Uppsala University has unveiled a Sweden-based materials manufacturing spinout, Graphmatech, that will aim to commercialise technology for producing graphene at scale.

Graphene is a 2D carbon material, first isolated in 2004. The material’s strength, transparency and energy conduciveness have potentially far-reaching implications for the energy and electronics sectors.

Graphmatech claims its variant of the material, Aros Graphene, will be the first to retain these advantages when produced at scale and when rendered in 3D, potentially enabling manufacturing via 3D printer.
