First Graphene Limited announced a new programme for the Vortex Fluidic Device (VFD) process technology to run at the University of Manchester. During the programme, the device will be located within the laboratories of First Graphene Ltd. at the Graphene Engineering & Innovation Centre (GEIC), University of Manchester. The VFD is a unique process technology developed by Professor Raston which is capable of delivering highly controlled chemistry by vortex mediated processing. Of particular interest to the graphene and 2D materials industry is the use of VFD for sustainable manufacture of graphene oxide and the controlled exfoliation of non-carbon 2D materials for electronic and catalyst applications. Working with the capabilities at the GEIC, 2D Fluidics Pty Ltd. and First Graphene Ltd. researchers will lead the characterisation of the produced 2D materials and develop scale-up plans for these novel processes.
