Fantastic tweet from our saviour, the almighty Ricketts:Many thanks to Steve for manning the factory this morning to get much needed material out for customers, the team going the extra mile. Blessed with a great team, been together for 35 years

BBM, that's so sad... Buy how many others will have slunk away quietly, upset and embarrassed by their financial losses?The term VRSFamily has a bit of a queasy feeling about it now.

Some Interesting reading, maybe a bit old from somebody else

'University of Exeter' 2018 on-wards.







Claims:
146 % in compressive strength,
70 - 79.5 % in flexural strength
maximum displacement due to compressive loading by 78 %.
88 % increase in heat capacity
300 - 400% decrease in permeability (water)

I see the name Concrene (Note NOT Concretene!) mentioned in some of the above.

I see the claims now have 'backed off' some what.

Was it all BS back then? You would think the 'University of Exeter' was

reputable or were the result 'selected' carefully by the sponsor company?

A little bit mystified but happy the 'black stuff' does work just the

magnitude of the improvement.

Failed to distinguish between revenue and earnings. Makes nonsense of the whole thing. Plus of course a ton of unprovable assumptions...

Contrast & compare the last post in 8716 ^^^^ by dgduncan with his last post ever on ADVFN a little over a year later. I wonder if he was influenced by anybody promoting the share/co. on social media or by the ramping crew on superg's thread?

Maybe sj2's legal team could ask him.

Roger, I confess to having sold all my 250,000 shares from well after the peak till they were down at 40p which resulted in an overall big loss for me. Was very happy with the share when it was on the ascent but too much time has now passed without appropriate revenue. Too many of the collaborations have not resulted in anything material. My Having had too many eggs in the one basket turned out to be a big mistake by me. All the things one should not do but still do it because it seems right at the time. Good luck to all that remain.

"That problem goes away if graphene-laced reinforced concrete is used instead of concrete with steel rebar."


3D Concrete Printing Containing Graphene Featured in Building of a New High-Speed Rail System in Britain

By lenrosen4 -August 21, 20210

3D printed concrete containing graphene is being used to build a new high-speed rail project in the United Kingdom. (Image credit: HS2)

A British first is about to be launched in the building of a new rail line in the United Kingdom. The technology they describe as printfrastructure is using a 5-ton computer-operated mobile robot that prints concrete containing reinforced microscopic strands of graphene. No steel rebar is needed during the construction and carbon footprints during builds are reduced by almost 50%.

The project is a high-speed rail system, called HS2, and will cost an estimated $147 billion US. The contractor is Skanska Costain Strabag, a joint venture between a Swedish and British company. The rail system will be 530 kilometres (330 miles) in length with the first phase due for completion from London to Birmingham by 2026.

Printfrastructure refers to a process of building infrastructure using on-site robot 3D-concrete printers. There are no prefabricated parts to ship and assemble, and no mixing and pouring of concrete foundations into forms and frames. The robot printer can work in a variety of settings including physically restrictive spaces without a human present. The print pattern is a lattice (see image above) which means much less concrete is needed during the build without sacrificing strength. The robot printers can operate without disrupting existing railway travel and other surrounding activities, so trains and commutes will be uninterrupted during construction.

The concrete materials breakthrough is the incorporation of microscopic strands of graphene, each just several atoms thick. Versarien, an advanced materials company is the inventor of the concrete with graphene which replaces the steel rebar that today is featured on most construction sites. The added graphene produces nearly invisible fine striping in the concrete as it is printed. And better yet, the graphene strengthens the concrete to make it resistant to corrosion whether exposed to air or water.

Imagine being able to print infrastructure and buildings no longer requiring steel rebar, often a material weakness as concrete buildings age and as was recently noted when an ageing Flordia condominium building collapsed north of Miamia costing the lives of more than 100 residents. After the building collapse, I investigated the material properties of reinforced concrete with rebar. This combination of two materials, cement and steel rods, produces an electrochemical process if exposed to air or water leading to corrosion as the building ages. Called carbonation, the rate of corrosion can be as much as one millimetre (0.04 inches) per year. In the UK where it rains a lot, carbonation corrosion rates will be as fast or faster than those in Florida.

That problem goes away if graphene-laced reinforced concrete is used instead of concrete with steel rebar. The commercial use is not limited to railway lines. You can imagine it becoming the material of choice for any projects where water is involved such as wastewater and freshwater infrastructure. And for homes, apartments, and commercial buildings it could extend the lives of these properties while reducing maintenance costs.

The use of 3D printers in building construction is not new. Dubai recently committed to using 3D printers in all new building construction. And in the latest issue of The Economist, it describes two California-based companies, Palari Homes and Mighty Buildings and a project to construct homes using 3D-printed concrete materials. The printing is done in a factory with no supporting moulds. Eaves, ceilings, and walls are then delivered to the building site where they get attached to a 3D-printed foundation. The process the companies are using is largely automated leading to dramatic savings in labour, and a doubling in the speed of production. Building homes this way produces 2 fewer tons of carbon emissions. And the emissions saved by Palari Homes and Mighty Buildings could even be more if, in future, they were to switch to graphene-reinforced concrete, the material HS2 is using for its new high-speed rail project.

If the foregoing is the case the reduction in concrete used would be 4.5 cubic meters at circa £85 per cube or circa £385.
As the reduction in concrete is roughly half the total savings taking into account the reduced work in progress timespan, reduction in labour cost, abscence of reinforcement below shrinkage and expansion joints, transport etc the total saving would be circa £765-£800 allowing the 5% surcharge that the changemaker3D executive stated to be included to allow for an overall 10% cost reduction.

£800/3kg of VRS Graphene additive = £266kg chargeable by VRS.

At 1000 kg per ton and a 100 ton per annum capacity the value would be £26,600,000 - apply a P/E ratio of 20 and devide by 200,000,000 shares and the share price would be £2.60.

Very simplistic I know and with Massive room for error in calculation due to the numerous assumptions could be much higher - or slightly lower? But a rough guide nonetheless of things to come.

So with 100 tons capacity advised to be available shortly and a share price of sub 40p at the moment this is surely the bargain of the century given that the foregoing is just one of many income streams expected to come on line within 12 months when the fully funded 24 month scale up project comes to fruition.

Also interesting to note that the UK government has committed to ban single use plastics (bottles, packaging etc) by 2022. VRS are in an amazingly good position to capitalise on this opportunity with virtually no competitors and pre existing partnerships in the sector already established.

But as always DYOR and GLALTH
