Graphene Latest News and Updates
CoatingSolution4U won a Bronze Edison Award on April 20, 2026 for SlurryXpert, a real-time diagnostic system that tracks battery electrode slurry behavior before coating defects spread through production.
CATL said on April 21 that its Naxtra sodium-ion battery has moved into GWh-scale industrialization and is set for full-scale mass production by the end of 2026 after the company said it solved four manufacturing bottlenecks tied to moisture control, gas generation, aluminum foil adhesion and self-forming anode systems.
Neoen has unveiled plans for a 248 MW/496 MWh battery in Vernou-la-Celle-sur-Seine, east of Paris, that it says will become France’s largest storage asset and the first connected to RTE’s 400 kV transmission network.
Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science have reported a low-defect method for growing centimeter-scale 2D magnetic chromium chloride films, a fabrication step that could help move the material class from lab-scale flakes toward usable electronic and spintronic platforms.
Graphene Manufacturing Group said its six-minute-charging graphene aluminium-ion battery cells doubled energy density to 49 Wh/kg, a development that brings the program closer to customer testing later in 2026 and small commercial production in 2027.
First Graphene said a five-month UK production trial with FP McCann made more than 10,000 graphene-enhanced roof tiles while cutting cradle-to-gate emissions by up to 14%, a concrete step toward commercial construction use.
