Graphene 3D Lab Inc. and Taulman 3D LLC have announced today the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MOU), laying the foundation for the joint research and development of 3D printing materials.
Graphene 3D Lab, based in Calverton, New York is in the business of developing, manufacturing, and marketing proprietary graphene-based nanocomposite materials for various types of 3D printing, including fused filament fabrication. In September the company submitted a provisional application for a patent for recent innovations in the materials and methods of 3D printable batteries.
Taulman 3D is a supplier of high-strength filaments for FFF 3D printing. The company's products include: Nylon 618, Nylon 645, Bridge Nylon and t-glase PET 3D printing filaments.
As outlined in the MOU, Graphene 3D and Taulman will enter into co-development of a graphene-enhanced nylon material for 3D printing. The agreement also grants Graphene 3D exclusive distribution rights for Taulman's Nylon 680, a novel high-strength 3D printing material, for a period of two years in the USA, Canada, and Mexico. Sales of Nylon 680 are expected to begin in quarter 1 of 2015.
Graphene 3D CEO Daniel Stolyarov commented, "Taulman is a leading supplier of nylon materials, with a high level of experience in both distribution and development of proprietary filaments. I see a high potential for synergy between our two companies and look forward to continuing this collaboration in both business and research."
Thomas Martzall, CEO at Taulman 3D, added "There is a growing need for high-strength 3D printer materials with functional properties. By partnering with Graphene 3D, a company with a sound foundation in materials R&D and commercialization, we open the path to bring such materials to market."
