- The technology grows graphene film in ambient air with a natural precursor, making its production faster and simpler.
- Soybean oil breaks down into a range of carbon building units when heat is applied. It makes it essential for the synthesis of graphene films.
- Significance:
- This unique technology makes graphene fabrication fast, simple, safe, potentially scalable and integration friendly.
- It results in good and transformable graphene properties, comparable to graphene made by conventional methods.
- It is expected to reduce cost of graphene production and improve uptake in new applications.
- Besides, it can also help to produce graphene from waste oil, leftover from cooking.
