274: Graphene at Scale: Turning This Wonder Material Into Industrial Reality

Graphene has been called one of the most extraordinary materials ever discovered. It’s exceptionally strong, lightweight, electrically conductive, and thermally conductive. But more than a decade after capturing the world’s attention, one major question remains: why hasn’t it transformed manufacturing the way so many people predicted?

On this episode, Brad Larschan and Kevin Wyss of Avadain join the show to discuss the past bottlenecks with graphene production and what their company is doing to change this. Avadain is an advanced-materials company commercializing patented technology for producing what it calls Large, Thin, Defect-Free, or LTDF, graphene flakes.

On this episode, we’ll talk about why all graphene isn’t created equal, what Avadain believes it has solved on the manufacturing side, and, especially for our audience, what large-scale availability of high-quality graphene could mean for composites and advanced materials.
