Eco Graphene
WHAT IS GRAPHENE?
We often call Graphene the “material of the future” because it has various remarkable properties and applications.
Graphene is called a nanotube, as it is similar to carbon nanotubes.
Graphenes are rolled-out nanotubes with similar extraordinary
properties but distinct features and use cases as they are
transparent.
PROPERTIES/APPLICATIONS OF GRAPHENE
01
EXCELLENT CONDUCTIVITY
Graphene is an excellent electrical conductor. It can conduct electricity with extremely low resistance, making it ideal for
electronics, electrical engineering and power transmission applications.
02
HIGH THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY
Graphene has exceptionally high thermal conductivity, making it valuable for heat dissipation in high-performance electronics and
other thermal applications.
03
MECHANICAL STRENGTH
Despite its extremely thin structure, Graphene is extraordinarily strong and flexible at the same time. It can withstand mechanical
stresses and is therefore relevant for materials science, composite manufacturing and even medicine applications.
04
TRANSPARENCY
Graphene is transparent and can still absorb light very efficiently. Such properties make it a promising candidate for applications in
optoelectronic devices such as transparent displays, sensors and photovoltaic cells.
05
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
Graphene is chemically inert, and we can use it in aggressive environments without corrosion or degradation.
06
LARGE SURFACE
Due to its 2D structure, Graphene offers a large surface area relative to its volume. This enables a wide range of applications in the field
of catalysis, where materials react on the surface.
07
VERSATILITY IN ELECTRONICS
Graphene could replace or complement traditional silicon chips in electronics. It enables miniaturization of components and has the
potential to allow faster and more efficient electronic devices.
08
ENERGY
Graphene-based materials could improve the energy efficiency and capacity of batteries and supercapacitors, leading to longer battery
life and faster charging times.
09
WATER AND AIR PURIFICATION
Graphene can serve as an adsorbent for pollutants in water and air, leading to environmentally friendly purification technologies.
10
HEALTHCARE
Graphene can potentially be used in medicine to develop biosensors, medical imaging technologies, drug delivery systems, and tissue
regeneration.
GRAPHENE PRODUCTION
Current production methods of Graphene are very complex and therefore
cost-intensive. The material is either produced by graphite’s chemical vapour disposition or artificially grown.
The big challenge is to achieve consistent purity and quality, which is difficult to do with natural graphite.
As with CNTs, we generated Graphene by catalytic cracking, which can be considered revolutionary in this field.
Quality, purity, and effectiveness challenges have also been successfully overcome, which now makes broad application possible.
GRAPHENE IS ONE OF THE THINNEST AND STRONGEST MATERIALS IN THE WORLD, YET IT IS FLEXIBLE.
THE MATERIALS OF THE FUTURE
NEARLY EVERY INDUSTRY WORLDWIDE CAN AND WILL BENEFIT FROM CNTS & GRAPHENE.
