Boosting the performance of cellulose-based materials and applications with Aros Graphene

Important results from the project

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** We developed 3 technology demonstrators, where graphene was used to improve the conductive-, electrochemical- and/or mechanical-properties of composites. These demonstrators were 1. Conductive inks enhanced with graphene additives; 2. Conductive adhesives realized by the addition of graphene; Highly conductive conductor tracks of graphene/metal composites. We also got by help from partners, an overview of the requirements/wishes - and were able to benchmark our results against these and plan for further activities after the project.

Expected long term effects

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The results and discussions have given us requirements specs as well as better market analyzes. We expect this to lead to a better basis for priorities and a focus for future development work.

Approach and implementation

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The approach of having discussions with several interests, before the demonstrators started - gave us focus on more useful results. Both technically and market-wise, we gained insights even before the demonstrators developed. However, this year it was difficult to work together in the lab, or to conduct informal discussions and this was probably a disadvantage, especially for the pace of development. However, we have a good idea of where we should focus our resources now after the project - and the work on this is ongoing.
