• Graphene recovered from used sensors can be reprinted five times without performance loss
  Researchers at Silicon Austria Labs (SAL) and EPFL have developed a recyclable, surfactant-free graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) ink that uses linalool ,a terpene alcohol that occurs naturally in lavender, basil and other aromatic plants, as its solvent and ethyl cellulose as its binder. The team printed electrochemical sensors with the ink, then took them apart after […]
• Zentek pre-qualifies to supply graphene coatings for Canada's defense drone program
  Zentek has been pre-qualified under the Government of Canada's Defense Drone Initiative Marketplace, a supplier pool for uncrewed and autonomous systems managed by the Defense Investment Agency on behalf of the Department of National Defense. The five-year supply arrangement runs from August 26, 2026 to July 31, 2031, and lets Zentek respond to task solicitations […]
• GMG secures US$10 million private placement to scale graphene and battery production
  Graphene Manufacturing Group (GMG) will issue roughly 6.5 million shares to a private investor at CA$2.15 (about US$1.53) each in a private placement raising approximately US$10 million. The raise is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval and is expected to close on or about September 23, 2026. GMG said it intends to use the net […]
• New graphene fiber conducts heat better than copper while matching top carbon fiber strength
  Researchers at Zhejiang University have developed a wet-spinning process that produces graphene fibers combining exceptional tensile strength with high thermal conductivity, addressing a long-standing trade-off between the two properties.The team dispersed graphene oxide sheets in glycerol, a highly viscous solvent that gives the dispersion polymer-like viscoelastic behavior. That viscosity allowed the fibers to be stretched, […]
• iGii secures £22.7 million to accelerate commercialization of graphene-like carbon nanomaterial
  iGii has secured £22.7 million (about US$30.4 million) in new funding to accelerate the commercialization and industrial adoption of its patented 3D graphene foam, Gii. The round comprises an £11.7 million (about US$15.7 million) Series B investment led by the Scottish National Investment Bank, with additional backing from PXN Ventures and Archangels, plus £11 million […]
• COnovate wins $1.25M DOE contract to scale domestic graphite-alternative battery anode
  COnovate (formerly SafeLi), a Wisconsin-based battery materials company, has been awarded a $1.25 million, 24-month development contract by the U.S. Department of Energy's Critical Minerals and Materials Accelerator Program to scale commercial-scale production of its eCOphite anode material. The award is administered under the DOE's Office of Critical Minerals and Energy Innovation, AMMTO Award Number […]
• UniSQ awarded ARC grant to develop self-healing graphene battery electrodes
  Researchers at the University of Southern Queensland (UniSQ), led by Professor Ashok Kumar Nanjundan, have been awarded A$1.3 million (about US$923,000) through the Australian Research Council's Future Fellowship scheme to develop self-healing sodium-ion battery electrodes that combine specially engineered, defect-rich graphene with dynamic polymer networks to repair mechanical damage during operation.Rechargeable batteries gradually lose performance […]
• Yonsei researchers turn graphene light patterns into unclonable security keys
  Researchers at Yonsei University have developed graphene diffractive zone plates (GDZPs) that generate spectrally programmable optical responses for hardware authentication, combining the devices with a vision transformer-based readout model to convert complex diffraction patterns into compact, repeatable binary security keys. Schematic of the GDZP-PUF system: RGB light striking the graphene zone plate produces wavelength-dependent diffraction […]
• NanoXplore reports FY2026 results as VoltaXplore pivots from EV to defense and drone markets
  NanoXplore has reported fiscal year 2026 results with total revenues of C$117.3 million (about US$84.3 million), down 9% from C$128.9 million (about US$92.6 million) the prior year, and a net loss of C$11.8 million (about US$8.5 million), compared to C$9.7 million (about US$6.9 million) in FY2025. Fourth-quarter revenue rose 7% year-over-year to C$33.9 million (about […]
• Graphene oxide sensing layer enables low-cost SPR detection of mercury, lead, and zinc in water
  Researchers at Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja, Escuela Superior Politécnica de Chimborazo (ESPOCH), Università della Calabria, and Universidad Ecotec have computationally designed and optimized a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor for detecting trace mercury, lead, and zinc ions in water, using a graphene oxide sensing layer atop an aluminum/aluminum oxide plasmonic stack on a borosilicate […]
