Scientists in Singapore have discovered the potential of a readily available material that could be used to replace expensive graphene analogues in a wide range of electrochemical processes.

Graphene consists of single layers of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice structure. This structure provides unique properties, making graphene an important material for sensing and electrochemical applications.
