clamor for a few years, graphene industry application finally ushered in the dawn. China graphene Industry Alliance (hereinafter referred to as the “alliance”) recently held annual meeting, awarded the 2016 graphene Industry Award for outstanding contribution to four companies.

This is the award for the first time alliance. League Secretary General Li Yichun said that the graphene industry is in a critical period, the establishment of the award is to encourage enterprises in the field of exploration and breakthrough.

It is understood that the award is one of the conditions of application pioneered the development of new products, and has produced a total of more than 20 million yuan in sales.

The four obtained graphene Industry Award for outstanding contribution to the enterprise are: Changzhou sixth elements of new materials Limited by Share Ltd (hereinafter referred to as the “sixth elements”), Hong Na Dongguan new Mstar Technology Ltd (hereinafter referred to as “hung new material”), Polytron Technologies Inc (hereinafter referred to as “Ji’nan Quan Quan technology”) and Shenzhen Wang ene new materials Polytron Technologies Inc (hereinafter referred to as the “ene Wang new material).

The new material graphene conductive additives hung pioneered, mainly used in cathode materials of lithium battery. Although the material did not bring revolutionary changes to improve the discharge rate of lithium battery capacity density, charge, but decreased, the product cost price promotion effect is obvious. Because of this, the new product launch, has been BYD, Tianjin Lishen and China Xuan tech lithium battery industry leading enterprises to accept and bulk purchases. This also means that the application of graphene officially entered the commercial era in lithium battery. According to reports, the new material hung annual sales revenue reached billion yuan scale.

The sixth elements, to break the foreign monopoly, developed the first domestic graphene heavy anti-corrosion coatings, and the first to realize the industrial application. It is reported that graphene coatings are mainly used in wind turbine blades, to resist corrosion and individuals by measuring, the service life can be increased by 10 to 20 times. The product of this year sales of 30 million yuan, the company is now the production capacity from fifty thousand tons to expand tons.

Wang Quan technology and new material graphene products are mainly used in fields such as textile and clothing, including underwear Shengquan technology graphene with annual sales of 50 million yuan to 60 million yuan. Hoping the new material graphene heating sheet, and combined with the downstream more than and 10 companies jointly develop new products, industry chain enterprises jointly this year is expected to achieve sales of 500 million yuan.

According to reports, now the country has more than a dozen graphene conductive additives, coating production enterprise.

According to reports, because a large number of enterprises in the industrialization of graphene, graphene output this year is expected to reach 3 billion yuan, far more than 600 million yuan last year. Li Yichun said, there are a lot of companies are trying to industrialization, an estimated five or six new industrial application will break through the next year. By 2018, the output value of graphene is expected to reach 10 billion yuan, the whole industry will usher in the outbreak year.
