Same line wherever you look.

'In 1962 Boehm and colleagues had published details of their work on graphite flakes, which were single or multilayer.'

Bullshit selective quoting to deliberately mislead ^

Have the full quote;
 
'Later on, in 1962, Boehm and colleagues had published details of their work on graphite flakes. They isolated and identified single graphene sheets by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction in 1961.'

And that's from the link you were given before https://www.graphene-info.com/graphene-history-controversy-and-nobel-prize

The link that's not a link? That one?

You posted the same link as I did.

Look at and study ALL of the link.

It was not graphite. Nick basically I think you should give it up, your lack of comprehension is scary.

You've tried that analogy before and it didn't work then. The stuff in 1962 was GRAPHITE, not a single layer of Carbon atoms. Same as Diamonds where around then, another allotrope of Carbon but still not Graphene.

I say again you do know that Haley's comet was known about yonks before it was called Haley's comet or even a 'comet'

Quite. 

[papasmurf]

You stated clearly above that Graphene was known about in 1962, you used the word Graphene, which wasn't used until the 80's. Graphene wasn't invented until 2004, the stuff in 1962 was thin sheets of GRAPHITE and not a single layer of Carbon atoms.

FFS sake Nick Graphene was known about in 1962, it merely was not named that. (The same applies to many other substances until they could be made in quantity and commercially exploited.)

Quite, I am wondering about Nick, especially no one has claimed the name was in use in 1962, the point you seem determined to not let through your skull is the material we now know as graphene was being described from 1962

Nick I posted the link for that. In fact [highlight]graphene was known about as far back as 1962[/highlight], but producing it and finding  a use for it was a long time afterwards. Materials have been an interest of mine since my childhood. 
That you have frankly demonstrated you know next to bugger all about graphene is obvious

Not if you read your post again especially where you told me ' the point you seem determined to not let through your skull is the material we now know as graphene was being described from 1962'

I am agreeing with you.

Do not tell people to correct things on this forum, if you see an issue you point it out, you are not a MOD. Thank you.

Eh?  What's got into you now?  

Alright then is this OK?  Papasmurf you have completely fucked up that quote and it would be good if you edited it please

[Nick]

You've fucked up the quoting Papasmurf, please correct it
