In 2004, two researchers at the University of Manchester isolated graphene for the very first time, using—believe it or not—a chunk of graphite and a roll of adhesive tape. Graphene is a ...

Lightning storms turn methane into soot (carbon) which as it falls hardens into chunks of graphite and then diamond. These diamond "hail stones" eventually melt into a liquid sea in the planets ...

As Skunk Bear’s Adam Cole explains, the farmers sound discovered that chunks of graphite allowed them to mark their sheep, separating one flock from another on the rainy English hills.

The graphite market trends and forecast (2025-2035) indicate that demand for high-purity graphite in electronics and spherical graphite for lithium-ion battery applications is set to rise.
