It's not that surprising. The strength of composite materials like concrete depend hugely on what kinds of materials the binders (cement in this case) is holding together. Sand and gravel are the traditional additional ingredients that make concrete, but things like glass and basalt fibers have been shown to add quite a bit of strength and crack resilience. You see the same thing with epoxy composites like fiberglass and carbon fiber. You can make very strong epoxy composites by mixing in everything from sawdust to industrial diamonds. This is another application of the same principle.

@@matthewcapobianco9332 There are already many carbon nano-materials that are carcinogenic. Carbon nanotubes for example. Don't breathe them in. They have the same issue as asbestos, they enter the lungs as sharp little fibers that cause inflammation and scarring. It's the shape and size that matters, not chemical composition. I suspect fiber cement made with graphene would have the same carcinogenic properties as fiber cement made with asbestos. Even if there were a safe way to have graphene in cement, you have to have an economical and safe way of discarding it. It's important to think of the whole life-cycle of a building. Asbestos is also a wonder material by the way, it just also happens that asbestos dust will kill you. So you don't want it to catch on fire and you want to carefully remove it before you demolish the building. If you can't tear down graphene cement without releasing small fibers into the air, then you can't build with it. I'm sure there will be a study about this at some point.

Right now it's yielding similar properties to carbon and glass fibre reinforced concrete. The major issue is that it is a simple blend, although adding great properties to concrete its pricing makes it more of a novelty (unfortunate). We need to get to a stage of having graphene strands stretched across the concrete - this would be the ultimate 'game changer' (let's continue to watch this space). . Thanks for the video.

Same reason why carbon is added to iron to make steel. It's got a lot of tensile strength, which means that mixing it into a material without much tensile strength increases its overall durability. When concrete flexes, it tends to develop tears and cracks, those widen into full breaks. When you add graphene into it, then the strength of the graphene helps to stop the formation of those cracks.

I am a scientist and I worked as part of the European Graphene Flagship Program while I was at Cambridge. I can tell you first hand: it is all hype, and the top professors were laughing all the way to the bank. The material is practically impossible to process in a scalable way, and as soon as you try to suspend exfoliated graphene in a solution or composite matrix, it stacks back to form graphite particles that lose the “magic” properties of graphene. It is a complete technological white elephant. You’d be better off reinforcing concrete with fibreglass or carbon fibre.

I understand that graphene is the strongest substance we've found/created, and I understand the theory of how a sheet of graphene works. But I thought it had to actually be a sheet to produce it's properties. I don't understand how adding a tiny amount of very tiny bits of graphene to something (e.g., cement) helps to strengthen it. How are these tiny unbonded pieces helping to strengthen the substance, exactly? I don't get it.

2:19...hold your horses boyo. There are real life actual products using graphene really well. Haglofs mimic platinum (sythetic down fill for jackets etc) is a thing. And a blooming good one at that. Put on a jacket with the plafinum mimic fill and you literally feel your body heat warming the jacket and therefore the rest of you within the jacket almost instantly. It really is amazing. Honestly. So impressed and you can tell the difference easily. Also Vittoria bike tyres have been using it for years. Not had that much experience with them personally but they were an early adopter. Give people credit where it's due. And do some research before making sweeping statements.

It can seep into groundwater and be inhaled if aerosolized. Breathing it can cause metal fume fever and ingesting too much zinc can cause damage to your nervous system, anemia, and pancreatic damage. High levels of zinc in soil will kill most plants. If the plants can handle the zinc they can pass it up the food chain in higher concentrations to animals. Zinc also acidifies water which can kill a lot of water life and accumulates in fish. Essentially all high concentrations of zinc in the world come from human activity.

The claims made here are similar to what was achieved with other fillers in the past. One reason the fullerene, graphene, carbon- or glass-fiber composite wonder materials from the late 80s and 90s never took off or seen limited use, is the problem of recycling those materials. The regulation changes we need might be those that further limit the use of non recyclable composites, regardless of cost saving advantages they might bring. And what about that 200 story building with a exiting new shape, impossible to build otherwise? Yeah, maybe the world doesn't need it.

@tjpprojects71923 жыл бұрын
I kind of hate the "can't get out of the lab", and "it'll be available in 30 years, 30 years ago" jokes. For much of human civilization, people didn't hear about inventions until AFTER they became successful. They never experienced the sometimes decades worth of research and development that can go into products. They just see it one day, and assume everything must be super easy. Then they get pissy and start whining when something "takes forever". Like FFS the photovoltaic effect was discovered in 1839, and we didn't have REASONABLE solar panels until the last 10-20 years. That's over 160 years for just solar panels! But then people are like "oh herp de derp, graphene will never get out of the lab despite it only being made 17 years ago, durrrr. I so smart". It's the same thing with fusion. The media says "fusion could be 30/20/50 years away" despite having NO experience with nuclear fusion AT ALL, and then people decide to blame the SCIENTISTS and ENGINEERS for what the MEDIA said! Also despite the fact that they're basically trying to contain a god in a bottle (at least if you go by many ancient civilization belief structures).
