The king of new materials —— Graphene

China weak link in the development of graphene industry, around the graphene material scale preparation, graphene materials industrialization application and graphene industry quality improvement research and development direction, to carry out the key generic technology research, support building through graphene field innovation chain, industrial chain, capital chain, talent chain and value chain of innovation system, booster graphene industry innovation and development in our country.

Graphene has excellent optical, electrical and mechanical properties, and has important applications in materials science, micro-nano processing, energy, biomedicine and drug delivery. It is considered as a revolutionary material for the future. The 1 mm thick graphite contains about 3 million layers of graphene.

Graphene materials have excellent electrical conductivity, excellent mechanical properties, extremely high thermal conductivity, super specific surface area, excellent barrier properties, etc., in the lithium battery conductive paste, coating, thermal conductivity film, flexible display and sensors are applied, known as the "king of new materials".

The upstream of graphene is raw materials such as graphite ore and methane, the midstream is the manufacturing of graphene compounds and graphene films, and the downstream is terminal products such as coatings, ink, mobile phones, touch screens and other applications.

At present, the graphene in chemistry, materials, physics, biology, environment, energy, and many other disciplines has made a series of important progress, with the continuous optimization and improvement of graphene preparation process, graphene preparation cost will gradually reduce, graphene will rely on its excellent material performance is more widely used, graphene industry in China is expected to enter the rapid growth.

Graphene (Graphene) is a two-dimensional carbon nanomaterial with a hexagonal honeycomb lattice composed of carbon atoms in a sp hybrid orbit. With excellent optical, electrical and mechanical properties, graphene has important applications in materials science, micro-nano processing, energy, biomedicine and drug delivery, and is considered as a revolutionary material for the future. Physicists Andreheim and Konstantinovoselov of the University of Manchester, UK, successfully separated graphene from graphite by micromechanical stripping, thus winning the 2010 Nobel Prize in physics.
