Graphene is a Nobel Prize winning material. Check out our latest episode with Gaute Juliussen, CEO of @toraphene, on how they developed a green way to manufacture graphene and include it in compostable, biodegradable, and recycled plastic bags, cups, and more. Gaute discusses how graphene and nanotech help make natural materials more competitive with virgin fossil fuel plastics in packaging. We discuss the difference between biodegradable and compostable materials, what to look out for, and what we all can do to make more informed sustainable choices at the grocery store. ——————————#graphene #nanotechnology #packaging #plastic #plasticfree #sustainability #compostable #biodegradable #barrierproperties #fossilfuelfree ———————————————Graphene photo credit: https://penntoday.upenn.edu/news/atomically-thin-twisted-graphene-has-unique-properties
