Nano Graphene Platelets (NGP) & Graphene Nano Platelets (GNP) are the same material. They are similar to carbon nanotubes but have twice the surface area. Nano Graphene Platelets NGPs/GNP should outperform all other nanomaterials on the market.
Features and characteristics of NANO Graphene Platelets (NGP) From Angstron Materials
- Nano Graphene Platelets (NGP) can be produced as a low cost oxide free pristine NGP product with widths of 0.5-20 microns in length and thicknesses ranging from 0.34 to 100 nanometers .
- It has Ultra-high Young’s modulus (approximately 1,000 GPa) and high strength (~ 130 GPa estimated).
- NGP can provide an effective moisture barrier in composite materials
- The Plane Electrical Conductivity is excellent (up to ~ 20,000 S/cm).
- The electrical conductivity is similar to copper
- The density of NGP is four times lower than copper
- NGP can be an essential constituent for electrodes
- The Thermal Conductivity of NGP is five times that of copper (up to ~ 5,300 W@K-1).
- Because of being essentially a opened up Carbon Nano Tube NGP has high specific Surface Area (up to ~ 2,675 m2/g).
- NGP has a Low Density (2.25 g/cm3) much lower than steel but can exceed the strength of steel, NGP is 50 times stronger than steel
- NGP has very good resistance to gas permeation.
- NGP can be dispersed in many polymers and common solvents.
- NGP as a Nano-Scaled Graphene Platelets is a raw material that can be used as a filler for composites or essential constituent for electrodes.
- High loading in Nano composites, up to 75 wt%
