Italian bicycle tire manufacturer Vittoria Industries recently announced that it is launching a new range of products employing a second generation of its graphene-filler technology. The graphene supplier is assumed to be Perpetuus Carbon, as the two companies signed...

Rice team creates laser-induced graphene nanogenerators that turn movement into energy

Rice University researchers have recently taken the idea of wearable devices that harvest energy from movement to a new level. Prof. James Tour’s lab has adapted laser-induced graphene (LIG) into small, metal-free devices that generate electricity.Putting the...
New method ‘sttiches’ together rGO sheets into ultra-strong films

New method ‘sttiches’ together rGO sheets into ultra-strong films

A team of researchers from China has reported a novel strategy to ‘stitch’ together reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanosheets into ultra-strong, tough, and highly conductive graphene films using only small amounts of cross-linker. They show that the bridging...
