Description
The researchers Henar Alcalde, Jesus de la Fuente, Bart Kamp and Amaia Zurutuza have published an article "Market Uptake Potencial of Graphene as a Disruptive Material" in the journal titled "Emerging Graphene-Based Electronic & Photonic Devices, Circuits, and Systems".
The unique properties of graphene render it with the potential to bring about radical changes to product portfolios and product functionalities in numerous industries and markets. In this paper, a number of product and technological applications are reviewed where graphene may offer competitive advantage over incumbent materials. Also, its overall potential for market uptake is assessed. Afterwards, the paper addresses a number of variables that exert an influence on the eventual uptake of graphene for commercial applications. Finally, the paper reviews two measures that can be indicative for the potential and the speed with which an industrial uptake of graphene can become a reality.
