Graphene’s Imperfect and Cheaper Form Helps Develop Nanoscrolls

In the future, billions of small graphene-based nanoscrolls could be used to develop water filters. A single, atom-thick layer of graphene is rolled up to make a single scroll. Each scroll can be custom made to trap particular molecules and pollutants in its firmly wound rolls. A highly selective, durable, and lightweight water purification membrane can be developed by stacking billions of these nanoscrolls in layers.

French Skiers Wearing Directa Plus and Colmar's Graphene-Enhanced Suits Win at FIS World Cup

The fabric used to make the ski suits incorporates Directa Plus’ Graphene Plus (G+), which makes the material both bacteriostatic and electrostatic, thereby reducing the friction with air and water to enable top sporting performance. In addition, the thermally conductive properties of the suits mean they are able to act as a filter between the body and the external environment, ensuring that the wearer always remains at an ideal temperature.

Study Shows How Graphene-Based Nanostructures Capture Infrared Light

Capturing infrared light with graphene-based nanostructures has been demonstrated by scientists from CIC nanoGUNE, in partnership with Graphenea and ICFO. When light combines with graphene’s charge oscillation, the result is a mixture of charge oscillations and light referred to as plasmon, which can be compressed into minute volumes that are millions times smaller than those present in traditional dielectric optical cavities.
