Early results indicate positive forecasts for a graphene-based coating for commercial ship hulls.
A Western-Australian advanced battery anode materials and graphene additives provider has announced the first milestone in testing a graphene-based coating for the hull of commercial ships¹.
Talga Group LTD. has revealed that an inspection of the first ship coated with a graphene-based alternative to traditional ship hull coatings, Robin 1, which set sail in 2019, has weathered harsh sea conditions and the extreme demands of the commercial shipping industry remarkably well.
