Graphene might be one of the world's most useful materials. Though it's only one carbon atom thick, it's many times stronger than steel, and highly flexible to boot. Ever since it was first isolated by researchers in 2004, the list of patents involving graphene has grown exponentially every year. It may not be long before this super material spawns a technological revolution that could truly change the world. Graphene is the world's first ever 2-D carbon material and is often called as a wonder material. It is resistant to fire and is an effective conductor which is extremely versatile and is 200 times stronger than steel. In the chemical industry, it is taken as a very effective catalyst owing to its properties such as high surface area and adsorption power. Graphene is a super conductor of heat & electricity and find its application in memory chips and screens of mobile phones.
