The MackGraphe team received Engineer Marcos Vinicius Gerotto, development manager at Saint-Gobain, for a technical visit. This is the second contact within 1 week since the first meeting, which was online, in which great interest was shown in the use of one of MackGraphe's patents that uses the addition of GO graphene oxide in a high molecular weight polymer, whose results were obtained by Researcher Prof. Dr. Guilhermino José Macêdo Fechine, who is a specialist in the area, researcher Marcos Daniel Vozer Felisberto and professor Camila Marchetti Maroneze were also part of the visit.
The properties of the product developed in MackGraphe, which originated the patent application, caught the attention of the Saint-Gobain engineer, because it meets a real and current demand, of extreme economic importance. The partnership in RD&I appears to be very promising and negotiations for the mutual signature of the non-disclosure agreement are already in progress. The MackGraphe team is very happy with the opportunity to partner in RD&I with a company of the size of Saint-Gobain, especially with the prospect of transferring cutting-edge technology developed at MackGraphe.
