As a widely-recognized new material, scientists are currently developing the potential of using graphene to increase metal corrosion resistance. The team used a technique called "chemical vapor deposition" to attach graphene to copper at 800-900 degrees Celsius and test it in salt water. “Our results are also one of the best improvements reported so far.” The author of the paper, Manaka Macgamm, said: “The corrosion resistance is nearly 100 times higher than that of untreated copper. Other research possibilities Only five or six times or more. This is a considerable leap forward."

The researcher's principal experimenter, Parama Banaghi, said that graphene has excellent mechanical properties and high strength. Polymer coatings commonly used on metals are easily scratched, reducing their protective properties. Although the graphene coating is neither visible nor intangible in appearance, it is more resistant to damage. "I called it 'magical material'."
