Versarien Share Discussion Threads

Btw if I were someone like Dow, I would not just be doing a development deal. I would already be offering £100’s of millions just for the company. Fortunately for VRS these companies take forever to realise what is staring them in the face and they land up paying billions for the same.

Chill out CS ... there will be no lowball sell out with NR in charge

[phoenixs] 16/12/2017 09:17

I think that the ink alone is worth hundreds of millions and could easily be sold for billions once the commercialisation is established. People may laugh and deride these comments but just think of some of the players in the printing, graphics, conductivity,chemicals and a whole lot more and they do not have graphene ink. The want it and need it. Versarien does and it is worth a fortune. It is not pumping just an understanding of how big this market is.

"So what would the big names give to acquire a technology with such a wide range of uses"

that's my point: if they want it they should pay through the nose for it - not some lowball takeout price...

[superg1] 16/12/2017 09:08

So what would the big names give to acquire a technology with such a wide range of uses, 100% yields no elaborate processes and for modest investment can be scaled to 100's of tonnes of ink. Prints at commercial printing press speed.

We'll see as the big names appear against ink.

axotyl - ISO is mainly a compliance standard that is related to working and management procedures and also to international legislation about safety etc. The certification is delivered by a UK accredited body followoing an audit on production and testing of products and materials in this case. A certificate is then delivered and is usually valid for 3 to 5 years.

If I were NR I'd be RNSing every bit of good news I could, to get the share price as high as possible as quick as possible to deter a cheap takeover. This 'cloak and dagger' approach is all very well, but IMO the fantastic news is NOT reflected in the share price currently (as Super has said, some companies get to MCs of hundreds of millions off the back of one big name - we have at least two HUGE names). My big worry is that they could be taken over cheap (say 200-300p a share) before the company even gets close to fulfilling its potential (which IMO is a zero added to that price, maybe in a decade or two even two zeros)...

[club sandwich] 16/12/2017 08:42

Super - I look forward to the RNS. Would have thought it was already worth one, TBH...

thanks La Forge...

EG

This is the VRS ink news on the graphene flagship website. They describe the ink as a huge leap forward

[superg1] 16/12/2017 08:31

Ax

VRS were invited into the graphene flagship a few months back and are now members.

The GF has 1 billion of funding for graphene research to take it from the lab into industry

jointer posted this earlier, but I'll repost:

hxxps://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2017-12/gf-giz121517.php

great little video about graphene experiments on loop heat pipes (?) in zero G conditions.

Joining the dots: Graphene Flagship is working with the ESA. They are also working with Leonardo (an Italian company). NR dropped a big hint a few weeks / a month or so back (about the time of that trade show in California) that VRS were working with a big Italian company. There was also that pic on Twitter of NR in zero G on a plane that looked an awful lot like the one in the video on the page above. The project is rammed with scientists and academics from Cambridge (and elsewhere).

Draw your own conclusions.

Thanks, 772 - you're correct:

[772] 16/12/2017 07:56

I don't believe ISO9001 has anything to do with materials, its about company management procedures, its unrelated to the ISO standards people are talking about in relation to Graphene.

[axotyl] 16/12/2017 07:54

Any mention of an outfit supplying ISO-certified nanomaterials is of interest to 'us'?

[the stigologist] 16/12/2017 07:50

Who cares numbnuts?

It's like asking who supplies Mars with their chocolate. It's got nothing to do with us.

[axotyl] 16/12/2017 07:42

That's a very interesting link; thanks, Jointer. I hadn't heard of the Graphene Flagship.

Good to see Prof. Ferrari involved: "Graphene as we know has a lot of opportunities. One of them, recognised early on, is space applications, and this is the first time that graphene has been tested in space-like applications, worldwide," said Prof. Andrea Ferrari (University of Cambridge, UK), Science and Technology Officer of the Graphene Flagship.

At the bottom of the page, an article on 'heating dissipating shoes' using graphene, plus links to nanotechnology applications, there's an ad(? disappeared) to :

"SkySpring Nanomaterials is an ISO 9001 certified worldwide manufacturer and supplier of nanoparticles, nanopowders, micron powders, and CNTs (carbon nanotubes) in small quantity for research and in bulk order for industry groups. Our expertise in the properties, applications and various manufacturing processes of advanced and engineered materials allows us to meet the needs of our customers".

It was the ISO certification which caught my attention. Who supplies them?

Graphene in zero G promises success in space
December 15, 2017

"In a successful collaboration between the Graphene Flagship and the European Space Agency, experiments testing graphene for two different space-related applications have shown extremely promising results. Based on these results, the Flagship are continuing to develop graphene devices for use in space."

Between VRS and IOF a much more enjoyable Xmas 2017. Looking forward to 2018.

Patient: thank you ;0)

Well done rocket fuel. I think it's good to 'advertise' the company. As long as new investors do their research (plenty in the header), they will hopefully be here for the longterm like most of us, as the graphene age is coming and VRS is the front runner.
