Geometry in the new creations: Graphene

Technology is just a tool. In terms of motivating children and getting them to work together, the teacher is the most important resource- Bill Gates

As all of you know the Information revolution is here, the new generations is closer to this since they born, nowadays we are "Techies" and all the new generations that are coming are more interested in this. 


One of this researches is the Graphene: Graphene is a substance composed of pure carbon, with atoms arranged in a regular hexagonal pattern, similar to graphite. It is an opaque material.

In this image, you can see how Graphene is made of hexagonal figures. 




Why is useful the Graphene?

In order to get an idea of ​​how many different fields graphene can be applied to, it is necessary to take a look around us and see everything that surrounds us. Computers, cars, mobile phones and music equipment are, to mention just a few of them, things that we find frequently in our daily lives in which graphene could be applied.

Due to its properties, graphene can be used as material in the manufacture of airplanes, space satellites or automobiles, making them safer. Also in the construction of buildings, it would make them more resistant.

But above all, its applications in the field of electronics stand out, where through its capacity to store energy it can give the batteries a longer duration and a shorter loading time, establish faster connections and even contribute to improve the environment replacing polluting materials that we are forced to use today.

We must not forget its relevance in the field of health. The graphene prosthesis could replace the current, of various materials. Or it could even be applied to improve the treatment of some diseases.
