A universally acceptable standard for graphene, which retains most or all of its high purity and energy properties, could arguably come from a graphite source that has undergone little modification. Grafoid Inc's Dr. Gordon Chiu outlines the caseGraphenes material capabilities provide the material sciences community with a tremendous opportunity to change the world.Discovered in 2004 by a simple mechanical process using Scotch Tape, graphene, derived from graphite, is a single atom thick sheet of sp2 hybridized carbon atoms.In 2010, the discovery of graphene won a Nobel Prize for its discoverers and has since been part of intense scientific research as a wonder material because of its significant mechanical, electrical and thermal properties.
