The complementary properties of graphene and glass mean that they go together hand in hand excellently. The development of such fusions continues to be especially beneficial to the automotive industry.
Graphene is a wonder material that is often promoted for its novel physical properties. This material, which consists of a single layer of carbon atoms in a two-dimensional hexagonal lattice arrangement, has mechanical strength, electric and thermal conductivity, and flexibility, thus making it an important component in the development of electronics. But this remarkable material has another, often less touted property, that, when coupled with these aspects, makes it useful for the development of glass and window films �
