So Easy
When You Know How
Graphene is nothing short of a magical material in terms of it's physical and electrical characteristics.
It is the strongest material known – it is the best electrical conductor known etc. etc. It promises to totally change electronics design and manufacture, and the same for many other technologies.
Graphene was invented / discovered using ordinary sticky tape to separate out the layers of graphene in a piece of graphite – the same stuff in the middle of your pencil.
But there were difficulties in making it. Huge technical problems existed in trying to produce industrial quantities of Graphene – that is until NOW.
Graphene Recipe
Take some fine graphite powder, add some Fairy Liquid, and I presume some water, and stick it in your kitchen blender. Blend for one hour – and hope the blender doesn't burn out. You will have some graphene in your blender – WOW.
Sounds too easy to be true. It is true go and check the news items. The clever people who came on the method say it is fairly simple to scale it up to industrial size and produce large quantities of the magic material at very low cost.
Roll on the graphene revolution.
