Graphene Synthesis by Dry-Ice Method - NIU Video

Professor Narayan Hosmane, leader of a NIU research group, examined a long-standing scientific process of burning magnesium metal in carbon dioxide to produce carbon. While this is a well-known chemical production, Hosmane was the first to notice that the structure of the carbon formed from this was in fact few-layer graphene. This newly discovered method easily replaced previous endeavors to produce thin layered graphene that utilized both tedious techniques and hazardous chemicals. This realization is especially significant because the process has been scientifically proven to produce carbon, and it has been in use already. This means that graphene has an applicable means for production down to several layers that can be used industrially, which is surprising considering how recent its material discovery was made. The dry ice method provides graphene with a solid backing of being economically viable and simple to manufacture on a large scale. The importance of this means that any application of thin layered graphene can be put into realization easily and that mass production of any plausible application is a feasible objective provided the graphene can be integrated through verified methods.

Wow. 92% yield! That's incredible!

You probably did find out already that by burning or treating with excessive heat you are disintegrating the natural circling electrons and it is hard to set them back in the natural order.That is way so many people in prestige labs see such big resistance in the Graphene sheets but many not credited researchers has good results by putting the graphite particles with out any force.
