There are many things graphene can be used for, including energy storage. It can also be used to make membranes that capture carbon dioxide. It can even be used to make motorbike helmets more durable. We'll discuss a few uses for graphene in this article.
Graphene can be used as an energy storage device
Graphene, a thin sheet of carbon, can store energy at very high rates. It is composed of one layer of carbon that is packed together in a hexagonal honeycomb structure. It has amazing properties and is being used in many different applications. These include energy storage, electrochemical sensors, and absorbers. However, graphene's commercialization potential is still not fully realized.
Supercapacitors also use graphene as an electrode. It is fast and can store nearly as much energy than a lithium-ion battery. It can also store tens to thousands of charge cycles making it an attractive storage device for energy.
It can create membranes that capture carbon dioxide
Graphene can be used as a carbon capture material to create membranes that have superior performance in capturing CO2 emissions. The fabrication process can be difficult. This study uses graphene oxide (GO),-based hollow fibre membranes to separate N2 and CO2 under wet conditions. These membranes contain piperazine which is introduced through a carrier brush into GO nanochannels.
Graphene is capable of producing carbon capture membranes with a higher efficiency than commercially available membranes. Researchers also found that graphene can reduce carbon capture costs by 30%. Global warming is caused by carbon dioxide, which is pumped into our atmosphere from the burning of fossil fuels as well as the production of cement or steel. Scientists are working to find a way to capture carbon dioxide so that it can be used in other chemical processes.
This can make motorcycle helmets more durable
Graphene can make motorcycle helmets more comfortable and durable. Because of its unique properties, graphene can dissipate heat while protecting the inner shell materials from being damaged in an accident. Momo Design's helmet is an example of a graphene coated motorbike helmet. The helmet's lightweight design and graphene coating provide comfort and safety during a crash.
Although graphene isn't yet used extensively in helmets, it has been used in ski helmets and bicycle helmets. The material is both flexible and firm, depending on the application. It conducts electricity well.
