Golf is about consistency. Consistency in the golf swing to move your golf club into the optimal position at impact is imperative. Our goal in making golf shafts here at AccuFLEX has always been to produce the finest, most consistent shafts ever available to golfers. Our motto "A Golf Shaft to Fit Every Swing" is evidence of our further commitment to making a great golf shaft for everyone that plays the game. We at AccuFLEX Golf have achieved our goals, to date, by utilizing the most advanced filament winding process ever developed and by using a higher density graphite than our competitors, category per category. These technological achievements have resulted in the development of our proprietary "A2" material. AccuFLEX shafts that incorporate "A2" in combination with our advanced filament winding process have been proven to be extremely lively, yet consistent for players of all levels. PGA, Champions, Nationwide Tour players and professional Long Drivers have all marveled at how long, accurate, playable and consistent AccuFLEX shafts are. We are just as proud to have earned the praise of average golfers everywhere.

When we learned about the Nanotech method of treating graphite and the greater consistency it brings to the raw material, we knew that this was the next technological advancement we needed to bring to our customers. The AccuFLEX EVOLUTION shaft, the first shaft ever introduced featuring AccuFLEXs Nano Composite technology, is already in the bags of several top Nationwide Tour players. Why? The words we are hearing are Т“longer, straighter, more consistent. These words are music to our ears and we are very excited to bring this technology to the golf market. Is the EVOLUTION going to be the right shaft for everybody? Of course not. But what we at AccuFLEX Golf are committing to with our new EVOLUTION shaft is the understanding that there is now an even better way to produce more consistency in the raw graphite materials we use to make a golf shaft. AccuFLEX Golf will continue to lead the way and bring the best shaft technology available to our customers. AccuFLEX GolfФ’s Nano Composite technology and the nanotech methods of treating other materials is here to stay. After 12 months of research and development, AccuFLEX Golf is proud to have taken the first step in bringing its Nano Composite technology to golf equipment but the company recognizes that it is just that: a first step. AccuFLEX Golf plans to offer a full range of Nano Composite products in the future to fulfill its motto, "A Golf Shaft to Fit Every Swing".

Long description

We deals with variety of water soluble biocompatible metallic nanomaterials such as nanoparticles, nanorods, nanotriangles, nanohexagons, nanocrystals, etc.
The naomaterials and nanoconstructs are available for gold, silver, palladium, platinum and iron in aqueous base.
These nanomaterials have wide spectrum utility for nanoscience and nanotechnology researchers in academia and industry.
The major applications can be exploited in disease diagnosis, therapeutic effectiveness, Novel drug delivery formulations and also in areas other than biomedical field.
Biocompatibly coated gold and silver nanoparticles allow systematic variations in metal content, thus providing unprecedented means of developing mono or multi nanolayers with assorted metal content for variety of materials and biomedical research applications.
Aggregation of gold and silver nanoparticles in ionic media is a common phenomenon, thereby impeding researchers from carrying out important experiments in ionic fluids.
The technology allows retention of nanoparticulate properties of gold and silver even in the presence of high concentrations of ions. The new dispersible solution phase nanoconstructs allow customers to directly utilize gold and silver nanoparticles in solution phase for such research and product development applications that involve spraying, spin coating, emulsification, mixing, and implanting processes.
Gold nanoconstructs allows researchers to use “one-step” direct labeling of biocompatible gold nanoparticles with target specific proteins/peptides and various markers.
Silver nanomaterials has potential anitmicrobial, anti-fungal, anti-viral, germicidal, etc. applications in health, hygeine, packaging and environmental restoration domains.
Palladium and platinum nanoparticles are unique resources for catalytic testing and manufacture of specialty fine chemicals and pharmaceutical intermediates.

• Give a comprehensive picture of nanotechnology at Italian level in relation to activity, perspectives and needs, in comparison to what happens in other countries;
• Present the latest developments and trends in terms of R&D, applications and governance at world level;
• Offer the opportunity for a debate amongst representatives of industry, public research and governmental bodies;
• Stimulate initiatives of cooperation, coordination and support aimed to promote and make more effective the efforts in this field.

• Energy efficiency;
• Sustainable mobility;
• New technologies for life sciences;
• New technologies for Made in Italy;
• Innovative technologies to preserve the cultural heritage.

A session will be specifically devoted to the responsible development of nanotechnology, crucial for the success of this technology.
