Cheap New Way To Develop Graphene Discovered

They call it a wonder material; graphene can be used for anything from flexible smartphone screens to artificial skin capable of touch, and they say the stuff thinner than a human hair is way stronger that steel. Unfortunately, the one atom-thick material is way to expensive to produce in mass quantities… Until now. Researchers at Glasgow University claim they’ve developed a way to manufacture the stuff that’s about a hundred times cheaper than traditional methods. They say affordable graphene opens the door for a slew of new devices and technology.
