First Graphene Limited announced the publication of a scientific paper written by researchers at the University of Adelaide, which describes a "green" process to improve the compatibility of First Graphene's PureGRAPH® materials in a range of systems. The paper, titled Highly Water Dispersible Functionalised Graphene by Thermal Thiol- ene Click Chemistry, was written by a team of researchers led by Professor Dusan Losic, leader of the Nano Research Group at The University of Adelaide and Director of ARC Graphene Research Hub. It has been peer reviewed and was published on 25th May 2021 in science and engineering journal Materials. The researchers successfully "functionalised" PureGRAPH® graphene supplied by First Graphene. The functionalisation process involves chemically bonding molecules to graphene platelets. One end of the molecule will bond to the graphene surface and the other free end interacts with the medium that the graphene is added into. This improves the level of dispersion and interaction of the graphene platelets with the medium, further enhancing its properties and improving its dispersion in other composite systems such as polymers and rubbers. PureGRAPH® has a broad range of applications which can be further expanded by adding additional finishing steps, generally referred to a functionalising.
