Graphene: Not Just A Blockchain Ecosystem

Graphene is well-known across the Steemit community for being the revolutionary blockchain ecosystem that powers the Steem blockchain. However, I have noticed many Steemians are unaware of another revolutionary Graphene that is becoming increasingly popular among the most important industries across the planet.

It is a material called Graphene and is just as revolutionary as the Graphene blockchain technology that rivals Ethereum and Bitcoin.

Graphene is one of the most highly sought after substances in many Research & Development (R&D) industries such as aerospace, aviation, medicine, defense, and energy. Currently it is used in sensors, electronics, membrane applications, sensors, and in coatings and composites.

So what the heck is this legendary substance Graphene?

It's high tech lineage can be traced back to one of the most non-tech items out there, the pencil.

Pencils the tools we use to write down those epic, random ideas down is actually made up of Graphene. It is the millions of very thin layers that are stacked together to form the graphite in your pencil.

Being studied since 1947, Graphene has literally been sitting in front of us this entire time for us to use, we just never realized the full potential of it beginning in 2004.

So what makes Graphene so legendary and one of the substances that will benefit humanity the most in the future?

Just listen to the following features and benefits:

• it is the lightest material on planet Earth AND one of the strongest. Graphene is 100-200x stronger than Steel. Let me say that again. It is 200x stronger than steel yet it is 1 million times thinner than a human hair. Are you starting to see which it is such a revolutionary material

• it is the most conductive material on Earth. Graphene acts as an epic conductor of electricity, hence it's heavy applications in electronics and power sources.

• it is the first 2D material on Earth. Not 3D, 4D, Graphene is literally two-dimensional. As a result, scientists and R&D departments can do previously unimaginable experiments creating all new fields of study.

• it is extremely stretchable, flexible, and impermeable. The impermeble nature of Graphene is what is making it extremely attractive to the bio tech and medical fields because of its controlled drug and medicine delivery applications.

So let me recap, Graphene is light, thin, strong, flexible, conductive, transparent, impermeable, and 2D.

Does that not sound like the most revolutionary material on planet Earth?

As you can see, the features, benefits, and applications of Graphene are absolutely incredible and will truly transition this world into the future where high-tech transport and boundless energy are staples of society.

I have been working on Graphene-based ideas for about five (5) years now and they keep on coming. Curious to see what the Steemit community knows about Graphene and what applications they can use in this actual community.

Imagine the Steem platform powered by the Graphene ecosystem which is powered by Graphene, the material.

If I were you I would do a deep dive on Graphene as I have a feeling it will change your life just as much as it did for me.

Stay tuned to more posts about Graphene and science-related posts to find out what revolutionary ideas and materials will be apart of this new chapter on Earth we are entering.

Thank you as always for your time and attention.
