‘the future in a trace of a pencil’graphene

NEW GRAPHENE MATERIAL IS PAPER-THIN AND TEN TIMES STRONGER THAN STEEL

Graphene can be described as a one atom thick layer of graphite.

Its is the basic structural element of other allotropes , including

graphite,carbon nanatubes, and fulluerenes.

Graphane is the strongest,thinnest material known to exist.

‘Graphene’ was first isolated in the lab by,

Andre Geim Konstantin Nuselov (University of Manchester-England in 2004)

The Amazing Properties of graphene

It is thinnest material imaginable( 0.345 nm thick.) It is the strongest material measured. 200x stronger than steel (1,100TPa/125 GPa) Stiffer than diamond It is electrically conductive-best known so far. 1,000,000x more conductive than copper(current

density @room temp.)

Electrons behave as light inside grapheneIt conducts heat even better than

diamond(500 W m-1K-1)It is flexible :The first elastic 2D crystal.Good for flexible,wearable devices.It is transparent: One atom-thick layer sheet absorbs 2.3% visible light

• Replacement for Solar cells,touch screens,new computers,batteries,etc

The Uses Of Graphene

• A RACQUET MADE WITH THE WORLD'S STRONGEST MATERIAL

• HEAD'S YOUTEK GRAPHENE SPEED PRO IS ONE OF THE FIRST RACQUETS TO DELIVER BOTH CRUSHING POWER AND PRECISE CONTROL.

TATTOOING TEETH WITH GRAPHENE COULD WARN OF BACTERIA AND DENTAL DECAY
