Our work

The overall objective of the ARMS project (Atomic layer-coated gRaphene electrode-based Micro-flexible and Structural supercapacitors (ARMS)) is to integrate comprehensive materials and processes, including graphene-rich bio-based carbon materials and graphene-decorated carbon fibers, and to develop scalable and cost-effective atomic layer deposition (ALD) manufacturing technology to fabricate totally eco-friendly supercapacitors with energy density reaching > 50 Wh/kg that is comparable to batteries without sacrificing the power density, cycle life or eco-friendliness, and open up opportunities to establish a new value chain for supercapacitor manufacturing with European SMEs as key players.

ARMS unlocking innovation at GRAPHENE WEEK 2024 – Europe’s leading conference on graphene and 2D materials

The 19th edition of Europe’s leading Graphene and 2D materials conference, “Graphene Week 2024,” will take place in the Cubex Center in Prague, the Czech Republic, October 14 – 18, 2024. Project ARMS will participate in this important event, standing at the forefront of cutting-edge research, innovation, diversity, and technology. Our project representatives will not just co-host a workshop with our colleagues from the GRAPHERGIA project, but they will also present project ARMS at the Graphene Flagship Hall with our sibling projects.
