Sparc Technologies said on December 19, 2025, that it secured the first commercial sale of its ecosparc graphene additive for solvent-based protective coatings, marking the product’s first revenue and a new commercialization step for graphene-enabled anticorrosion materials.
Scientists have reported a self-healing epoxy-silane graphene oxide coating that maintained strong corrosion resistance in saltwater testing and recovered protective performance after scratches, a result that could matter for industrial assets exposed to harsh environments.
Graphene Manufacturing Group says its aluminum-ion battery now reaches 49 Wh/kg in testing, up from 26 Wh/kg in December, a gain the company says moves the cell closer to commercial validation.
Black Semiconductor has secured €211 million in support for its Aachen graphene photonics project, a financing package aimed at building a 300-millimeter pilot line for chip interconnects based on integrated graphene photonics.
Allnex said it will bring a slate of new waterborne, solventborne, powder and radiation-curable coating technologies to ACS 2026, with products aimed at lower VOCs, faster cure and tighter compliance requirements.
Graphene Manufacturing Group said its graphene aluminium-ion battery cells have doubled in energy density to 49 Wh/kg, sharpening a commercialization roadmap that calls for customer testing in 2026 and small-scale production in 2027.
