Fizzy soda water could be key to clean manufacture of flat wonder material: Graphene 08/23/2017 02:35 PM EDT As graphene's popularity grows as an advanced "wonder" material, the speed and quality at which it can be manufactured will be paramount. With that in mind, the research group of SungWoo Nam, assistant professor of mechanical science and engineering at the University of Illinois College of Engineering, has developed a cleaner and more environmentally friendly method to isolate graphene using carbon dioxide in the form of carbonic acid as the electrolyte solution.
