Sparc Technologies has announced positive results from 16-week cyclic corrosion testing of HydroGraph Clean Power‘s Fractal Graphene within Sparc’s ecosparc® additive in solvent-based protective coatings. A commercial solvent-based coating dosed with ecosparc® containing HydroGraph’s graphene reportedly showed a 25% improvement in corrosion resistance (scribe creep) compared to the same coating unmodified, under ISO 12944-6 testing methodology corresponding to C5 Very High (C5-VH) durability.
The result builds on water-based testing Sparc conducted with HydroGraph’s graphene last year, which showed up to 60% improvement in corrosion resistance and led the two companies to sign a Letter of Intent (LOI) in March 2026 to evaluate HydroGraph’s Fractal Graphene in ecosparc® more broadly. Extended 25-week (4,200-hour) cyclic corrosion testing is now underway, with results expected in November 2026. Subject to a positive outcome there, Sparc and HydroGraph plan to negotiate a definitive commercial supply and collaboration agreement.
