With PowderGraph XL
Revolutionizing Concrete Manufacturing
PowderGraph XL is a groundbreaking material developed by American Graphene, marking a significant advancement in the field of construction materials. It is a high-purity, single-layer graphene powder, meticulously engineered to be integrated into concrete. The unique aspect of PowderGraph XL lies in its atomic structure – a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice. This structure endows PowderGraph XL with remarkable properties, making it an ideal additive for enhancing the strength and durability of concrete.

Strength Matters
Critical Infrastructure
A high-purity, single-layer graphene powder, PowderGraph XL is engineered to seamlessly integrate into existing concrete manufacturing processes, transforming standard concrete into Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC).
How It All Started:
The Genesis of PowderGraph XL for Ultra-High Performance Concrete
The inception of PowderGraph XL by American Graphene was driven by a crucial need to address the aging and vulnerable infrastructure in our communities, a need starkly highlighted by the heart-wrenching Surfside Miami condo collapse on June 24, 2021. This tragedy, occurring near our home base in Florida, underscored the fragility of aging buildings and the urgent demand for stronger, more durable construction materials.
In the wake of this disaster, it became evident that conventional building materials were insufficient in meeting the growing challenges of structural integrity and environmental resilience. At American Graphene, we recognized our unique position to make a difference. Our expertise in advanced material science and commitment to our community led us to develop PowderGraph XL, a pioneering solution crafted to revolutionize the concrete manufacturing industry.
It doesn't stop there. The urgency to revitalize our infrastructure extends beyond buildings to the numerous aging seawalls, bridges, docks, and piers that line Florida's extensive coastline and other coastal communities. These structures, constantly battered by harsh marine environments and severe weather conditions, are showing alarming signs of wear and damage. The deterioration of these critical infrastructures poses not only safety risks but also threatens the economic and environmental stability of these areas.
Incorporation of PowderGraphXL leads to concrete with markedly increased strength and durability, addressing the critical issue of structural weaknesses in aging infrastructures.
