Manchester spin-out 2-DTech expands its graphene offering with the introduction of chemical vapour deposition techniques.
2-DTech, a spin-out of Manchester University, is expanding its graphene offering following advances in creating graphene products using chemical vapour deposition techniques (CVD).
The CVD techniques allow the firm to produce a higher quality graphene, which the company says outperforms the competition in terms of low defect density and mobility.
Spun out in 2013 and acquired by Versarien in 2014, the new manufacturing approach gives the Manchester firm an edge in the increasingly competitive graphene space, and helps maintain Manchester – the university were graphene was first discovered – as one of the forefront centres for graphene research and development.
Nigel Salter, 2-DTech’s Managing Director, said: “The quality of our CVD graphene has already enabled us to add highly regarded academic establishments and prestigious research institutions to our client base – from UK, Germany, Japan and Korea. By further broadening the scope of our CVD offering we will be able to address a greater variety of application demands.”
