A kitchen blender helped scientists make graphene from electronic waste
SMRTR summary
Scientists found that graphene, a highly valuable material used in advanced electronics and batteries, can be made using a kitchen blender, tap water, old newspaper, and graphite from discarded electronics. The cellulose fibers from newspaper helped keep separated graphene sheets stable for hours. This low-cost approach could make early-stage graphene research more accessible to schools and smaller labs worldwide.
