Adisyn Says Low-Temperature Graphene Film Could Open a Semiconductor Path Beyond Copper Interconnects
Adisyn said on April 20, 2026, that it had demonstrated continuous graphene formation on a 1-centimeter coupon using an industrial atomic layer deposition system at temperatures below 450C, a milestone it says could help address copper interconnect limits in advanced chips.
WEG Launches Low-Temperature Cure Powder Coating as Coaters Push to Cut Oven Energy Use
WEG has launched a powder coating with low-temperature curing technology designed for plastics, composites and other heat-sensitive substrates, a move that could help industrial coaters lower oven temperatures and energy use while expanding powder coating to more demanding applications.
IEA says battery storage was the fastest-growing power technology in 2025
The International Energy Agency says battery storage was the fastest-growing power technology in 2025, with global additions reaching 108 GW and lithium-iron phosphate cells accounting for about 90% of deployments.
MIT says light-activated gel could open new paths for wearables and soft robotics
MIT researchers reported a light-activated gel that could advance ionotronics, a field that uses ions to transfer data instead of conventional electrical circuits. The work, published on April 16, 2026, is aimed at materials that can better bridge electronics and biological tissue.
Sparc records first commercial sale of its graphene additive for protective coatings
Sparc Technologies said on December 19, 2025, that it secured the first commercial sale of its ecosparc graphene additive for solvent-based protective coatings, marking the product’s first revenue and a new commercialization step for graphene-enabled anticorrosion materials.
Voltavate wins $3.55 million to push battery separator technology into pilot production
Voltavate has secured $3.55 million in grant funding from Australia’s renewable energy agency to advance a battery separator platform from laboratory development into pilot-scale manufacturing, a step that could reduce supply-chain dependence for battery makers if the technology proves out in cell testing.
