STUDY OF MANUFACTURING METHODS, INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS AND SCOPE OF RESEARCH OF GRAPHENE

Graphene, a single atomic layer of carbon atoms arranged in a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice, has emerged as one of the most revolutionary materials of modern science. Its exceptional electrical conductivity, mechanical strength, flexibility, and optical transparency have driven research across multiple disciplines. This paper provides a detailed overview of the major graphene manufacturing methods, highlights its structural significance, and explores its broad industrial applications. A comparative analysis of synthesis techniques, their scalability, and potential integration into industrial systems is discussed. Furthermore, the paper emphasizes the expanding scope of graphene research, with a focus on the Indian and global innovation ecosystem driving graphene-based technologies.
