US scientists developed a cheap graphene sensor sensitivity increased tenfold

According to a recent report from the US "Popular Science" website, scientists at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have recently developed a new sensor that is slim, cheap, and reusable. It is made of graphene foam, and its performance is far higher than the current market. Commercial gas sensors, and, in the near future, scientists can develop more excellent bomb detectors and environmental sensors on this basis.

The new sensor abandons many restrictions that prevent the application and development of sensors. In recent years, scientists have made significant progress in manipulating nanostructures and using them to manufacture detectors with excellent performance to accurately track chemicals in the air. However, they have developed various sensors, although It is good in theory, but not practical.

Current sensor designs are very complex, often relying on a single nanostructure, and scientists need to carefully manipulate and more accurately analyze such structures. In addition, the manufactured sensors are often not reusable, and must work at a specific temperature or pressure. Therefore, scientists have not produced a reliable, cheap, and reusable handheld sensor device.

Now, scientists at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have developed a new sensor the size of a postage stamp using graphene foam. They planted graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms, on a foamed nickel structure, and then removed the foamed nickel, leaving a foam-like graphene structure with unique electrical properties that can be used to perform sensing tasks.

When exposed to air, the particles in the air will be absorbed onto the surface of the foam, and each such particle will affect the graphene foam in a different way, making small changes to its resistance. By passing a current through it and measuring the change in resistance, you can know what particles are attached to the foam. Scientists let a current of about 100 milliamps pass through the foam. It was found that the graphene foam can cause particles to desorb, that is, the particles are automatically peeled off from the sensor to remove these particles, and the sensor can be reused.

Scientists fine-tuned the sensor to detect ammonia (a key component of homemade explosives ammonia nitrate). The graphene foam sensor managed to detect this aggressive particle in 5 to 10 minutes, and the efficiency It is 10 times the best detector on the market. Scientists then used it to detect the toxic gas nitrogen dioxide (which is also released when explosives are decomposed), and the results show that its efficiency is 10 times that of current commercial sensors.

Graphene foam is very easy to handle and easy to operate, and also works well at room temperature. This is a characteristic that scientists are very fond of. This graphene foam sensor allows scientists to quickly make cheaper and more practical handheld transmission Sensing equipment to detect the atmosphere.

Flushable and compostable Baby Wipes are made with materials that will readily break down when they are thrown away, making them less of an environmental problem than conventional options. Some are even made from things like bamboo, which is highly renewable and has many natural benefits like built-in antimicrobial abilities. As with any wipes, you`ll want to look for options that eschew the ingredients already mentioned and just be sure you look for chlorine-free baby wipes, too. 


Our flushable wipe is Eco friendly, 100% biodegradable wipe. We choose this material for our baby wipes, personal hygiene wipe, toilet wipes. Additionally, the formulation of dispersible wipes is improved natural ingredients which are gentle to our skin. They are perfectly for sensitive skin types.


There are many applications can be involved in flushable wet wipe industry. The applications include baby wipes, toilet tissues, feminine hygiene wipe, Incontinence wipes, bathing wipes, cosmetic wipe, Facial Wipes , bathroom Cleaning Wipes, Household Wipes, Medical Wipes , personal wipes, industry wipes, dusting wipes etc. There are no flushable products in some of those applications. It is expected that flushable wipe can enter into those applications in the near future, so for the future market of flushable wipe is promising. When consumers purchase the wipes, there are many factors they need to take into account including convenience, hygiene, performance, price, eco- friendly, allergy problems. Flushable wet wipes can meet those factors in great extent. The nonwoven substrate is made from pure natural plants fibers and wood pulp, both of those materials would not cause skin problems. Compared with wipes made from petroleum based raw material, there is no doubt that flushable material would lead to less allergy problems, let alone eco friendly feature.


We do not only produce raw material for flushable wipe, also we manufacture finished products. Our flushable wipes series includes:
Flushable Baby Wipes
Our flushable baby wipes are specially made for 0-6 month`s baby
The raw material is of pure natural cellulosic fiber and can be discarded into the toilet and sewerage system since it is flushable. The nonwoven paper delivers super soft feeling. No Alcohol or any other chemicals are included in the composition, so the baby`s skin can be protected perfectly.
Flushable toilet wipes
In flushable wipe market,the largest market is adult moist toilet tissue.Our flushable toilet wipe is made of 100% biodegradable Spunlace Nonwoven material. It can disperse easily in the toilet. You can treat it as common toilet roll paper, just discard it into the toilet and sewerage system. It is safe and eco-friendly. With our flushable toilet wipes, your skin would cleaner and cooler since it delivers better cleaning result than common toilet roll paper. The pure natural ingredients can care your skin in your private area. You can use it with roll paper.

Generally, there are three types of packages for flushable wipes products. You can design your package and send us your samples for volume production. In addition, we can send the package and material samples to our clients for reference.In addition, we can offer help in aiding the formulation process. You can define your pure natural ingredients list.
We are the expert of private labeling services of flushable/biodegradable wipes. Nowadays, flushable wet wipes which can disperse easily is favored by more and more end consumers and the businessmen.100% natural products has great market potential since it would produce waste. As a kind of fast consumer goods, wet wipes are one of the most used products in daily life. Wipe is must in your pocket or bag. However, most of the wet wipes are non-flushable/biodegradable version.
