Graphene has the potential to spur advances in a variety of sectors, from transport to medicine to electronics. Unfortunately, the high cost of graphene production has slowed commercialization.

Using internal research funding, chemical engineers at Southwest Research Institute developed a multi-step process to produce graphene, a valuable carbon allotrope, from CO 2. The graphene, which is ...

Graphene is an extremely thin, flexible and resistant material made of pure carbon. It forms layers that consist of virtually a single layer of carbon atoms. To make graphene as thick as a human hair, ...

Research on graphene has made great strides in recent years. However, to fully harness its potential in applications such as ...

A milestone in graphene research: Chemists have succeeded in controlling the passage of halide ions by deliberately introducing defects into a two-layer nanographene system. Their paper shows new ...

As well as the use of microorganisms, also key to the technology is graphene (a single later of atoms that is very strong, flexible and which boasts excellent conductive properties). The manipulation ...

According to new research from Rice University, while Edison’s goal was simply to create a longer-lasting electric lamp, the extreme conditions created inside Edison’s carbon filament bulbs in those ...
