Wearing face masks could cause catastrophic lung problems, especially if they are the kind coated with graphene. This is despite the fact that advocates of masks and mask mandates believe that wearing them is essential to preventing the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) from spreading. The latest evidence proving the dangers of wearing face masks comes from Health Canada, the country’s … Continue reading Wearing face masks coated in graphene can cause serious lung problems, warns Health Canada
Graphene could make fertilizer more efficient, affordable and environmentally friendly
Researchers continue to search for fertilizers that are more efficient and affordable. One study, published in the journal Applied Materials and Interfaces, looked at graphene as a carrier for fertilizers to exhibit these characteristics, without causing more harm to the environment. A team of researchers at the University of Adelaide developed a fertilizer carrier using graphene oxide sheets to make effective … Continue reading Graphene could make fertilizer more efficient, affordable and environmentally friendly
Using cannabis, scientists discover inexpensive way to dramatically boost battery storage potential
Researchers presenting at the recent 248th National Meeting & Exposition of the American Chemical Society revealed that fibers from the hemp plant, a variety of the cannabis plant, can be turned into electrodes capable of better storing energy in supercapacitors. The best material currently available for supercapacitor electrodes is graphene, a light-weight material that is … Continue reading Using cannabis, scientists discover inexpensive way to dramatically boost battery storage potential
