Why GRAPHENE is a WONDER MATERIAL ? Real life VIBRANIUM

These 7 Things make GRAPHENE

 A WONDER MATERIAL


1. Strength


Graphene is the Third most strongest material after Carbyne and Borophene.
Young's Modulus of Graphene is around 1,50,00,000 kg/cm² ( which means It will lose its elasticity or change its shape after applying 1.5×10⁷ kg Force in per cm Volume)


Just for comparison,
Steel's Young's modulus: 215 GPA
Diamond's Young's modulus: 1220 GPA
Graphene's Young's modulus: approximately 1.5TPA


2.  Electrical conductivity 

Graphene can flow electricity 1000 times faster than Cooper wire and If Computer chips are made by Graphene It would be 100 times faster than Silicon chips. 
Graphene can comvert Photons into Electrons
It might be possible to use it to make batteries that have ten times as much electrical retention capacity than anything else. It also supports Fasr charging and with higher life span

3. Thinnest material

Graphene is the one of the most Thinest Material in the world.

For example: If you make a sheet of Graphene of around 1m² area with 1mm thickness you can put a cat of weight 5kg on it and the weight of sheet will be equal to 1 hair of cat (0.77mg)



4. Rustless World

Because graphene is virtually impermeable, a coat of Graphene could eradicate corrosion and rust. Researchers have even shown that glassware or copper plates covered with graphene paint can be used as containers for strongly corrosive acids.

5. Water Purification

Graphene can purify any type of water. It can purify Sea water and can solve water crisis in the world. For converting sea water, A thin Graphene membrane should be made to purify sea water
In 2018 Australian Scientists converted sea water in normal water using a special form of graphene 'GRAPHAIR'

6. Cost

The cost of Graphene is very high around 1,000$ per gram, But no worries. A team in Indian Scientists has found an alternative for this. The team has created reduced grahene oxide [rGO], a modified version of graphene in lab. The rGO is Hundred times less costly than Graphene. It costs around 10$ per gram graphene

7. Transparency 

Along with this Graphene is also an Transparent material

8. Vechiles


Four most important things for a vehicle are Environmental Friendly, Affordability, Fast Charging amd Efficient. Indian Scientists have developed a Hybrid Supercapicitors with unique electrode Material. Graphene can power all these Capacitors.

9. Expansion and Contraction

The most unique thing that researchers observe about graphene is, The Graphene expands when it is cooled amd it shrinks when it is heated. While normal substances react opposite to this

10. The Most Impermeable material 

The Graphene is the most impermeable material ever found. Even not a single small helium atom can pass through this

11. Ideal Gas Detector


Graphene has excellent electron mobility and large specific surface area, and exhibits good gas sensing properties. ... Thus, graphene is particularly sensitive to the detection of adsorbed small molecule gases. The donor and acceptor depend on the relative position of the electron energy level orbit of the system.
