Game changing graphene-reinforced concrete is stronger and better for the planet

Add concrete to the list of things graphene can improve. Scientists at the University of Exeter's Center for Graphene Science developed a new technique to incorporate graphene in concrete production with the help of nanoengineering technology — and the resulting material was not only over twice as strong as concretes we have today, but "drastically reduced the carbon footprint of conventional concrete production methods."
