Graphene is 100% carbon, but only 1 atom thick. Lots of hype about what it could be used for, but I am not sure it is currently used for anything outside of a research lab.

Sorry Les, I meant Graphogen. Autocorrect got me! I have an assembly lubricant that I used on my motorcycle engine - I’ll be using it when I reassemble my Twink.
Andy, off topic but graphene does get used outside of a lab. There are several startups trying to make a go of it, eg Versarien who are near me (coincidence). They sell it as an additive for tyre compounds, amongst other things. However, despite holding over 130 patents, their share price is 3p. So I guess graphene isn’t ready to hit the big time yet.
