Graphene has been crowned the "king of new materials" since its discovery. Along with the market also appeared a lot of "graphene underwear", merchants claimed that this kind of underwear has antibacterial, antibacterial effect, and even "anti-fatigue" "to prevent ultraviolet rays" and so on the ability.
Experts pointed out that graphene is a single layer of carbon atoms composed of planar structure, a millimeter of thickness of about 3 million layers, it has a very special properties, such as electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and its special properties are only in a single layer of the best performance. Graphene from the form of a few layers, multi-layer, single-layer graphene preparation cost is very high, used in industry is very little, multi-layer graphene cost is relatively low. From the business publicity point of view, with graphene to do clothes closer to adding a small amount of graphene powder in conventional chemical fiber clothing, rather than pure graphene. Industry insiders estimate that the price of making a pair of underwear with a completely single layer of pure graphene would be at least several hundred million dollars.
Scientific experiments have confirmed that the graphene material infrared emissivity, absorption of ultraviolet radiation is stronger, there is a certain antibacterial, antimicrobial experimental effect. If you really add graphene material in the clothing, may produce a certain antibacterial effect, but the market to buy graphene underwear ingredients in the end, the average person is difficult to judge.
