    “Lack of standards, and a lack of understanding in terms of what a material is and what a material isn’t,” is what James Baker, CEO of Graphene@Manchester, and many others believe is holding back companies working to industrialize graphene-based products. To help companies around this barrier to commercialization, the National Physical Laboratory in Teddington and the National Graphene Institute in Manchester, UK, have launched a service to provide characterization. We spoke to experts from industry and academia at the launch to hear their thoughts on what impact the service will have.
