KUALA LUMPUR, May 18 (Bernama) -- NanoMalaysia Berhad participated in and showcased two inventions leading to a gold medal and most innovative product award at the 34th International Invention, Innovation and Technology Exhibition (ITEX) 2023 held at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre recently.
The gold medal in the Automotive, Aerospace, Aviation and Transportation Category was awarded for the new type of pre-cured tread liner rubber compound called Graphene Pre-Cured Tread Liner, which incorporates a small amount of graphene M-15. This product has been developed in collaboration with GIIB Rubber Compound Sdn Bhd under the Invention & Design Competition category. Graphene Pre-Cured Tread Liner is the first graphene-infused pre-cured tread liner in Malaysia. This product has many applications in countries with diverse climates and extreme road conditions, such as Europe and Saudi Arabia, and offers extended tire lifetime and cost savings. Recycled carbon black has also been used in the formulation, reducing the carbon footprint and supporting green technology.
The second invention which won the Malaysia Innovative Product Award is a graphene-based nanofluid called AQUENE, which enhances heat transfer at all heat exchange interfaces and rapidly rejects heat from conditioned spaces. This product has been developed in collaboration with Blue Snow Consulting and Engineering Sdn Bhd under the Malaysia Innovative Product Award (MIPA) category. The nanofluid saves 20-30% of energy and is environmentally friendly. It is ideal for various closed-loop cooling and heating applications and reduces the runtime of compressors, resulting in significant energy savings.
