The wizard of Smoltek
Smoltek’s recent breakÂthrough in growÂing carÂbon nanofibers (CNF) on an A4-sized area has caught the attenÂtion of researchers and indusÂtry experts alike. And rightÂly so! This achieveÂment showÂcasÂes Smoltek’s unique capaÂbilÂiÂties and valuÂable intelÂlecÂtuÂal capÂiÂtal that must be proÂtectÂed. While patents are cruÂcial for safeÂguardÂing this, fosÂterÂing a comÂpaÂny culÂture that empowÂers our employÂees is equalÂly imporÂtant. Let’s dive deeper.

Why Smoltek doubles down on qualified research
Smoltek’s focus on qualÂiÂfied research places it firmÂly in the ExplorÂer quadÂrant of the R&D EvalÂuÂaÂtion Matrix, a modÂel for assessÂing a company’s research and develÂopÂment stratÂeÂgy. DisÂcovÂer why this matÂters to investors and how Smoltek transÂlates groundÂbreakÂing research into valuÂable busiÂness opportunities.

The different meanings of R&D
In a world where nearÂly every comÂpaÂny claims to be innoÂvÂaÂtive, it can be chalÂlengÂing for investors to disÂtinÂguish between increÂmenÂtal improveÂments and groundÂbreakÂing disÂcovÂerÂies. This artiÂcle introÂduces the R&D EvalÂuÂaÂtion Matrix, a simÂple 2×2 modÂel that helps clarÂiÂfy a company’s true innoÂvaÂtion stratÂeÂgy, offerÂing valuÂable insights into its potenÂtial for future growth and success.

Smoltek Hydrogen achieves milestone with A4-sized CNF-growth
Smoltek HydroÂgen has made a sigÂnifÂiÂcant techÂnoÂlogÂiÂcal breakÂthrough. The R&D team has sucÂcessÂfulÂly grown carÂbon nanofibers (CNFs) over an A4-sized area, markÂing the first time such a large CNF-covÂered mateÂrÂiÂal samÂple has been fabÂriÂcatÂed. This breakÂthrough is a cruÂcial step towards indusÂtriÂal scalÂaÂbilÂiÂty of carÂbon nanofiber coatÂing, which is a key step in develÂopÂing the porous transÂport elecÂtrode for PEM elecÂtrolyzÂers and simÂiÂlar soluÂtions for fuel cells being develÂoped by Smoltek Hydrogen.

Circularity – using hydrogen in the carbon nanofiber production process
DurÂing the spring, we have had John Schack, a master’s theÂsis stuÂdent, with us at Smoltek HydroÂgen who has been workÂing on the synÂtheÂsis of carÂbon nanofibers (CNF) – where we have adjustÂed the growth recipe to use hydroÂgen as input instead of ammonia.

Smoltek Hydrogen has achieved A4 size plasma
Towards scalÂaÂbilÂiÂty of indusÂtriÂal carÂbon nanofiber growth: The develÂopÂment of the indusÂtriÂal manÂuÂfacÂturÂing conÂcept for Smoltek Hydrogen’s ElecÂtrolyzÂer Cell MateÂrÂiÂal is at its final stages, with aim on being finalÂized durÂing 2024. As a stepÂping stone, the capaÂbilÂiÂty in the company’s existÂing PlasÂma Enhanced ChemÂiÂcal Vapor DepoÂsiÂtion (PECVD) tool has been extendÂed and A4 size plasÂma has been achieved. This is a cruÂcial step towards indusÂtriÂal scalÂaÂbilÂiÂty of carÂbon nanofiber growth.

We have the technology to make production of green hydrogen profitable
Smoltek HydroÂgen has develÂoped a new mateÂrÂiÂal that solves the major techÂniÂcal chalÂlenge that threatÂens to halt the fast-growÂing indusÂtry for green hydroÂgen proÂduced by interÂmitÂtent enerÂgy sources, such as solar and wind powÂer. With the groundÂbreakÂing nanoÂmaÂteÂrÂiÂal, the use of iridÂiÂum (catÂaÂlysts) in PEM elecÂtrolyzÂers can be reduced to levÂels that make large-scale hydroÂgen proÂducÂtion profitable.

Smoltek Hydrogen has finalized design of a Prototype Coater tool for carbon nanofibers
Smoltek HydroÂgen and AGC PlasÂma TechÂnolÂoÂgy SoluÂtions have finalÂized the design of a ProÂtoÂtype Coater for indusÂtriÂal growth of carÂbon nanofibers. The purÂpose with the tool is to verÂiÂfy that the nanofibers can be grown using a PlasÂma Enhanced ChemÂiÂcal Vapor DepoÂsiÂtion (PECVD) techÂnolÂoÂgy from AGC. The techÂnolÂoÂgy is scalÂable and can be extendÂed to be used for subÂstrates of sevÂerÂal square meters, for future mass production.

World-leading vehicle manufacturer is testing custom-made cell material
One of the world’s largest vehiÂcle manÂuÂfacÂturÂers is testÂing cusÂtom-made proÂtoÂtypes of a cell mateÂrÂiÂal that can sigÂnifÂiÂcantÂly reduce the amount of iridÂiÂum in an elecÂtrolyzÂer cell. The cusÂtom-made proÂtoÂtypes delivÂered by the subÂsidiary Smoltek HydroÂgen have the potenÂtial to reduce the iridÂiÂum load in elecÂtrolyzÂer cells by 95% comÂpared to today’s comÂmerÂcial mateÂriÂals, which is a preÂreqÂuiÂsite for large-scale proÂducÂtion of fosÂsil-free hydrogen.
