Monochromator from Beamline 2.3 of the Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory, Daresbury, Cheshire, in use from 1993 to 2008. Monochromator Scientific Instruments & Research
Sample of concrete enhanced with 0.1% graphene before compression strength testing. One of four test samples of concrete enhanced with graphene, tested at the Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre (GEIC), University of Manchester, by Dr Lisa Scullion, 2021. The testing process supported the development of a new industrial product, Concretene, produced by Nationwide Engineering, Wiltshire. Production of cement for concrete in the building industry is one of the leading causes of global carbon dioxide emissions. The addition of up to 1% of graphene strengthens concrete by around 30% compared to standard concrete, meaning significantly less is needed to achieve the equivalent structural performance, reducing carbon footprint and costs.
