By sharing our research with our customers, we believe help them drive their developments forward. We are committed to presenting our developments on a regular basis at exhibitions and conferences around the world.
Technical Application Notes (TAN)
UM has developed significant in-house knowledge on the behaviour and performance of graphene nanoplatelet modified coating formulations. These guidance notes have been designed to provide formulation insights to assist industry formulators and end-users in achieving a technical appreciation of our technology, and as a result, to understand how best to apply AGM’s Genable dispersions in both new and existing coatings.
