(TSXV: GMG) (\"GMG\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to release results of heat transfer demonstrations of Aluminium coated with THERMAL-XR® (TXR) powered by GMG Graphene, compared to uncoated bare Aluminium.Figure 1To view an enhanced version of Figure 1, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/148807_9cb01ed984bea824_001.jpgThe University of Queensland Materials Performance consultancy (\"UQMP\") verified that GMG's THERMAL-XR® when applied to aluminium reduces the surface temperature by approximately 15% in temperatures between 700C and 900C.GMG's experiment results are shown below. The same 10mm thick aluminium plate was divided into two parts, GMG's THERMAL-XR® was applied to the top side of one half of the plate, while the other remained uncoated. The same heat source was applied to the underside of both adjacent plates simultaneously. Temperature measurements were then taken from the top and bottom sides of both plates as the heat source was cycled up and down.Figure 2To view an enhanced version of Figure 2, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8082/148807_figure%202%20redone.jpgManaging Director and CEO, Craig Nicol stated \"This is a powerful demonstration of GMG's THERMAL-XR®'s ability to increase the transfer of heat. The graphene-enhanced heat transfer properties of THERMAL-XR® are apparently outweighing the traditional insulating effect of coatings. GMG believes the ability to increase heat transfer with a simple application of the technically advanced GMG THERMAL-XR® can make a significant contribution to improved performance and efficiency while reducing energy demand in a wide range of applications.\" When the THERMAL-XR® coating was applied to the top side of the 10mm aluminium plate, more heat transfer was observed away from the common heat source (compared to the panel that had no coating). Furthermore, the non-coated underside of the coated panel - being the side directly exposed to the heat source - remained approximately 15% cooler than the heat-exposed side of the uncoated panel, within the temperature range of 70° C to 90° C.
