("Directa Plus" or the "Company")
US IP Portfolio Strengthened with Patent Grant for Liquid G+
Directa Plus (AIM: DCTA), a leading producer and supplier of
graphene nanoplatelets based products for use in consumer and
industrial markets, is pleased to announce the grant of a patent by
the United States Patent and Trademark Office, relating to the
Company's technology to produce a water-based dispersion of
pristine graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs). The technology allows
Directa Plus to create an ink based on its G+ graphene product. The
grant follows the award of a US patent, announced on 27 June 2019,
for the Company's core, chemical-free graphene manufacturing
process which produces GNPs with a high level of purity (high
carbon content, extremely low oxygen content).
The G+ water-based ink is a highly concentrated dispersion of
pristine GNPs, which can be increased to a concentration of up to
50 per cent with the addition of a surfactant. The product's main
benefit is its high degree of dispersibility in any water-based
hosting formulation making the incorporation process easier. The G+
ink can be used in textiles applications to provide flame retardant
properties or electrical conductivity, as well as for coating
applications in, for example, the production of battery
electrodes.
Commenting, Giulio Cesareo, Founder and CEO of Directa Plus,
said: "This grant, following on from the recent grant of patent
protection for our core manufacturing process in the US, is another
milestone towards launching into US markets and a further
demonstration of the strength of our IP portfolio."

About Directa Plus
Our focus is principally on the two sectors in which we have
strong commercial advantage through developed and launched products
and a technological lead: environmental (based on our
Grafysorber(R) product) and textiles (based on our G+ products). In
addition, we will continue to pursue opportunities in elastomers
and composites (including tyres and asphalt), also using our G+
products. All our products are hypoallergenic, non-toxic and
sustainably produced.
