Why we choose this material We choose to do our research project on graphene because it is the thinnest possible matter, but has various unique properties.

Despite the fact that it is thin it can perform many tasks such as conducting electricity better that copper as well as being the best conductor of heat on the planet without the need for a large quantity of this substance .

This interested us because it means that many new inventions that graphene can be used for will not only be very efficient but there will be no need for a large quantity of graphene therefore resulting in the size of the product being smaller thus saving space.

Did you know!!!!!! Graphene is very flexible and can be stretched by 20% without any

damage. A sheet of graphene as thin as cling wrap could hold the weight of an

elephant. Sheets of graphene can crumple like paper but is difficult to flatten

out. It takes 3million stacked sheets of graphene to equal the length of a

pencil tip.
