Tata Steel has formed a strategic partnership with a prominent UK research body, The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), to develop a range of innovations, among them graphene-coated steels and next-generation sensors that can operate in extreme environments. The research partnership with EPSRC will give Tata Steel access to a wider network of world-class experts, enhancing its research and development activities. The partners will work together on long-term research, postgraduate training and knowledge exchange in a number of different pre-defined areas.
The research will include studying the viability of coating steel strip with graphene, a one atom thick carbon layer whose properties include anti-corrosion and a high degree of electrical conductivity. Graphene-coated steels could boost the energy efficiency of solar panels, or make buildings longer-lasting by reducing damage caused by water or even the most corrosive of chemicals.
Tata Steel, the flagship company of the Tata group is the first integrated steel plant in Asia and is now the world’s second most geographically diversified steel producer and a Fortune 500 Company.
