I've got a cool followup video about graphene ---> carbon nanotubes. Check it out and let me know what you think! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lnZpaunXhGc.html
@Jean-Marc Chauveau Agreed had many arguments with people about this also, renewable energy is the way forward which ever way you look at it and Elon Musk has done more then anyone to move this along.
@Jean-Marc Chauveau Yet Elon Musk totally failed to deliver a battery that performed like that. The cult of celebrity doesn't advance technology at all.
Hello! Few notes. I do graphene research with CVD. The main issue for a lack of manufacturing with products we want is because growth tends to only yield small flakes of varying thickness. There's a ton of small flakes but, we want large sheets so that they can be used for electronics. But, that's incredibly difficult. The things shown only use flakes and the flash technique only creates flakes, which is good if that's what you need for some reason. But, the most important breakthrough will be when large sheets of single layer pristine graphene are produced. Many people are working on this but no one has really been too successful on it. Maybe your next video can include the roller sheets of graphene production. I think MIT did that one. Heck, maybe my technique will be in your next graphene video if I'm lucky. :)
Exactly. I used to do research on CVD graphene and carbon nanotube manufacturing. I will just add that nanotubes are also incredibly difficult to grow. We can make really short strands of varying thickness (multi-walled tubes) and cannot control the chirality of the tubes, which is important because it affects the semiconducting properties. Also the tubes are really sharp and can damage the membranes of living cells.
@@TommiV226 no. It's not that simple. Think of a powder. Plus, in our environment, the edges tend to bond with another element pretty quickly. A lot of times, that's hydrogen, given the precursor material.
If the graphene is two dimensional, wouldn't it essentially be invisible in our three dimensional world; or could it even exist in our 3D universe? It was also stated in the video that it was 1 atom thick, which would technically classify it as 3D (being 1 atom thick is also a dimensional measurement).
@@tombarclay7108 I get your confusion. It makes total sense. Graphene is definitely "3D". It's just common to call things 2D in condensed matter physics when it is only 1 atom thick. This is because it is at its smallest unit (an atom). Also, you can definitely see graphene with your eyes. This is because as light passes through it, the light phase is shifted. So, this creates a slight difference from ambient light. It's almost like looking through very poor sunglasses.

Man, it sounds awesome, but suddenly I got the fear that graphene could be the next plastic. Like "yay, we have this stuff thats awesome, and won't break down, so we can use it in everything." Except then we use it in everything. And it doesn't break down. And it pollutes just as bad, or worse, than plastic. :/
@@fractal5764 don't even bother with the antivaxxers man, they are extremely misguided. First it was that they were injecting 5g antennas into us and now this. They just conflate any new tech with the "bad" vaccine smh
Mass production of high quality graphene will change the world from the ground up. One of my favorite uses is as a girdle for a solid lithium cathode in batteries. It addresses the problem of expansion degradation and gives us acces to a battery with 6 times the energy density we currently have on the market, imagine a tesla that gos 1800 miles on a single charge. Or more likely a 200 mile electric car that costs less than a chevy spark.
Finally someone gets it. The battery is the most expensive (and heaviest) part of an electric car. Why are we putting enormous batteries with 600 mile range in cars when a smaller battery which gives 200 mile range (suitable for 99.999% of car trips) will take $1000's off the price and drastically improve performance?
That's like saying "learning how to fly will revolutionise getting the morning paper of the front porch." Imagining good uses for this material is trivial. The mass manufacturing is the real problem we should be thinking about.
When put in the bloodstream of unsuspecting people it can form electronic circuits, and when a frequency is generated near that person they can be made to dance like a puppet, or drop dead instantly. It’s really great stuff.

"Another" product that was hyped? I fail to see how the information here would lead anyone to believe that graphene has been hyped. It still seems to be a product with qualities that make it superior to other materials. It simply needs more time for researching cheaper production methods.
@@donthesitatebegin9283 I can think of far worse things that have been payed for with tax payer dollars, by orders of magnitude.

Maybe some of the researchers applied for government grants(not addressed in the video) but I fail to see why this is the focus of your attention.
It will send the price of vaccines through the roof IF they can find enough laboratories to manufacture enough of the stuff to supply millions of doses. That would send the price way over what the stuff currently costs, which is over 2.5 times the price of gold.

@@Freeontheland2030 I am looking for a scientific research paper that details how they went about proving graphene oxide is in the injections ... like the paper by Dr. Harrit that concludes nanothermate was discovered in the dust from ground zero at the ruins of the WTC.
Activated charcoal is used in water treatment. Can be dumped in land fill or incinerated. Coal burning produces carbon in soot. When it comes down in snow it lowers the albedo and the snow/ice melts faster. Enough is falling in the arctic to cause a measurable environmental effect. Graphene, nanotubes, buckyballs, and nanodiamonds are found in interstellar dust. Has been raining down on Earth for billions of years.
@@stefanr8232 The product itself is likely benign, but that doesn't answer the question. Compare this to semiconductor wafers. They are made of silicon (essentially sand), but the process uses massive amounts of water and energy along with some really nasty chemicals.
@@TEScharf I reread your question and it clearly asks about disposal. Anyway... The turbostratic graphene has no toxic byproduct. Solvents used to separate sheets could be toxic but organic solvents can be fed right back into the arc chamber. A good way to dispose of some toxins. from other industries Graphene production methods that use a substrate or catalyst will have those as potential waste. The energy consumed in turbostratic graphene production will be much higher than energy needed to produce equivalent amounts of coke or steel. Likely to be less than an order of magnitude higher. The question would be what fraction of the soot is usable graphene. If, for example, 1% of the carbon is usable graphene than multiply the energy demand by x100. I have seen suggestions that graphene be used as a carbon sink for sequestration. That is complete hogwash. So long as there are any coal, oil, or gas electric powerplants running the energy demand will increase atmospheric carbon. If the graphene concrete additive allows for a large decrease in Portland cement mass used it might reduce atmospheric carbon enough to produce less emission overall.
I still want to see a sheet of graphene standing the weight of an elephant resting on top of a pencil, like they said. It's either that dope or a bummer.
Just try to remember where the science was on lighting fixtures 20 years ago. Virtually all lighting fixtures relied on a filament or a gas filled tube to give us light. Now LEDs are everywhere and are continuiing to deveop new products. Once the basic science has been sufficiently perfected, graphene will usher in a lot new products that we cannot ever dream of now. When they come to market, things will be so different, we will wonder how we got along without them. Graphene is the future.
@Donald Kasper The fact that you conflate over hyped media coverage with graphene being worthless argues counter to your point. Moreover I did not say stupid, only poorly informed.
@Donald Kasper claims are not science, news media often are looking for clicks not aiming to inform. The 20x steel proposition is based on theoretical calculations. Flying cars and moon bases were not promises.
Great to see such a balanced approach. Far too often you see applications for graphene that look for all the World as if someone raised some money from optimistic investors and spent it as if for the sake of it, to develop something 'with graphene' as if that alone makes it worth it. Improving lithium batteries could be a game changer. The space ladder, not so much, unless it's really thin...
I like the idea of graphene, but it also makes me think "what if?". My university course (1979-1982) was in Metallurgy, but shared its first year with courses in Materials Science in Ceramics. I had an interest, long since dormant, but due to be revived, in electronics and spent some time - though did nothing practical - considering whether components drawn on paper with pencil might function the same as the actual components. I don't recall what triggered this, but it may have been learning that pencil leads could conduct electricity. As it was, my involvement with any of these subjects ended with my university days.
My main question is how well this breaks down in landfills and it's recycling possibilities. Will this super material turn out to be worse for the planet than plastic once us humans are done with it?
Fortunately it does not break down. It will settle into the ground and stay there. This is unlike much of the rest of the electronics which can leach toxins into the water table or plastics which can become toxins and/or add methane and ozone to the atmosphere. Graphene is one of the most reliable forms of carbon sequestration.
I don't quite understand your reasoning - the material is pure carbon. Even if it is difficult to recycle, I highly doubt it is worse than plastics etc.
So, with graphene being so heat conductive, how exactly would that eliminate the need for a/c in hot climates? Seems to me it would just mean 110 outside, 110 inside.
From the little I've gathered it seems it's kind of hard to imagine the functioning of such new materials as one has never encountered anything with properties that come anywhere close.
@@gyro5d it can't go only one direction. In fact if it's so conductive it would have the opposite desired outcome. You'd want insulating material to keep temp differential
@@mattwoolley Yep, that's why thick rammed earth buildings, thick adobe buildings, and the like tend to be cooler during the day than most other types of shelters--there is either so much thermal mass and/or insulation, that it takes most of the day for the material and inside to heat up from the sun and warmth of the day because it has spent all night cooling down (opening the windows or turning the AC on at night help). I'm going to be experimenting/working on inexpensive, light weight, composite based vacuum insulation panels using a combo of cardboard, S-glass cloth, Titebond III glue or sodium silicate, Al or SS foil, balsa wood, and carbonized cellulose nanocrystals (C-CNC). If these end up working well, one could make small homes using such panels, and if this is combined with a Solar driven heated/adsorption chiller system and some fans, you could keep such a shelter very cool at very low energy.
I've heard many times that it takes 20 years to go from cutting edge ideas in a lab to mass production of items we can buy. In the case of graphene, people hoped to get there much faster, but it didn't happen. Still, having some competitive products on the market in 2024 sounds realistic. I love to move fast, and I'm as impatient as any engineer, but some things to take time.
@@ancaro8771 Yes, Teflon was 10 years. Lithium ion batteries (John Goodenough) was 13 years. RAM memory was only about four years (1971 invention, transition away from iron core was 1973-1977). For aerospace or nuclear, maybe 20 years, but I think you're right Dwane, a lot of time it's closer to 10 than 20. It depends a lot of whether certification is needed and what supporting technologies must be co-developed.
Hey you're an engineer? Can you tell me why I couldn't put 2 to 4 JetCat Pros at 155lbs thrust each and only 8lbs weight into a carbon fiber and titanium ultralight F22 miniature replica at under 254lbs empty weight and put myself in it and haul ass? At a same or way better power to weight of the F22. Yes, yes, less than 15min fuel time...but I'll lay flat face first..head in the window and have the rest and wings all be fuel tank. I'm not playing, I have over $15k into a knee mill brand new not even wired up in my garage right now, can make any part in the world. Why not? With graphene it'd be even lighter and stronger.
I remember hearing about this literally a decade or so ago. I said, not gonna work, 2 lbs of it on all of Earth naturally & it's literally a thin 2d, flaky yet very strong material; how are you going to make a lot without insane cost?
Similar story of Alon, "transparent aluminum." Still waiting for eyeglass lenses to be made from it. Maybe put them in Graphene frames. Not holding my breath.

Everything sounds great, except for the monitoring "patch". Great concept for Governments to "monitor" EVERYTHING you do, and if there's an "off switch", they can maybe just turn you off from anywhere when you're no longer needed.
Yes in the blood stream sounds extreme.....you say great conductor of electricity and exellent for monitoring health of patients. The vaccine contains graphine? What are long term effects?
Graphene layers can be combined with other materials to create new kind of sensors, very precise and flexible ones. In the video, they show an external sensor, on the skin, but it could be internal (on a pacemaker, for example). These sensors wouldn't be toxic. Injecting nanoparticles of graphene in the blood stream, freely going everywhere, that could be toxic. Nanoparticles like that could cause inflammatory reactions, among other effects researchers need to document exhaustively. There's no graphene in the vaccines, for what I know.
Good Job, MATT ...I was working on the shape (hexagonal) in 3d ...with an ion (metallic) in the center in the 90s ...then in 2006 I started following 'Graphene' ...then 'Fullerene (Buckminster Fuller) ...I figured that Nano-3d printers were only moments away for Medical (Biology) (Star Trek 'Food Replicators) SO....putting my shape/material compound together into spools of thread could make textiles ...Carrier Current ...Ambient Battery Cores an experiment: HELIUM spray (one mole) into Polyethylene Glycol (bubbles) could carry CPU, wireless CAMERA at eye level ...ION DRIVE (no moving parts) Inertial adjustments ...replace helium with HYDROGEN derived by electrolysis with thermal entropy (LIGHT EMITTING) Graphene Shape generator...

If you compare a material to steel it would be also nice to mention which steel is meant since the tensile strength from steels ranges from 200 to 6000 Mpa. Also it should be sayed that strength is not the only property which is important for designing a material there is also the fracture toughness an ductility which play a significant role.
I purchashed the Real Graphine battery brick about two years ago. Left me tell you there is nothing better I have found. Charge time is 4x faster. This is the way of the future.
So Graphene can feasibly replace/augment all uses of steel, alloys, glass, silicon and plastics. To produce Graphene requires a plentiful and disposable source of carbon and lots of energy. To me it seems like companies like Shell and BP should become the leading producers of graphene in kick-starting a graphene-future.
Hello, Matt. Even though this video is 6 months old now, it's the first video of yours I've watched. Just became a subscriber too. Graphene is the future. The possibilities really are endless. Well done!
My daughter got her P.H.D working with and developing graphene at the university of Manchester the potential is massive but there are a lot of hurdles to overcome.
Hi Matt, another great video (love where you are going with this topic). Imagine a guy like (Elon) really focus most of the resources from space-x into researching graphene technology (applying both mass production and green technology philosophy via Tesla), just think about the result in 5-10 yrs?? That would be great for generations to come and also preserving planet Earth. Well....This remains a Sci-fi movie until then....
Impatience. We are so used to instant gratification these days. These incredible scientific discoveries take teams, years, accidents, study, horrific disasters to harness. No doubt eventually graphene will be important and could change the world, but like carbon fiber that had people going bananas 20 years ago, it will get there.
I wish I was born 30 years from now so I can fully see by the end of my life how much Graphene has revolutionized human life (assuming we survive that long)
A Spanish University called "La Quinta Columna" performed test on some of the vaccine vial contents and found that they contained a material that highly resembles Graphene Oxide. Not sure what the exact purpose of this would be, but I think it has to do with testing for future bio-technologies. There was also a news segment clip that I ran into where the news anchor announced that the pentagon is working to develop a subnormal implant that would alert users when they get infected in real time.
@They are putting graphene in your brain no but if people were as stupid and brainwashed as today they might as well have, and now I’ve heard that they are talking about to pills a day too, when will the sheep’s wake up ???
I’ve been reading and watching about this for since around 2011. Will be fun to come back to this video in another ten years and it will still be relevant.
True Graphene is being produced & sold in tonnage rates now guys. See www.firstgraphene.net (Not hoax rubbish) ISO pending & used by GEIC at Univ of Manchester GEIC.
Can you do something on (pardon my ignorance) "Borophene" or "Borene" or whatever it's called -- I.e. single molecule sheets of Boron. It also sounds revolutionary!
Because it is capable of breaking through the blood brain barrier. It can take synapses of your brain and send the information to any one that needs it. The future is not too bright.
Fusion may or may not happen. Thorium is what you should hope for. The technology could have existed now if in the 1960s governments invested in thorium not uranium (they chose uranium because of weapons applications). And thorium power is basically meltdown-proof and is very hard to adapt for weapons use.
The problem is we cannot grow a continuous single layer sheet because the substrate it’s grown on cannot be perfectly flat - there’s holes and cracks many many atoms thick.
It won't ever start to get used because of corruption. Big companies that makes money on producing and selling metals can't have that happening. Also consider this. If Airplanes and cars started weighing less, they'd use less fuel, and the big oil companies can't have that happening.
OMG just discovered your channel by searching for more info on benefits of graphene. Love your energy delivery articulation. Keep up the good work. Your new fan!😊
Thanks Matt, thanks for informing us all about graphiine in its problems and its opportunities I really appreciate what you do and how you put it all together thanks so much and keep up the good work.
Graphene is very super conductive. Super conductivity created magnetism. Graphene is or has a Nuclear up-spin, therefore it is dominantly North-Polarity. Put some graphite on a strong rare-earth-magnet on the South-Pole and keep it (not on you) close to you while working and sleeping while taking Oral Chelation and it will expel the graphene from your body in a few days!
Can a 3D printer do things with graphene? In particular, could a 3D printer be used to produce alloys or tiny complex ultra-thin materials in a quick and repeatable manner? This is the trillion dollar question that could be exactly what makes this jump from the lab to the open market.
I would like to know what are the health hazards of a single strand of graphene floating around in your blood stream or breathed into your lungs. Thanks.
Grafene exist in nature, it's only carbon grafit, thausen of people inhale it in small chips and enter into their blood, so I guess it wouldn't have a major effect.
Graphite will be a very important material for the future. Compacted Graphite Iron is already replacing Cast Iron in the casting of IC engine blocks. It's 60% more resistant in fatigue strain which allows a thinner wall & lighter weight. It's also less expensive then aluminum. However, we need to be more grounded w/ the use of lithium batteries. As far as I know there is no process that can safely recycle the battery. The components of the battery are exceptionally toxic & any ingress into the ground water would be disastrous. These products don't last indefinitely & even if they do, there is always something better developed later to replace it.
I just order two Mazza mountain bike tires. The Mazza is the tire manufacturer, Vittoria's, newest offering and uses a new, graphene-impregnated rubber compound on the tire's center tread cleats in order to reduce rolling resistance while improving durability and grip on mixed-trail surfaces.
I've only watched 3 of this channel's videos so far. But I'm really pleased by the sponsor segues hitting a sweet spot managing to be smooth and relevant without feeling deceptive or manipulative.

@@BrandonSL500 The graphene probably has a large thermal retention, so heat during the day will be sucked into the walls and emitted when the night gets cold. Its the same idea as water. The reason why most coastal cities not along the equator have a mostly constant temperature is because the ocean supplies heat during the colder seasons and absorb heat during the warmer seasons, resulting in semi constant weather.
That's not how electricity works. A dangerous amount of electricity would only flow through your body if it was the path of least resistance to ground which it definitely wouldn't be if your walls are conductive. This is why you won't get electrocuted if you touch water on the ground that has live wires in it. Video games and TV has sadly misinformed a lot of people. A conductive wall would still not be safe for other reasons but a layer of insulating material would fix that. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dcrY59nGxBg.html
I would imagine that electricity would have a million paths that would rather take first if the wall was made entirely of graphene since it would be less resistant instead of taking my skin as the first path
laugh if u will, but the only thing stopping the utilization of 'space elevators' is the strength requirement graphene is promising. we probably have everything already 'off the shelf' to build said elevators, except the strength (tension) that steel cables don't have. the much lighter weight of graphene doesn't hurt in the final analysis either. we take elevators/lifts for granted today because they are everywhere and offer a reliable and safe form of vertical transportation. we all owe mr. otis and others like him a debt of gratitude. wouldn't it be nice in the near future if we could take space elevators for granted as well? btw, these concepts could be utilized on places like the moon or mars too; and , with even greater success. less gravity. there will of course be some unforeseen problems to solve. however, i can easily imagine a constant flow of materials, bots and people moving effortlessly between the surface of planets/moons/asteroids and space. i won't get on a rocket, but i will board an elevator to space. would u? going up?
