The aim of this journal is to
inform about graphene, one of the newest and most promising materials in the
world. Graphene is the thinnest, lightest and most transparent material known
to mankind. Its possibilities seem endless because of its many properties that
are only exploited when graphene is combined with other materials, including
gasses, metals, and sources of carbon. The methodology used for bringing forth
the amazing possibilities of graphene includes reading various scientific
papers and websites. Watching videos on YouTube that explain everything
regarding graphene was also a very helpful tool in getting a better
understanding of the true value and importance of graphene. Although graphene
holds the solution to many problems, it is still in an early phase of research.
The uses of graphene range from solar panels and smart phones to biological
engineering and ultrafiltration. The price of graphene is linked to its
quality, and not all applications require superb material quality. Mechanically
exfoliated graphene comes in small, high-quality flakes that are incredible
expensive, costing several thousand dollars per flake. The application of
graphene in everyday appliances will therefore take some time. Graphene is
bound to change our lives, to change the world we live in. Although it is
currently facing certain problems, such as its cost, it still has a bright
future ahead of itself because of it limitless application.
