5 things you didn’t know about...conductive graphene inks

1. They have a high concentration of graphene flakes – up to 100g per litre.

2. They are made in a microfluidisation process, during which graphene flakes are broken off graphite using ultra-high shear forces.

3. 100% of the starting graphite material is converted into useable graphene flakes.

4. Carboxymethylcellulose sodium salt is used to stabilise the material, without a need for centrifugation.

5. Applications include large-scale screen-printing, flexible electronics, such as transistors and photovoltaic cells, and potential future uses in food packaging.

Reading rules

Russian is spoken not in the way it is written. With vowels stress means a lot. There are two tricky vowels: О and Е. If these are stressed in a word, they are О and E, that’s ok. But if they are not stressed, they turn into А and И respectively. The word “велосипЕд” (a bicycle) should be pronounced as “виласипет”. The first Е is not stressed, O is also not stressed, the second E is stressed and it’s still E and about Д down below.

Some consonants have pairs. A deaf one and a ring one. They are Т-Д, К-Г, Ш-Ж, П-Б, Ф-В, С-З. If a ring sound is in the ending of a word, it is pronounced as its deaf pair. In a word “велосипед” Д is the last letter of a word, that’s why it turns into T in speaking. If a ring consonant stands before a deaf consonant, it also turns into its deaf pair. “лОжка” (a spoon) is pronounced as “лошка” because К is a deaf sound. So Ж becomes Ш.

If a deaf consonant is in a position before a ring consonant, it also becomes ring. “ПрОсьба” (a request) sounds like “прозьба”. Б is ring and С becomes З. “C другом” (with a friend) also sounds like “Здругом” as C is deaf and Д is ring, so C turns into З.

give me one day. give me one day, and i’ll tell you all the interesting conspiracy theories, like the phantom time theory, which states that the dark ages didn’t happen and the year is actually 1719. i’m not crazy, and i don’t believe in them, but i think they’re the most interesting thing. give me one day, and i can fill your head with every theory we have about multiple universes, about the giant perpetual storm on jupiter, how volcanoes were essential to life, how the moon was created, and a step by step walk through of the seconds following the big bang. give me one day, and i’ll drive you to the best ice cream shop in the cutest little area that barely counts as a town. give me one day, and i’ll show you the quote i jumped the fence onto the turf at my old high school to write on the stands, the old oak i love and a map of the stars that i look up at all the nights i don’t sleep. and i know that i keep talking about space, but all i know about is the universe and i never learned how to make small talk. now i know that theories and the universe aren’t everyone’s forte, and maybe you’re lactose intolerant, and maybe you hate quotes and find trees boring. give me one day. and if at the end of it you don’t Love me, i’ll let you go.
