we all have a call VRS down day, shake out the final sellers and read the information that has been supplied, with textiles and BIGT in the mix and many other collaborations in various stages of the move to commercialization the model looks good to me.

[matheus7777] 10/10/2019 07:25

Rid I also disagree, if any of the competition were anywhere near us the shorters would be using it as a stick to beat us with. As it is they are getting increasingly desperate and having to stoop so low as to suggest rubbish like *the BIGT is an imaginary place*. I dont see anyone better placed than VRS to fulfill Arcadias requirements

"Our quality has been known for a while to some, hence the amount of interest in us"Hasn't led to orders though, has it? So much high-quality graphene, so little money... Why is that?

[jointer13] 10/10/2019 07:16

ridicule... we are right at the front of this graphene revolution the only verified producer of quality materials.

who do you think companies will go to. (get pointed in the direction of).joe blogs down the road or...

a lot of companies have been buying junk in the past,not knowing what they are getting.

there has been a lot of testing done (loads of info on the web) out there and the majority of it comes back as cheap graphite (don't get me wrong there is a market for it)

“It is alarming to uncover that producers are labelling black powders as graphene and selling them for top dollar, while in reality, they contain mostly cheap graphite, says Professor Antonio Castro Neto, director of the NUS Centre for Advanced 2D Materials.

hence our uniqueness...being the only validated company in the world.

our quality has been known for a while to some, hence the amount of interest in us.

so having our quality materials validated is a massive statement that is not to be underestimated.

Sobering post Jointer. NR has always said it’s a race and we now urgently need a big order to secure our position in the new Graphene food chain. VRS needs a bigger capital base to have the firepower needed to be major player and I do not agree with those who say we can patiently wait for the inevitable to happen; Arcadis will not be doing that and it would be nice to know that VRS was in their mix, but I have seen no evidence of this to date.

the exposure to graphene seems to be gathering pace at a rate of knots.

“Crucially, this partnership will form a key platform in the further development of ‘Graphene City’.”

Consultancy firm Arcadis is to help accelerate the use of wonder material graphene in construction, after a deal with the University of Manchester’s Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre (GEIC).
Graphene was first isolated at the university, and the GEIC has made Arcadis an affiliate partner, joining a cross-section of industry leaders from different sectors who will offer their insight, expertise and leadership to help drive graphene applications and processes.
Arcadis will contribute to the GEIC specifically in relation to the development of construction-related innovations. It will explore and test opportunities for the use of graphene in construction sector, as well as introducing clients and supply chain members to the collaboration process.
Graphene is already being used in some next-generation construction materials such as photovoltaic cells and impermeable paint. It is among hundreds of new ‘2D’ or ‘layered materials’ offering an array of innovations that can be designed for specific applications in the sector.
The university’s facilities will form the heart of its for Manchester’s ‘Graphene City’, which will be centred on the GEIC. This will lead the development of new technologies, products and processes that make use of and commercialise 2D materials.
Arcadis’ new role came about after it helped to lead the delivery of several key buildings at the university, including the National Graphene Institute, GEIC and the Henry Royce Institute for Advanced Materials. It is also acting as cost manager for the Manchester Engineering Campus Development (MEC-D), one of the largest single construction projects undertaken by any higher education institution in the UK.
Mel Manku, UK science and education sector leader at Arcadis said: “Since 2012, we have been immersed in the university’s vision and objectives to globally lead the research and commercialisation of graphene and other 2D materials. While the facilities we have already delivered enable this vision to be realised, we have also been identifying strategic alternatives to support the university on its journey. It means that, together, we can accelerate outcomes which will benefit our industry through the use and application of more sustainable and innovative materials. We will be working with partners to explore and develop solutions quickly; test and move on. This aligns to Arcadis’ approach in the emerging world and we are extremely excited by this industry-first affiliation and partnership.”
James Baker, CEO of Graphene@Manchester, added: “Arcadis has played a key part in the development and construction of the GEIC facility and we look forward to extending this partnership in developing the graphene supply-chain further for construction. Crucially, this partnership will form a key platform in the further development of ‘Graphene City’.”

A webinar, 45 mins long but explains graphene and its uses, costs, quality etc.....very interesting

[1teepee] 09/10/2019 21:40

I don't think inflatable sheep count matey;)

"Can't see anyone wanting to sign anywhere while the intransigence remains in the political system."

I totally disagree. Global multinationals (some of whom Versarien are collaborating with) don't fold their arms and put their businesses on hold while regional political spats get sorted.

"We get some kind of weather here every day" as the saying goes. Same with regional and national politics - they are a regular part of the landscape for global companies. Their world doesn't grind to a halt while Britain and the EU, or Turkey and Syria, or China and the US exchange blows. Someone somewhere is always exchanging blows. If they waited for everything everywhere to settle down they'd never get any business done.

Working against a backdrop of political upheavals is normal for companies who, in some cases, are more powerful than here-today-gone-tomorrow politicians and their governments.

Just clubbier then;)

[swizzl] 09/10/2019 21:20

Hi Neil, any danger of a deal yet? I’m meant to be rich by now along with all my pals I’ve promised to get rich with me. A date will do, tomo maybe?

[luckyorange] 09/10/2019 20:20

Won't be continuing teepee, got a headache ;), with the buy showing as a sell it is just under the mid price so it would. They up the spread which stops the trading, good time to buy though!

[1teepee] 09/10/2019 20:13

I will not carry on banging my head against a brick wall for you. I'l just let you and clubbie continue;)

Hope you enjoyed the @wee north roger!
