Graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice, has attracted widespread attention due to its exceptional electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties. The preparation of thin-layer graphene is a key step for applications in electronics, energy storage, sensors, and composite materials. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the main graphene preparation methods, their processes, characteristics, and practical considerations.

In scientific research and industrial applications, fibrous materials such as carbon fibers, wood fibers, chemical fibers, and hair often need to be ground into fine powders. This is essential for micro-element analysis and for modifying these fibers into composite materials. Achieving a uniform, contaminant-free powder requires careful selection of equipment, grinding media, and process parameters.
This guide explains how the most commonly used lab mills work, which powder types each is best suited for, and practical tradeoffs lab researchers should consider.
At ZYLAB, we take pride in supporting academic excellence by delivering high-quality laboratory equipment to leading universities around the world. We are pleased to announce the successful delivery of a planetary ball mill to the prestigious University of Southampton in the United Kingdom.
A planetary ball mill is an essential device for mixing, fine grinding, sample preparation, dispersion of nano-materials, development of new products, and small-scale production of high-tech materials.
