Graphmatech has launched its AROS Polyamide-Graphene composites, which are reported to reduce hydrogen leakage by 83% compared to traditional commercial storage solutions.
The graphene-enhanced material will be dedicated to hydrogen storage and transport applications. Graphmatech expects the solution to be implemented in approximately 1,000 light commercial vehicles (LCVs) and 500 heavy commercial vehicles by 2027.
The composite combines polyamide grades with graphene, “effectively blocking hydrogen from escaping while also making the plastic stronger.” H2 View understands that the material is suited for type IV composite pressure vessels (CPVs).
