Not notable. Doesn't meet WP:GNG. No significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Only 2 exact-word search results on Google Scholar, both of which are publications written by someone whose last name is very similar to the article creator's username (Markoulakis / Markoulw). See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Quantum field of magnet for context. — Newslinger talk 17:08, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete WP:TOOSOON at absolute best. (There are a few more GS results for "Ferrocell", but a sizable fraction of those are false positives.) XOR'easter (talk) 17:52, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete. As an alternative, the article could be renamed to Ferocell which does have greater technical and popular coverage. Looking closely though, this is something quite niche that has been highly promoted by its creators, promotion which includes this article. Without wishing to out anyone, it seems quite likely that the article is further promotional material generated by the inventors. Another possibility would be a merge (as a short mention) into ferrofluid which is the basis behind this invention. Lithopsian (talk) 19:27, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as WP:Too soon. Has not yet achieved notability, with little notice in science data bases. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:41, 2 August 2018 (UTC).[reply]
