Plasma gun sprays out high-quality graphene ?..

I didn t hear of this application yet
so ...

Anup Kumar Keshri, a materials scientist and engineer at the Indian Institute of Technology Patna, and his team made graphene using plasma spraying, a well-established technique for depositing metal or ceramic coatings. The method involves melting powdered coating materials in a jet of plasma—a high-temperature gas of ions—and spraying them on a surface.

The engineers loaded graphite particles in a plasma spray gun. The thermal shock from the 3,000 K temperature and the turbulent eddies in the resulting plume rip apart the graphite into graphene flakes. The researchers collected the sprayed powder, put it in deionized water, and spun it in a centrifuge to remove unexfoliated clumps of graphite.

Something to do in their spare time:)

  "The current cost of manufacturing silicon nanopowders is very high and it has led Apollon and Pragma to use a less efficient, but more economical, environmentally friendly chemical powder to begin the commercialization of their system. However, the use of silicon nanopowders manufactured by HPQ's PUREVAPTM Nano Silicon Reactor could increase the hydrogen generation potential of ...more
