General description

Inkjet printable graphene dispersion is a promising candidate for organic and printed electronics in a variety of applications such as sensors, conductors, supercapacitors etc. Graphene-based functional devices and films can be designed by the inkjet printing process, by a controlled expulsion of the fluid from the nozzle.
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product belongs to Enabling category of greener alternatives thus aligns with "Design for energy efficency". Graphene inks are highly conductive, low cost and super flexible.
