3. What is the graphene?
Graphene is a material composed of pure carbon, it no is more expensive.
4. Applications
o It can be used to do many things, for example:
§ To manufacture a new powerful mobile
§ He can be used everyday life
§ Antibacterial applications
§ Gas detector
5. ain properties and applications:
• Perfect conductor: The graphene is
a perfect conductor. Experimental
results from transport measurements
show that graphene has a remarkably
high electron mobility at room
temperature.
• Can be used as solar panels: The
graphene is not only able to conduct
energy, it can be used to collect solar
energy too.
• Is so strong: Graphene appears to
be one of the strongest materials ever
tested. Measurements have shown
that graphene has a breaking
strength over 100 times greater than
the steel.
• It have a thermal properties: The
near-room temperature gives thermal
conductivity to the graphene.
6. History of graphene:
The increased scientific interest in graphene can give the impression that it is a new
material.
Really is known and has been described for more than half a century.The scientists gave
little attention during decades because they thought it was unstable.The word graphene
was officially adopted in 1994.
Actually, the graphite structure can be considered a large number of battery plates.
Occurrence and production:
Some companies are investigating on it to produce it and sell to the public.
