Panel in shape of Gothic arch with polychrome tile decoration in formal floral pattern, possibly mediaeval Moorish, unsigned, Europe, 1200-1800 Panel in shape of Gothic arch with polychrome tile decoration in formal floral pattern 1200-1800
Sample of concrete enhanced with 0.05% graphene after 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.
