Adding graphene as a complimentary additive to the existing range of anti-corrosion products can extend the life of these coatings. Incorporating a graphene nanoplatelet dispersion from Universal Matter is simple – just add and stir!
You can offer your customers a heavy metal free, environmentally friendly alternative to zinc based chemistry.
Working with UM adds value for you as the coating innovator, as well as extending the service life of the coated asset – A true Win-Win!
Utilising Universal Matter’s graphene nanoplatelet technology, innovative company James Briggs launched an automotive anti-corrosion respray primer offering market-leading performance.
Following the completion of the formulation development work, Universal Matter continued to support James Briggs’ development with a forerunner to our Innovation Accelerator development program by running the coated panels in UM’s prohesion salt spray cabinet – the result was OUTSTANDING.

Universal Matter uses patent-protected technology to produce both the standard GenableTM product ranges and custom dispersions to meet everyone’s needs.
Graphene synergies allow you to get the best of both active and barrier additives and benefit from enhanced corrosion protection.
Incorporating an Universal Matter graphene dispersion as part of a 3 coat system gives a 50% reduction in corrosion creep, compared to commercially available 4 coat systems after 1440 hours of neutral salt spray.
Testing using ASTM G85 Prohesion allows for stronger correlation with natural exposure, as opposed to ASTM B117 (Continuous Salt Spray). The prohesion test was extended from 1000 to 5000 hours by using graphene in combination with metal free active inhibitors.
The synergies enabled through adding graphene offer extended durability for potential coating applications in harsh C4 and C5 environments.
Further work is currently underway looking at performance under Continuous Salt Spray and further significant cost optimization.
