The 2022 edition of Graphene Flagship’s Graphene Week will take place at the famous BMW Welt in Munich, Germany on 5 to 9 September 2022. In its 17th edition, Graphene Week will reveal the latest scientific research on graphene and related materials and celebrate the launch of industrial projects in aeronautics, automotive and microchip manufacturing, among others. A free pavilion, open to the pub
The Graphene Flagship will highlight its latest innovations in this field at ILA Berlin, a think tank of the aerospace industry. Between 22 and 26 June 2022, leading stakeholders from industry, science and government will meet to discuss today’s challenges, as well as tomorrow’s opportunities. Our project has produced lighter leading edge parts for aircraft and taken 2D materials to space!
The 2D Experimental Pilot Line (2D-EPL), a project grown from the Graphene Flagship, has launched its first customisable wafer run. As one of five multi-project wafer (MPW) runs, this first phase targets sensor applications. Companies, universities and research institutes can include their designs as dies on joint wafers, to test their ideas for devices on a larger scale at relatively low costs.
Graphene Flagship partner Versarien just unveiled the world’s first 3D printed construction using graphene-enhanced cement.
Graphene Flagship stars in an exhibition at Paris’ Cité des Sciences, the biggest science museum in Europe. The showcase, dedicated to the challenges of research and innovation, will continue until late June 2022.
Fact: No graphene type or graphene-based material (e.g. pristine graphene, graphene oxide, reduced graphene oxide or any other type of modified or non-modified graphene-based material) is included in the ingredient lists of any of the COVID-19 vaccines authorised for clinical use in Europe. Find all of the ingredient lists for all of the COVID-19 vaccines here.
Graphene Flagship and partner Emberion has raised €6 million in funding to further develop their infrared imaging business. Currently, Emberion is one of the leaders in the development of these technologies, enabled by graphene and other layered materials.
Graphene Flagship Associated Member Grapheal showcases their awarded graphene-enabled products at CES 2022 tradeshow in Las Vegas.
Andreas Isacsson shares the successes of the project, which investigates heat and charge transport in composite materials
Funded by the FLAG-ERA Joint Transnational Call 2017, Graphene Flagship Partnering Project MECHANIC uses modelling and computer simulations to investigate what happens when graphene-based materials are incorporated into polymer composites. Project Leader Andreas Isacsso
The successful FLAG-ERA projects will expand the current research on graphene and related materials and the collaborations within the Graphene Flagship to develop new graphene-enabled innovations.
Raul Arenal, ARAID Researcher and Group Leader at Graphene Flagship partner the University of Zaragoza, Spain, used electron microscopy to study the changes taking place during GO’s reduction. His two recent papers could help scientists to design new materials with carefully tailored properties.
What happens to graphene oxide when we reduce it?
Graphene oxide (GO) is now commonly used i
Graphene Flagship Space Champion Carlo Iorio will advise EU ministers on space science
Carlo Iorio, Senior Researcher at the Microgravity Research Centre at Graphene Flagship partner Université Libre de Bruxelles in Belgium, has been appointed by the European Commission as an expert on Defence Industry and Space (DEFIS).
Since 2020 Iorio has been the Graphene Flagship Space Champion. As
Bringing together 118 academic and industrial partners in 12 research and innovation projects and 1 coordination and support project, the Graphene Flagship initiative will continue to advance Europe’s strategic autonomy in technologies that rely on graphene and other 2D materials. The initiative, which builds on the previous 10-years of the Graphene Flagship, is funded by the European Commission’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme. The 2D-Experimental Pilot Line, addressing the challenges of upscaling 2D material production processes for the semiconductor industry, is another key component of the Graphene Flagship ecosystem.
