Graphene, a 2D carbon material, has existed in the imagination of Scientists for years and been studied since 1947, but it was not until 2004 that it was first produced from graphite.
The fuller presentation was given in Washington October 2015 (with several image replacements). This extract covers the latest technology developments, applications, commercialization progress, end user requirements and challenges for Graphene. It is free so as to attract and help other collaborators.

NOTES: Serious game-changer - hence Nobel Prizes and Knighthoods for Andre and Kostya {Professors: Sir Andre Geim and Sir Konstantin Novoselov - Manchester University – UK} ISSUES: lack of collaboration due to competition.
NOTES: Doxorubicin (Dox) is physically bound to the graphene due to similarities in their molecular structures. The anticancer protein, TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is bound to the surface of the graphene by a chain of amino acids called peptides. ‘These drug-rich graphene strips are introduced into the bloodstream in a solution, and then travel through the bloodstream like nanoscale flying carpets,’ Dr. Zhen Gu {Newman: Digital Medicine}
NOTES: Realisation today. Instructions in front of us (and inside). Consider human skin - cutaneous membrane; multi-layered system preventing infection and colonization from potential and real disease causing agents. Internal examples include; Fermoral, Myelin, Pericardium, Rectus, etc. Programmable to enhance abilities - oxygenation efficiency (underlying cause of cancer = any cell denied 60% of oxygen requirements )
NOTES: Notwithstanding the obvious military applications for individual soldier defence applications. Optical engineering team - Bar-Ilan University; (a) Schematic of constructed prototypes. (b) Schematic of spectacles with installed imaging camera. (c) Schematic contact lens with stimulation electrodes. Further advanced realisation – Bruckhoff Hannover.
NOTES: Given its elasticity index is similar to rubber and its tensile strength is a hundred times that of steel, even sturdier than diamonds; creation of intelligent and integrated bio-sensing flexi-metals with/out bio-adhesive properties, using graphene, will reduce the burden of muscular dystrophies. Tip: Think Poly-ether-ether-ketone (PEEK), an organic thermoplastic polymer material. Already employed in medical implants due to compatibility with human tissues. Note: Bio-adhesive properties due to graphene’s scaffolding cell culturing assets – strong potential to change everything about prosthesis - Image credit: Shutterstock/Lightspring
Tyres, Panels, Glass, Rivets … every component (including coatings). NOTES: Aerospace, ground and sea transportation. State of the art injection moulding facilities at our disposal provides significant opportunities.
NOTES: Transportation – all elements – remain priority > Environmental impact – improved reduction > Special membranes – toxicity prevention >New materials enable drones to transport patients and transplants.
