Another company Dr. Tour's nano technology discoveries to REALLY keep an eye on is called:
Universal Matter
ABOUT UNIVERSAL MATTER
Universal Matter has developed cleaner, faster, and less expensive technology to commercialize graphene, a carbon-based nanomaterial with multiple applications. Our proprietary Flash Joule Heating process can convert inexpensive carbon sources into ultra-thin graphene layers with an almost unlimited number of applications.
Headquartered in Burlington, Ontario, Canada, with U.S. headquarters in Houston, Universal Matter’s vision is to build on its strong R&D foundation to scale its production process and become the world’s leading supplier of lower cost and higher quality graphene materials from petcoke, agricultural feedstocks, recycled plastic, recycled rubber and coal.
Currently this is not a public company. Dr Tour holds the patents..he tried to get American companies (specifically headquartered in Houston because he lives there and plans to continue teaching at Rice University) to get involved and run with this truly mind boggling technology that turns ANY carbon based object into Graphene. No takers in Houston stepped up so they put together a group out of Canada. Just so you know what we're talking about when you hear the word 'Graphene' it is just one atom thick (or thin, depending on how you think about it), graphene is among the strongest materials in the known universe, with 100 times the strength of steel, an astonishing amount of flexibility, and a whole lot of other talents lurking beneath the surface.
Since Universal Matter Ltd is not yet public company I plan to track its progress and activity here on the WBTNF board.
