Cell Phones, Sporting Goods, And Soon, Cars: Ford Innovates With “Miracle” Material, Powerful Graphene For Vehicle Parts

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

  • Graphene is a material used in coating, cell phones and even some sporting goods – and soon, will be used under the hood in #Ford vehicles, a first in automotive
  • Ford, along with Eagle Industries and XG Sciences, has found a way to use a very small amount of graphene while achieving major property improvements – more lightweight, better heat conductivity and noise reduction – a breakthrough application
  • In vehicles, graphene – which is lightweight and incredibly strong – will act like a pair of super-powered, noise cancelling headphones, reducing sound inside the cabin and creating a quieter ride

DEARBORN, Mich., Oct. 9, 2018 – It’s in cell phones and even some sporting goods – and soon, for the first time in #automotive, it will be under the hood in #Ford vehicles. #Ford Motor Company is announcing the use of graphene – a two-dimensional nanomaterial – in vehicle parts, timely with National Nanotechnology Day.

Graphene has recently generated the enthusiasm and excitement in the #automotive industry for paint, polymer and battery applications.

Dubbed a “miracle material” by some engineers, graphene is 200 times stronger than steel and one of the most conductive materials in the world. It is a great sound barrier and is extremely thin and flexible. Graphene is not economically viable for all applications, but #Ford, in collaboration with Eagle Industries and XG Sciences, has found a way to use small amounts in fuel rail covers, pump covers and front engine covers to maximize its benefits.
