Graphene smart textiles developed for heat adaptive clothing
New research on the two-dimensional (2D) material graphene has allowed researchers to create smart adaptive clothing which can lower the body temperature of the wearer in hot climates. A team of scientists…
Graphene light sail could speed journey to other star systems
A tiny sail made of the thinnest material graphene has passed initial tests designed to show that it could be a viable material to make solar sails for spacecraft. Light sails are…
MIT researchers map tiny twists in “magic-angle” graphene
Made of a single layer of carbon atoms linked in a hexagonal honeycomb pattern, graphene’s structure is simple and seemingly delicate. Since its discovery in 2004, scientists have found that graphene is…
Physicists produce stable water-based graphene dispersions
Sweden researchers have found a surprisingly simple way to disperse the Graphene in water. Graphene, graphite, activated carbons are quite different forms of carbon but what is common for them is their…
