We're happy to announce a new, free service on the Graphene Catalog: an MCP server that lets AI assistants connect directly to our graphene materials database.
MCP (the Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that lets AI tools talk to external data sources. With our new endpoint, you can point Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP-compatible assistant at the Graphene Catalog and have it search our catalog and read full material specifications on your behalf — pulling live data straight from our database rather than whatever the model happened to memorize.
So instead of browsing the site yourself, you can ask things like "Find graphene inks for inkjet printing" or "Compare the surface area and carbon content of these graphene flakes" — answered from the real, current catalog. It covers all our material types: graphene oxide, flakes, sheets (CVD films), inks, and 3D-printing filaments, with elemental composition, size, dispersibility, and type-specific properties.
Endpoint: https://catalog.graphene-info.com/mcp
How to connect:
- Claude (web/desktop): Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste the URL.
- Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http graphene-catalog https://catalog.graphene-info.com/mcp
- ChatGPT: add as a custom connector (standard search/fetch tools).
The service is free, public, and read-only — it exposes the same public specifications and images you already see on the site, and nothing more.
