Applied Graphene Materials said its graphene technology Genable 3000 delivered outstanding anti-corrosion performance enhancement results that led the business to be nominated as a finalist for the Materials Performance Corrosion Innovation Award.
Genable is a unique metal-free additive that transforms coatings and paints enabling them to uniquely withstand aggressive corrosion in automotive, heavy industry and harsh marine environments.
Recently, it was announced that James Briggs Limited intends to bring a new range of aerosol automotive paint primers containing AGM graphene to market.
“The two-year development collaboration between JBL and AGM has resulted in our first products coming to fruition for the automotive market," said Jim Miller, JBL's commercial director. "Initial feedback from the market is very positive, with customers keen to see innovative products with genuine substantive performance improvements, which these products deliver through utilization of AGM’s graphene dispersion technology.”
Winners will be announced at the CORROSION Conference 2019 in Nashville, Tennessee.
