Making "green" graphene from gum trees could cut production costs by 200 times

Australian scientists have used extracts from gum trees to produce graphene in a cheaper, safer way

The wonderful potential of graphene has been well covered on our pages, with its supreme strength, ultra-thin profile, and excellent electrical and thermal conductivity opening up all kinds of possibilities. One thing missing from all of this is a cost-effective way to produce it, but a team of researchers now believe they may have discovered a key to this hiding in the bark of Australian eucalyptus trees.
