Graphite is an incredibly important, versatile mineral, with uses spanning industries. Graphite is an essential component of many batteries, including lithium-ion batteries, and demand is only ...

A University of Washington-led team has discovered that, by stacking a sheet of graphene onto bulk graphite at a small twist angle (top), “exotic” properties present at the graphene-graphite interface ...

(Nanowerk News) The structure of graphite oxide surprisingly expands when cooled in methanol or ethanol. Also, graphite oxide selectively absorbs methanol from water-methanol mixtures. Two new studies ...

(Nanowerk News) New results by scientists at Umeå University show that not only water but also alcohol solvents can be inserted to expand the structure of graphite oxide under high pressure conditions ...

Researchers have found a way to prevent lithium plating in electric vehicle batteries, which could lead to faster charging times. According to the new study, lithium plating can be significantly ...

IN the electron diffraction patterns formed by single crystals of graphite (transmission) we have discovered new spots which would be indexed (½00) or (½½0) (and their symmetrical associates) in the ...
