Graphene

𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝟮𝗗 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗹 that has the potential to revolutionize entire fields including biomedical, electronics & devices, energy generation, sensors, membranes, composites and more.

𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝘀:
💪 200 times stronger than steel
🪶 Lightweight, flexible and transparent
⚡ Extremely electrically and thermally conductive
📏 1 million times thinner than a human hair

➠ 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵
Smaller amounts of material can be used for the same strength when graphene is added to them. Graphene-enhanced composite materials can be used in aerospace applications, construction materials, mobile devices and more.

➠ 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗹
Graphene is extremely heat conductive, strong and light making it a great material for heat dissipation applications. Examples include thermal foils for mobile devices and LED microelectronics.

➠ 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆
Graphene could be used for rechargeable batteries applied to any surface - including clothing! Graphene supercapacitors could provide large amounts of power for aircraft where lightweighting is essential while using much less energy than conventional devices

➠ 𝗠𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗲𝘀
Graphene oxide membranes can be used for water filtration. In future, applications could include purifying blood for biomedical applications!
