Argo Graphene Solutions reports positive initial results from GO-enhanced cement testing

In its initial testing, Argo found that adding only 0.05 wt.% graphene oxide – roughly five parts GO per 10,000 parts cement by weight – increased ultimate compressive strength by approximately 60% compared to control samples. Testing used ASTM-standard 2-inch by 2-inch cement specimens cured for seven days prior to compression testing, and the Company reports that the results were reproduced consistently across multiple independent test batches.

Argo Graphene Solutions has reported encouraging initial performance results from its graphene oxide (GO) cement additive program, using graphene produced through the proprietary STREAM™ graphene production platform licensed exclusively from Grapherry. In its initial testing, Argo found that adding only 0.05 wt.% graphene oxide – roughly five parts GO per 10,000 parts cement by weight – increased ultimate compressive strength by approximately 60% compared to control samples. Testing used ASTM-standard 2-inch by 2-inch cement specimens cured for seven days prior to compression testing, and the Company reports that the results were reproduced consistently across multiple independent test batches.
