I imagine we'll keep seeing a slow drip until news of a contract, which is supposed to be any day now...
Question for those more in the know than me:
If we assume it is true that Hydrograph's graphene is a superior product to the other graphene companies out there, but they are just lacking a team that can turn it into revenue...does that at least make it an enticing buyout target?
It seems like there are a lot of graphene companies right now, and eventually the Apple, Microsoft, etc. industry leader will emerge and make a ton of money. It also seems like HG is well-positioned to be the winner based on the technology. But if their management team can't put it together, wouldn't they be attractive to some other industry leader?
Just wondering if there is a floor that HG can fall back on, or whether this company will be worth zero if they don't get their shite together on the revenue side. A buyout obviously isn't the outcome we're looking for, but it would still be a good day.

Yes. I've done quite a bit of reading and listening about the technology and am a believer. That's not what I'm concerned about.

Presentation as of Oct 2025 noting “Close commercial sales contracts in 2025” seems pretty clear. Also online Houston production completed in 2026.
We’ll get something on this within the next 60 days is my guess.

Watching the market skyrocket while my money is tied up in HG.
We need something soon.
1. Acetylene deal?
2. Houston facility?
3. Purchase order?
We are waiting…..
If they could release confirmation on 1,2 and 3 consecutively in Oct, nov, and Dec we would be at $4 by Jan

I don't mind this, as it's giving me more time to accumulate. I was just thinking long-term. I think it was Igoringa's assessment that this company is worth a ton of money, or worth zero. And I've been OK with that risk.
But I started wondering if maybe that isn't true. That it's either worth a ton of money, or worth a modest gain (assuming it's true that the technology is unmatched, it would seem to be a good takeover target at least).

I wanted safety so I’ve purchased other graphene providers in case the bulk of the need is for mass produced graphene and the need for pristine graphene hasn’t been fully realized yet.
We all know it’s there but the industry’s still too far off to know what and how it needs it.
We know that it can be used as an adjunct in:
Glass
Steel
Ceramics
Concrete
Etc.
And maybe a cheaper mass producer will sky rocket.
Hopefully Borophene doesn’t come in and bump the importance of graphene into near obscurity.
Borophene and graphene are very different. They can be used together too.
I wanted tk diversify and may regret that if hgraf skies to 30 in two years.

They are shooting for Q1 listing on Nasdaq. Google AI says Feb. 
Any positive news is going to kick this up. A news drought afterwards will trickle it down. Hopefully we get positive, followed by more.

HydroGraph Awarded New U.S. Patent for Graphene-Based Actuator Technology
Electrothermal actuator leverages Fractal Graphene™ to deliver silent, scalable, high-force motion
HydroGraph Clean Power Inc. (CSE: HG) (OTCQB: HGRAF) (“HydroGraph” or the “Company”), a leading producer of ultra-pure graphene, today announced that it has been granted U.S. Patent No. 12,378,948 for a novel actuator technology that uses electrically conductive porous carbon materials, including HydroGraph’s proprietary Fractal Graphene™, to generate controlled mechanical force.
This marks the first U.S. patent granted for an invention developed in HydroGraph’s laboratories, part of the Company’s strategy to expand its intellectual property portfolio beyond its foundational graphene synthesis patents licensed from Kansas State University. Additionally, HydroGraph has now 11 additional patent applications pending covering various material innovations and applications.
The patented design harnesses the fractal, highly porous structure of HydroGraph’s Fractal Graphene™ to create an electrothermal actuator. By applying a small voltage, Joule heating expands the enclosed air within the material, generating motion and force. Unlike conventional actuators, HydroGraph’s device delivers rapid, silent, and scalable force generation. A unit the size of a finger can generate approximately one newton of force, with designs scalable to larger outputs.
The global actuators market was estimated at USD 66.95 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 71.22 billion in 2025 to approximately 100.41 billion by 2030, reflecting a compound annual growth rate of about 7.1 percent. This steady growth highlights the expanding demand for actuator technologies that can deliver greater efficiency, lower noise, and improved adaptability across sectors including automotive, manufacturing, robotics, and consumer appliances.
“Fractal Graphene™ is unique in that its structure is more than 95 percent air, giving it an extraordinary ability to generate force when heated electrically,” said Dr. Ranjith Divigalpitiya, HydroGraph’s Chief Science Officer and co-inventor of the patent. “In effect, it is essentially electrically conducting air. This patent demonstrates how the intrinsic properties of our material can be translated into new types of actuators. While further validation and development are required, the scientific foundation laid here opens a pathway to motion technologies that are lightweight, quiet, and adaptable across scales.”
The invention has broad claims covering porous carbon materials such as carbon black, graphite, carbon nanotubes, and graphene foams. Potential applications include:
? HVAC and building systems: replacement for wax or PTC-based hydronic valve actuators.
? Consumer appliances: silent, low-voltage actuators for dishwashers, coffee/steam machines, and other household goods.
? Automotive thermal management: compact, EMI-immune actuators for EV and ICE cooling loops.
? Microfluidics and diagnostics: lab-on-chip devices where small, fast actuators are critical.
? Aerospace and robotics: lightweight, scalable, and silent actuation in environments where motors are impractical.
“Securing this patent is an important milestone in broadening HydroGraph’s intellectual property portfolio,” said Kjirstin Breure, CEO of HydroGraph. “While our core focus remains on the commercialization of high-purity graphene, this achievement underscores the versatility of our technology platform. Intellectual property of this nature strengthens our long-term position and provides optionality as we evaluate applications where our materials can create measurable value. We look forward to working with potential partners to explore the most suitable avenues for this innovation.”
The patent positions HydroGraph to explore development of a family of actuators ranging from cost-sensitive carbon black versions to premium graphene foam designs.
About Hydrograph
HydroGraph is a leading producer of pristine graphene using an “explosion synthesis” process, which allows for exceptional purity, low energy use, and identical batches. The quality, performance, and consistency of Hydrograph’s graphene follow the Graphene Council’s Verified Graphene Producer® standards, of which very few graphene producers are able to meet.

Ditto. I am not going to be staring at my holdings a year from now. If we don't at least hear some positive news by the January-Feburary timeline, I will probably drop out.
It doesn't have to be $4/share by then, but we need to hear some news that shows they are taking positive steps towards making this happen. Either the production facility needs to be moving forward, or they need to announce customers.
I at least have to have confidence that they are legit - even if it's just setting the table for an acquisition (I'll take that over pump and dump). An acquisition would at least give us a chance to multiply our investment.

I’m not smart enough to know what that means but it feels like they’re just stacking applications for graphene. Need to get the production moving.

I don’t know what your entry point is but if your having buyers remorse just sell part of it and hold the rest. This has always been a long term hold to see if it turns into the miracle material everyone hopes it is.

Same. Have several thousand shares sitting in a ROTH account. They will sit there until something significant happens or when we retire in 30+ years.
