Haydale Graphene Industries plc
("Haydale", the "Group" or the "Company")
Patent Grant in Australia
Haydale Graphene Industries plc (AIM: HAYD), the Group focused
on enabling technology for the commercialisation of graphene and
other nano materials, is pleased to announce receipt of the
Certificate of Grant from the Patent Office of the Commonwealth of
Australia. This grant relates to the key process patent underlying
the Company's proprietary functionalisation treatment and is one of
a number arising from the families of patent applications
surrounding the Haydale plasma process.
Furthermore, as announced on 14 October 2015, the European
Patent Office (EPO) duly granted the European patent to Haydale on
4 November 2015 and the Company has now received the Certificate of
Grant from the EPO in respect of this grant.
Ray Gibbs, CEO at Haydale, commented:
"As with the earlier grant by the EPO, the patent award in
Australia covers all nano particles, not just graphene, which
provides Haydale with the protection to develop an extended range
of nano materials. I am pleased that we now have our IP protected
in China, Australia and Europe. Part of our strategy for growth is
the continual development of our technology and the protection of
this IP through patent applications. I look forward to being able
to announce further patent awards in other territories in due
course."

About Haydale
Haydale has developed a patented scalable plasma process to
functionalise graphene and other nanomaterials. This enabling
technology can provide Haydale with a rapid and highly
cost-efficient method of supplying tailored solutions to enhance
applications for both raw material suppliers and product
manufacturers.
Functionalisation is carried out through a low-pressure plasma
process that treats both mined, organic fine powder and other
synthetically produced nanomaterial powders, producing high-quality
few layered graphenes and graphene nanoplatelets. The process can
functionalise with a range of chemical groups, with the level of
functionalisation tailored to the customer's needs. Good dispersion
improves the properties and performance of the host material and
ensures the final product performs as specified.
The Haydale plasma process does not use wet chemistry, nor does
it damage the material being processed; rather, it can clean up any
impurities inherent in the raw material. The technology is a low
energy user and most importantly environmentally friendly. The
Haydale process is an enabling technology, allowing the Company to
work with a raw material producer who seeks to add value to the
base product and tailor the outputs to meet the target applications
of the end user.
Haydale, based in South Wales and housed in a purpose-built
facility for processing and handling nanomaterials, is facilitating
the application of graphenes and other nanomaterials in fields such
as inks, sensors, energy storage, photovoltaics, composites, paints
and coatings.
