The overall aim of this project is to validate and standardise measurement and characterisation methods for the chemical and structural properties of graphene in powders and liquid dispersions for industrial applications.
This will overcome a "what is my material?" barrier for both users and producers leading to well-characterised highly tailored graphene, graphene oxide and chemically functionalised graphene. This will maximise innovation and competitiveness of European industries across the supply chains in multiple sectors including the energy sector, photovoltaics, lithium ion batteries, flexible electronics, composites, consumer products, novel coatings, clothing, automotive and aerospace industries.
This will be achieved via validation in pre-normative VAMAS interlaboratory studies and development and publication of international graphene measurement standards under the auspices of ISO TC 229 “Nanotechnologies”.
