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.
