Black Swan Graphene (TSX-V:SWAN) has announced that it has entered into a preferred compounder agreement with Modern Dispersions Inc (MDI), a US-based manufacturer of thermoplastic compounds and concentrates.
Under the terms of the agreement, MDI will produce Graphene Enhanced Masterbatch (GEM) using Black Swan’s Graphene Nanoplatelets, with Black Swan serving as MDI’s preferred supplier of graphene materials.
Black Swan highlighted that the GEM platform is designed to offer several processing advantages, including the elimination of dry nanomaterial handling, improved dispersion consistency, and simplified extrusion procedures.
As part of the collaboration, both companies will promote GEM products globally through their commercial networks, aiming to expand the adoption of graphene-enhanced materials across a variety of industries.
"This collaboration represents a significant step forward in our mission to deliver high-performance graphene-enhanced materials to various industries,” Black Swan CEO Simon Marcotte said.
“By combining MDI's manufacturing expertise with our advanced graphene technologies, we are well-positioned to address the evolving needs of the market."
Marton Kozma, MDI president, added: "Partnering with Black Swan allows us to integrate cutting-edge graphene materials into our product offerings.
“We look forward to working together to develop and promote innovative solutions that meet the high-performance demands of our customers."
