Focus Graphite Inc. (TSX VENTURE:FMS)(OTCQX:FCSMF)(FRANKFURT:FKC) on behalf of
Grafoid Inc., announced today Grafoid's joint venture development agreement with
Coquitlam, British Columbia-based CapTherm Systems Inc. to develop and
commercialize next generation, multiphase thermal management systems for
electric vehicle (EV) battery and light emitting diode (LED) technologies.
CapTherm Systems Inc - Progressive Thermal Management is a thermal
management/cooling company specializing in personal computer, server, LED, and
electric vehicle cooling systems. It develops and commercializes proprietary,
next-generation high-power electronics cooling technologies.
Its multiphase cooling technologies represent the core of its products that
harness the power of latent heat from vaporization.
Under the terms of the agreement, Grafoid Inc., a company invested in the
production of high-energy graphene and the development of graphene industrial
applications will supply both materials and its science for adapting graphene to
CapTherm's existing EV and LED cooling systems.
"This alliance represents a milestone for both companies in their pursuit of
cutting edge, energy-saving, green technology graphene applications," said
George Economo, Grafoid's business development manager.
"Integrating graphene's superior thermal conductivity to CapTherm's existing EV
and LED cooling applications goes to the core of Grafoid's IP development
strengths," he said.
CapTherm Systems CEO & Technical Director Timo Minx said next generation cooling
technologies require next generation materials.
"Graphene and its properties as a superconductor will enable CapTherm to
position itself well for future thermal challenges," Mr. Minx said.
"Making our products even more competitive by taking advantage of graphene's
lateral and vertical heat spreading capabilities is a logical step in advancing
our science to meet those future challenges," Mr. Minx added.
He said graphene is a novel 21st century material that has the potential to
revolutionize a multitude of markets.
About Grafoid Inc.
Grafoid, Inc., is a privately owned graphene investment and graphene business
development company establishing international standards for the production of
economically scalable graphene.
Focus Graphite Inc. holds a major interest in Grafoid on behalf of its shareholders.
About CapTherm Systems Inc.
CapTherm specializes in the development and commercialization of proprietary
next-generation high-power electronics cooling technologies. Solid state
multiphase technology represents the core of CapTherm's products and harnesses
the raw power of latent heat of vaporization. The CT Fusion line of products is
the only commercially available electronics cooling product in the market that
takes advantage of a phase change (from liquid to vapor) in combination with a
thermal pump to create a pumped cooling loop with no moving parts requiring no
additional electric power offering increased reliability and performance over
contemporary cooling systems. Our technology enables the creation of a broad
range of industry applications that require smaller but higher performance,
higher reliability and more energy efficient products - all at a lower cost.
