(\"\n \n Black Swan\n \n \" or the \"\n \n Company\n \n \") (TSXV: SWAN) (OTCQB: BSWGF) (Frankfurt: R96) is proud to unveil its new Graphene Enhanced Masterbatch (\"\n \n GEM\n \n \"), GEM S27M, the latest innovation in the Company's GraphCore™-01 product line (\"\n \n GraphCore\n \n \"). This new offering is a 10% graphene nanoplatelet (\"\n \n GNP\n \n \") masterbatch in high-density polyethylene (\"\n \n HDPE\n \n \"), designed to deliver transformative benefits.\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n HDPE is renowned for its high strength-to-density ratio, making it ideal for packaging applications. When enhanced with graphene, HDPE exhibits improved mechanical properties, including increased strength and durability, ensuring better performance in demanding applications, notably in packaging and films, such as plastics bottles and garbage bags.\n \n \n The introduction of GEM S27M marks a significant advancement in sustainable packaging. By blending this new HDPE masterbatch with recycled polyethylene (\"\n \n PE\n \n \"), Black Swan allows its customers to enhance material performance while demonstrating a commitment to sustainability.\n \n \n \n Chris Herron\n \n , Vice-President of Research and Product Development of Black Swan, commented: \"When polymers are recycled, some of the original properties are often reduced. The addition of small amounts of graphene, typically less than 1% loading, reinforces and enhances the original mechanical performance parameters.\"\n \n \n GEM S27M is the fifth GEM of the GraphCore line of products and is available in large volumes with short lead-time. Black Swan also recently launched the following products, all issued from its GraphCore Powder (GC1004):\n \n \n \n GEM X23M for use in Polypropylene, a commercial product typically u...
