Molten carbon can crystallize into diamond or graphite, but it has been difficult to study this process. New simulations show that graphite can sometimes "hijack" the pathway that would lead to ...

The graphite-binding peptide and surface phenomena. The amino acid sequence of the dodecapeptide displays three chemically different domains and schematic representation of the possible surface ...

They’re considered some of the strongest materials on the planet, but tapping that strength has proved to be a challenge. 2D materials, thinner than the most delicate onionskin paper, have attracted ...

The outlook for the graphite market is promising due to its usage in the battery industry and energy storage applications, as well as steel-making. With China dominating the natural graphite market, ...
