SAFARI – Safe and sustainable by design graphene/MXenes hybrids

Project objectives:
The SAFARI project aims to develop new 2D materials using sustainable and safe processes. The project focuses on creating a hybrid formulation of MXenes and graphene (Gr), which are known to have unique and desirable properties such as thermal stability and electrical conductivity. The project aims to develop sustainable and safe materials that can be used in a wide range of applications such as bio-sensors, conductive ink and EMI shielding.

Results:
The project involves first trials of applications of the produced materials, including for sensors for the medical industry, as well as for water purification, lubrication or catalysis.
