I-Aquatic Leisure Technologies (ALT) isanda kwethula i-graphene-reinforced glass fiber reinforced composite (GFRP) ichibi lokubhukuda.Inkampani ithe indawo yokubhukuda ye-graphene nanotechnology etholwe kusetshenziswa i-graphene modified resin ehlanganiswe nokukhiqizwa kwe-GFRP yendabuko ilula, inamandla, futhi ihlala isikhathi eside kunamachibi endabuko e-GFRP.

Ngo-2018, i-ALT yathintana nozakwethu wephrojekthi kanye nenkampani yaseWestern Australia i-First Graphene (FG), engumphakeli wemikhiqizo ye-graphene esebenza kahle kakhulu.Ngemva kweminyaka engaphezu kwengu-40 yokukhiqiza amachibi okubhukuda e-GFRP, i-ALT ibilokhu ibheka izixazululo ezingcono zokumunca umswakama.Nakuba ingaphakathi lechibi le-GFRP livikelwe ungqimba oluphindwe kabili lwejazi lejeli, ingaphandle lithinteka kalula umswakama ovela enhlabathini ezungezile.

U-Neil Armstrong, uMphathi Wezohwebo we-First Graphene Composites, uthe: Amasistimu e-GFRP kulula ukumunca amanzi ngoba aqukethe amaqembu asebenzayo angasabela ngamanzi amuncwa nge-hydrolysis, okubangela ukuthi amanzi angene ku-matrix, futhi amabhamuza angena ngaphakathi kungenzeka.Abakhiqizi basebenzisa amasu ahlukahlukene okunciphisa ukungena kwamanzi ngaphandle kwamachibi e-GFRP, njengokwengeza umgoqo we-vinyl ester esakhiweni se-laminate.Kodwa-ke, i-ALT yayifuna inketho eqinile kanye namandla akhuphukayo okugoba ukuze isize ichibi layo ligcine umumo walo futhi limelane nengcindezi evela ku-backfill kanye nengcindezi ye-hydrostatic noma umthwalo we-hydrodynamic.

Nakuba i-First Graphene yasiza ekudaleni ama-laminates e-GFRP agcwele i-graphene embonini yasolwandle nezinhlelo zokugcina amanzi, amachibi okubhukuda aseyinsimu entsha.Ukuze kutholakale ukwakheka okuhle kwe-PureGRAPH® graphene nanosheet powder yamachibi okubhukuda, inkampani yenza ukuhlolwa kwamandla okuguquguqukayo kanye nokuhlola ukumelana namanzi.U-Armstrong uthe: Sizame amamaki ahlukene nokugxilisa ingqondo ukuthola ingxube efaneleka kakhulu yokwengeza inhlaka.

Ezinyangeni ezimbalwa, inkampani yafakazela ukuthi ukuxuba inani elincane le-PureGRAPH ne-polyester styrene resin kanye neziqinisekiso ze-fiber zengilazi eziqotshiwe kukhiqiza i-GFRP eyayinesisindo esilula, iqina ngo-30%, futhi ingena kalula ekusakazeni kwamanzi.Ukwengezwa kwe-graphene kunciphisa i-coefficient yokusabalalisa amanzi izikhathi ezingu-10.
