he National Graphene Institute (NGI) is
the national centre for graphene research in
the UK. Its unrivalled range of facilities allow
world-leading academics and their industrial
partners to work side-by-side on new and
pioneering applications.
Industry has a vital role to play in how the world's first 2D material will
be utilised. Research is nothing without development. The NGI adopts a
flexible approach to working with companies to encourage collaboration,
engagement and fresh thinking.
National Graphene Institute collaborative projects include:
Demonstrations of new concepts, applications and
fundamental studies
Demonstrating graphene's potential by producing new concept
products and processes
Development of low-cost scalable manufacturing methods for
high-quality graphene
Process stabilisation, achieving reproducible quality, high
manufacturing yields
Graphene standardisation, quality control and health and safety

"The National Graphene Institute is
fundamentally important to continue the
world-class graphene research started in
Manchester. Our researchers and scientists
are able to collaborate with colleagues from
other universities and from some of the
world's leading companies, which can only
serve to enchance scientific research"
Sir Kostya Novoselov, Nobel laureate
