Black Swan Graphene Inc. (TSXV: SWAN,OTC:BSWGF) (OTCQX: BSWGF) (FSE: R960) ("Black Swan" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the issuance of Canadian Patent No. 3,113,711, titled "Apparatus and Method for Bulk Production of Atomically Thin 2-Dimensional Materials Including Graphene" (the "Patent"). The Patent solidifies Black Swan's intellectual property leadership in the field of advanced nanomaterials and scalable graphene production technologies.
With an anticipated expiration in October 2037, the Patent, safeguards a proprietary process developed by Black Swan for the efficient, high-volume production of atomically thin materials, including graphene. It addresses one of the industry's key challenges: achieving scalable, cost-effective manufacturing of 2D materials without compromising quality.
"This patent marks another important milestone in Black Swan's strategy to scale production and drive commercialization. As global demand for advanced materials accelerates, our technology provides a distinct competitive advantage by enabling industrial-scale graphene that meets both performance and cost objectives. We remained focused on volume-driven sectors, particularly polymers and concrete. I would like to thank Paul Ladislaus, Lee Glasgow, and Ronan Mchale, the inventors of the patent, for their work and contribution," said Simon Marcotte, President and CEO of Black Swan.
The patented process allows Black Swan to deliver a low-cost structure while ensuring the consistent production of high-quality graphene, paving the way for integration into large-scale commercial applications. As part of its global IP strategy, Black Swan is committed to expanding its patent portfolio to support ongoing R&D, safeguard proprietary innovations, and create opportunities for strategic partnerships and licensing with leading manufacturers worldwide.
