​First Graphene updates on graphene-enhanced fire-resistant construction materials testing and patent filing 

First Graphene has provided an update on its graphene-enhanced fire-retardant materials developed for construction and housing. Novel flame-resistant material containing PureGRAPH®, developed by strategic UK-based partner Vector Group, has been filed for patent in Europe, Asia and the United States.

Recent testing of the graphene-enhanced material has reportedly demonstrated excellent flame resistance and mechanical performance, showcasing the fundamental value of PureGRAPH® to the products. Results include a self-extinguishing rate of 100% in various formulations containing a range of
PureGRAPH® loadings, which is a significant improvement in performance compared to conventional non-halogenated materials.
