GPHBF - G6 Materials Announces Granting of Two US Patents

(TheNewswire)

The Company’s IP Portfolio NowIncludes 5 Granted Patents and 5 Patent Applications Filed

Ronkonkoma, New York, USA - TheNewswire – May 13, 2021 - G6Materials Corp. (“G6” or the “Company”)(TSXV:GGG ) ( OTC:GPHBF) , a technology company creating value through the developmentof innovative graphene-based solutions , ispleased to announce that the Company has recently received a Notice ofAllowance (“NOA”) from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office(“USPTO”) for two of its previously filed patent applications,which graduates both to having granted patent status. The first of thetwo granted patents is related to graphene enrichment, while thesecond is regarding a water-soluble 3D printing material. G6 has alsofiled a non-provisional utility patent application regarding anantiviral graphene oxide air filtration device. Subsequent to thereceipt of the NOAs and the filing of the utility patent application,the Company’s intellectual property (“IP”) portfolio currentlyincludes five granted patents and five filed patentapplications.

“The allowance by the USPTO of the Two GrantedPatents enhances our IP portfolio and comes at an exciting time forour Company as we recently completed a transformational financing andcontinue working toward closing the GX Technologies acquisition,”said Daniel Stolyarov, President & CEO of G6 Materials Corp. “G6is a unique company with ongoing commercial operations to go alongwith a strong research and development team. I would like to commendour employees and external service providers for their hard work anddedication with respect to developing innovations such as the twogranted patents and advancing their status with the USPTO, therebyincreasing their value and bringing them closer tocommercialization,” added Mr. Stolyarov.

A summary of the two granted patents is provided below:

Graphene Enrichment – Entitled “ MethodFor Preparation And Separation Of Atomic Layer Thickness PlateletsFrom Graphite Or Other Layered Materials ”,this patent describes a method that allows the separation of graphenenanoplatelets into fractions based on their thickness. The quality andprice for graphene nanoplatelets are determined by their thickness andlateral size. Some of the methods of making graphene nanoplateletsproduce platelets with a broad distribution of thickness and lateralsize. The method described in the Company’s invention allows for theenrichment of graphene material by separating platelets based on theirsize and thickness. This method can also be used in conjunction withlow-cost and low-efficacy methods of splitting graphite into plateletsto produce high quality graphene material.

Water-Soluble Thermoplastic Polymers– Entitled “ ThermoplasticComposites Comprising Water-Soluble PEO Graft Polymers Useful For3-Dimensional Additive Manufacturing ”, thispatent describes the formulation of a water-soluble 3D printingmaterial for the fused deposition modeling (“FDM”) method of 3Dprinting. Water-soluble FDM material is routinely used as asacrificial material in 3D printing. There is a well-known issue withFDM 3D printing – it has the problem of fabricating free-hanging,overhang and helical geometries. The most common method to overcome this issue is to use two materialssimultaneously – structural and soluble – with the solublematerial being removed at the last step. Usually, PolyVinyl Alcohol(“PVA”) is used as the soluble material, however, PVA does notcompletely dissolve in water. At best, it becomes gooey and is stilldifficult to remove. This is a serious limitation for fabricatingsmall channels, for example. The Company believes its formulation issuperior as it completely dissolves in water within minutes, therebycreating a non-viscous solution, which is expected to result in one ofthe best commercial materials of its kind on the market.

Additionally, the Company has filed a non-provisionalutility patent application entitled “ Antiviral Graphene Oxide Air FiltrationDevice And Associated Methods ”. G6’sinvention is a method to utilize the scientifically-provenantimicrobial properties of graphene oxide for air filtrationapplications. As previously announced, the Company is working with amanufacturing partner in China to develop a portable air purifierusing this technology, which would allow for the efficient removal ofbacteria and viruses from the air. This product is currentlyundergoing testing by an independent laboratory in the United States,which needs to be completed in order to obtain proper accreditationfrom the government.

Update on GX Technologies Acquisition

The Company’s previously announced acquisition of GXTechnologies, Inc. remains on track to be completed in the near term.The closing period has been mutually extended by both parties as moretime is needed to complete the due diligence process and prepare thetransaction’s closing documents.  The completion of the acquisitionwill be subject of the receipt of final approval of the TSX VentureExchange.
