UE: Italcementi chosen for Graphene project
Italcementi has been selected to take part in the Graphene Flagship Project Consortium, a European research project on the development of new materials technologies with overall financing for one billion euro. The goal is to fully develop the potential of graphene and other recently discovered two-dimensional materials. Italcementi will act of group leader and coordinator of the Cemphene project, which aims to further develop pollution absorbing photocatalytic cements for which it holds the patent and are commercially known by the brand “i.active”. With graphene the aim is to increase the effectiveness of the photocatalytic principle and extend its sensitivity to poor lighting conditions.
