  2. Discovery of graphene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discovery_of_graphene

    US patent 6667100, filed in 2002, describes how to process expanded graphite to achieve a graphite thickness of one hundred-thousandth of an inch (0.25 nm). The key to success was high-throughput visual recognition of graphene on a properly chosen substrate that provides a small but noticeable optical contrast.

  3. Dry lubricant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_lubricant

    MoS 2 lubrication performance often exceeds that of graphite and is effective in vacuum as well, whereas graphite is not. The temperature limitation of MoS 2 at 400 °C is restricted by oxidation. Particle size and film thickness are important parameters that should be matched to the surface roughness of the substrate.

  4. Annealed pyrolytic graphite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annealed_pyrolytic_graphite

    Annealed Pyrolytic Graphite (APG), also known as Thermally Annealed Pyrolytic Graphite (TPG), [1] is a form of synthetic graphite that offers excellent in-plane thermal conductivity. As with pyrolytic carbon or pyrolytic graphite (PG), APG is also low in mass, is electrically conductive , and offers diamagnetic properties that allow it to ...

  5. Graphene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphene

    Multilayer samples down to 10 nm in thickness were obtained. [2] In 2002, Robert B. Rutherford and Richard L. Dudman filed for a patent in the US on a method to produce graphene by repeatedly peeling off layers from a graphite flake adhered to a substrate, achieving a graphite thickness of 0.00001 inches (0.00025 millimetres). The key to ...

  7. Graphite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphite

    Graphite (/ ˈ ɡ r æ f aɪ t /) is a crystalline allotrope (form) of the element carbon. It consists of many stacked layers of graphene, typically in the excess of hundreds of layers. Graphite occurs naturally and is the most stable form of carbon under standard conditions.

  8. AA'-graphite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AA'-graphite

    AA'-graphite is an allotrope of carbon similar to graphite, but where the layers are positioned differently to each other as compared to the order in graphite.. AA’ stacking of graphene planes is another crystalline form of graphite (orthorhombic, Fig. 1) which is metastable for Bernal AB graphite (Fig. 2) and reveals a nanocrystalline feature.

  9. Composite laminate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_laminate

    A small sample of aerospace grade carbon-fibre/epoxy laminate. In materials science, a composite laminate is an assembly of layers of fibrous composite materials which can be joined to provide required engineering properties, including in-plane stiffness, bending stiffness, strength, and coefficient of thermal expansion.
