Nanotube Rebar Strengthens Graphene

Nanotube Rebar Strengthens Graphene
Aug-05-18
Ultra-useful graphene gets a boost of strength from nanotube rebar.

The reinforced graphene was developed by a team from Rice University, who embedded the material with carbon nanotubes. According to the team, the nanotubes divert and bridge cracks to keep the graphene flexible and help it withstand stress. The new graphene is twice as strong a standard graphene, and could have applications electronic wearables.
