Juan Ángel Ruiz Moya was born on January 7, 1986 in Mula, a municipality in the Region of Murcia, in Spain. After finishing his ESO and Baccalaureate studies, he decided to study building engineering at the Catholic University of San Antonio (UCAM). At the end of the four years of university studies, as a final project, he decided to investigate the use of graphene as an additive in cementitious materials, that is, the development of a new next-generation nano-technology in cements. Its main objective was to improve mechanical properties, durability and reduce CO2 pollution into the atmosphere. Currently, he is a businessman who works in the province of Murcia holding 5 positions in 3 companies and has received a total of 14 appointments. He is the administrator of some of his companies such as: Smart Project Engineers, Graphenano
What does the patent consist of?
Graphenano Smart Materials is a Spanish company based in Yecla (Murcia), and is one of the companies promoting the project. The patent, which took 6 years to develop and with an investment of more than 10 million euros, in the context of the project, aims to provide a new graphene-reinforced cement composite material. This is achieved through an additive that incorporates this nanomaterial, which reinforces the cement compound, improving its mechanical, conductivity and durability properties. Graphenano Smart Materials is a world pioneer in the manufacture of additives with graphene technology, thus, it is the only company in the world that can offer industrial solutions at competitive market prices, and that can sustain the global supply given the demand. The company has recently launched GrapheConcrete on the market: a line of new-generation concrete with graphene that is more resistant and sustainable, in addition to improving the quality of the products by being, among other things, more resistant and flexible.
