China's graphene achieves low-cost mass production

On December 10th, China's first 30-ton graphene production line, which was co-operated by Tsinghua University Shenzhen Graduate School and Inner Mongolia Dasheng New Material Company, was completed and put into operation in the Graphite Industrial Park of Xinghe County, Wulanchabu City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Graphene has a capacity of 30 kg.

China’s graphene new materials scientist and president of Tsinghua University’s Shenzhen Graduate School, Kang Feiyu, said at the launching ceremony that low-cost mass production of graphene was realized in China. Tsinghua University Shenzhen Graduate School has always been in the leading position in the research and development of graphene production. In order to promote the conversion and application of large scale natural graphite, Tsinghua University Shenzhen Graduate School supported Dasheng Graphite in 2014 to establish Inner Mongolia Natural Graphite Application Technology Research Institute to fully work on graphite. Alkene "macropreparation" technology level.

As a new type of nanomaterial that is the thinnest, strongest, and most conductive and thermally conductive, the graphene is called “black gold” and is the “king of new materials”. Low-cost mass production of graphene is a key link in the development of the graphene industry. In recent years, the state has invested heavily in major research institutes. Graphene can only be widely used in new materials after low-cost mass production. The production of this line will contribute to the industrialization of graphene in China. One is to continue to reduce costs and reduce it to 10 yuan per gram. Among them, the second is the rapid and widespread application in the downstream industrial chain.
