HydroGraph Clean Power (CSE:HG) is collaborating with EMP Shield to develop electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding using high-purity graphene.
HydroGraph’s nanoscale graphene is conductive, lightweight, and corrosion resistant, making it ideal for EMI application. The two companies are working to develop coatings and insulated barriers to protect electronic devices by blocking unwanted disruptions or transmission of electronic data.
EMI is a common threat to all electronics that is generated by lightning, solar storms and flares and high-power microwave weapons. Conductive or absorptive materials and coatings can protect electronic equipment from EMI.
“It is an exciting opportunity to be the first company to utilize graphene-enhanced EMI coatings,” EMP Shield’s founder and lead engineer, Tim Carty, said in a news release. “This fits well with our product offerings and will benefit the goals of our new $1.9 billion, gallium nitride microchip foundry being built near Burlington, Kansas, expected to be completed by the end of 2026.”
“EMI shielding is just one of the many critical uses we are discovering for graphene,” HydroGraph CEO Stuart Jara said in a statement. “EMI interference with your TV or smartphone might be an inconvenience, but interference with a bank account, pacemaker or military facilities would be extremely detrimental. The prospect of HydroGraph’s graphene fortifying the devices that make our world run is truly exciting.”
According to Vantage Market Research, the global graphene market was valued at US$90 million in 2019 and is projected to reach a value of US$2.5 billion globally by 2028. Data from analyst firm MarketsAndMarkets reports the global EMI shielding market was valued at US$6.6 billion in 2022 and is expected to increase at a compound annual growth rate of 5.4 per cent from 2022 to 2027 to reach US$8.6 billion.
Based out of Burlington, Kansas, EMP Shield develops protective devices from destructive electromagnetic interference.
HydroGraph Clean Power Inc. funds and commercializes green, cost-effective processes to manufacture high-purity graphene, hydrogen and other strategic materials in bulk.
HydroGraph Clean Power Inc. was up 5.8 per cent, opening trading Monday at $0.090 per share.
