AbstractThe broader impact of this I-Corps project is the development of carbon-based electronic materials with graphite-like structure derived from consumer plastic. Graphite is listed as a critical material by the U.S. government as it plays a key role in various energy technologies. However, both the mining and synthetic production of graphite consume significant amounts of energy, and large-scale mining is confined to relatively few locations. Synthetic graphite manufacturing is a major source of gr
