GMG'S THERMAL-XR DEMONSTRATES POTENTIAL FOR ELECTRONICS HEAT SINK MINIATURIZATION AND EFFICIENCY
Graphene Manufacturing Group Ltd. has provided a business update on the commercialization progress of Thermal-XR powered by Graphene Manufacturing graphene.
Customer engagement update
Graphene Manufacturing continues to make progress in testing with companies in multiple industries for the use of Thermal-XR in their products, including on heat sinks for electronics.
Heat sink miniaturization
Third party verified modelling demonstrates that applying Thermal-XR to a heat sink could reduce its size by up to 39 per cent while maintaining equivalent thermal performance, offering the potential for weight and material cost savings.
Global printed circuit board production is projected to reach 530 million square metres annually by the year 2030, or about 5.3 trillion printed circuit boards. As PCB density increases, higher current loads lead to more heat, with 5.2 billion units expected to require heat sinks for cooling. Thermal-XR coated on the heat sinks, enhances the heat sink efficiency, enabling smaller heat sinks and more compact PCB assemblies. The total amount of Thermal-XR that could be used for this application to improve performance is 26.5 million litres per annum by 2030, assuming 0.1 per cent will use the coating.
Graphene Manufacturing's managing director and chief executive officer, Craig Nicol, commented: "Heat sinks are a critical component of modern electronics, but they come with various challenges, especially as devices become smaller, faster and more powerful. GMG's Thermal-XR offers a potential solution in heat sink miniaturization, enabling up to 39-per-cent size reduction while maintaining thermal performance. This has the potential to not only cut material costs but also unlock new opportunities for compact and efficient electronics designs, addressing the rising thermal management demands of the global printed circuit board market."
About Thermal-XR powered by Graphene Manufacturing graphene
Thermal-XR coating system is a unique method of improving the thermal heat transfer of heat exchange surfaces. The process coats and protects heat exchange surfaces while increasing the heat transfer rate by leveraging the physics of Graphene Manufacturing graphene, resulting in an efficiency improvement and a potential power reduction.
About Graphene Manufacturing Group Ltd.
Graphene Manufacturing is a clean technology company which seeks to offer energy-saving and energy storage solutions, enabled by graphene, including that manufactured in-house, through a proprietary production process. Graphene Manufacturing has developed a proprietary production process to decompose natural gas (that is, methane) into its elements, carbon (as graphene), hydrogen and some residual hydrocarbon gases. This process produces high-quality, low-cost, scalable, tunable and low/no-contaminant graphene suitable for use in clean technology and other applications.
The company's present focus is to derisk and develop commercial scale-up capabilities and secure market applications. In the energy savings segment, Graphene Manufacturing has focused on graphene enhanced heating, ventilation and air conditioning coating (or energy-saving coating), lubricants and fluids.
In the energy storage segment, Graphene Manufacturing and the University of Queensland are working collaboratively with financial support from the Australian government to progress research and development and commercialization of graphene aluminum-ion batteries.
Graphene Manufacturing's four critical business objectives are:
- Produce graphene and improve/scale cell production processes;
- Build revenue from energy-saving products;
- Develop next-generation battery;
- Develop supply chain, partners and project execution capability.
We seek Safe Harbor.
