Summary

Adding small amounts of graphene to PE films makes them much stronger, allowing them to use less material while still improving performance. The result is a reduction in raw material, less embedded carbon and a superior product making graphene enhanced PE films a real game changer. This webinar will show how a pair of companies collaborated to develop this advanced PE film and to bring it to the commercial market. You will learn how graphene makes this happen and what kind of performance improvements and material savings are being achieved in the real world. Presented by Gerdau Graphene and providing data from Packseven, this webinar is hosted by The Graphene Council and is FREE to attend. The presentation will be recorded, and registrants will receive a copy of the presentation slides. This webinar should be of interest to all plastics producers, product developers and any company that uses PE stretch films. Please share the link to this webinar with your professional networks.
