Avadain Graphene with CEO Brad Larschan

Avadain: Unlocking the True Power of Graphene
Avadain is a Tennessee-based advanced materials company producing large, thin, defect-free (LTDF) graphene flakes using a patented, eco-friendly electrochemical exfoliation process. While most of the 400+ “graphene” companies offer nanoplatelets or graphite derivatives, Avadain delivers some of the highest quality graphene possible with its full suite of properties—200x stronger than steel, ultra-lightweight, and exceptionally conductive.

What Sets Avadain Apart

• LTDF Advantage: Flakes superpass 25µm² and are typically less than 2-5 atomic layers thick, with minimal defects—essential for unlocking graphene’s full performance in electronics, composites, coatings, energy storage and much more across virtually all materials industries.

• Eco-Friendly Tech: Unlike oxidation-based methods, Avadain’s hydrogenation process preserves structural integrity and conductivity without harsh chemicals.

• Industrial Gap: High-quality graphene has been a missing link in scaling advanced tech. Avadain’s licensing model brings LTDF graphene to market via manufacturing partners across aerospace, defense, electronics, and clean tech.

No Real Competitors
Most players focus on low-cost, low-quality material. Avadain’s flakes deliver transformative gains—like boosting supercapacitor performance with just 0.5% additive or enabling ultra-light aviation composites. Their capital-light model gives them a strategic edge as industries shift to graphene-enhanced materials.
