A diversified application of graphene

Graphene as resin composite additive has good market prospects with high specific strength, modulus, fatigue resistance and damping performance. There are two main advantages of using graphene in ink: one is strong compatibility, graphene ink can achieve printing in plastic film, paper and the metal foil tablets, and variety base material; the conductive performance is better than carbon base material, while its cost lower than Nano metal conductive ink, such as Nano Silver and nano Copper powder. Compared to Nano Silver, the cost of graphene conductive ink can reduced 30%.

Graphene can be widely applied to various fields for it has thin, super strength characteristics, such as ultra light bullet-proof vests, ultra-thin ultralight materials, and so on. According to its excellent electrical conductivity, it also has great potential in the field of microelectronics. Graphene maybe a possible alternative to silicon to manufacture miniature transistor. Besides, graphene material is a good modification agent. Because of its high conductivity and high surface area in new energy field, it may be useful as an electrode material AIDS.

Graphene has a diversified application in lithium ion battery, currently it used as conductive additives in cathode material to improve electrode material of conductive performance, magnification performance and cycle life. Added 2% graphene can make phosphate iron lithium pole pieces of resistance rate reduce to 1 ω cm. This is far over the effect of equal quality proportion of carbon nano tube or conductive carbon black.

Graphene oxide has great effective on inhibiting the growth of Escherichia coli, and it will not harm human cells. If graphene oxide also has antibacterial activity on other bacteria, then a range of new applications may be found. Studies have shown that Graphene filters may be substantially more than other desalination technologies. As Graphene can modify chemistry capabilities, large contact area, foot-inch thickness of the atom, molecular gate structure, it can be be used in bacteria detection and diagnosis devices.

The unique two-dimensional structure of graphene makes it has a bright prospect in the field of sensor. Single Atom adsorption and release process can be directly observed by transmission electron microscope. By measuring the Hall effect can be indirectly detected a single atom of adsorption and release process. When a gas molecule is adsorbed on the graphite surface, adsorption sites will occur localized change in electricity resistance. Of course, this effect also occurs in other substances, but graphene has a high conductivity and low-noise quality, as well as capable of detecting small changes in resistance. Read more here!
