However, we discovered the ability to produce a revolutionary new material: three-dimensional graphene. This new supermaterial boasts remarkable properties and enormous potential for innovative products and significant decarbonization effects.Since 2015, our mission has been to take Lyten 3D Graphene from the laboratory to commercial scale and apply it across a wide range of industries and applications. We aim to establish a new global industry for “decarbonization-multiplying” materials by sequestering carbon in the form of high-value foundational materials that can be used to reduce the carbon footprint of countless applications in #J-18808-Ljbffr
