Mosquito Resistant Fabric


Experts developed mosquito repellent fabrics from graphene

Graphene is a flexible substance, which is used to make solar cells. One day it will also be used to make foldable phones. Graphene is also very effective in removing mosquitoes.The carbon-based material graphene can also change its behavior.

This research was published in this week's "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences" journal.
The study says that graphene blocks all chemical signals that attract mosquitoes and other insects.
Unfortunately graphene oxide is not so effective when wet, but when used with graphene with low oxygen content (rGO), it prevents mosquito bites in both dry and wet conditions.One of the disadvantages of rGO is that if its tents are built it will not be able to breathe properly.
Quickly graphene will be used in other products such as jackets, battery packs, shoes and more.

Volcanoes [History of Volcanoes]

Portals into  the guts  of  the world  they burned bottomless cauldrons fueled by an ancient wrath bubbling and boiling thousands of miles beneath the surface and just waiting to burst through volcanoes are scattered across the planet about 1,500 active volcanoes can be found across  the planet  though countless others are on the  ocean bottom most volcanoes whether  ashore  or underwater are located where tectonic plates meet  actually  the Ring  of fireside  a path that traces the boundaries between several tectonic plates  round the Pacific Ocean contains about 75% of the planets volcanoes there are several types of volcanoes primarily classified by shape and size major types include stratovolcanoes  which frequently  appear as tall steep mountains shield volcanoes which are flatter and dome shaped calderas which are large depressions in the ground and mid-ocean ridges which are...

Our Planet [Our Solar System]

  Our Solar system is one of over 500 known solar systems in the entire Milky Way galaxy the solar system came into being about 4.5 billion years ago when a cloud of interstellar gas and dust collapsed resulting in a solar nebula a swirling disk of material that collided to form the solar system the solar system is located in the Milky Way's. Orion star cluster only 15% of stars in the galaxy host planetary systems and one of those stars is our own Sun revolving around the Sun are eight planets the planets are divided into two categories based on their composition terrestrial and Jovian terrestrial planets including Mercury Venus Earth and Mars are primarily made of rocky material their surfaces are solid they don't have ring systems they have very few or no moons and they are relatively small the smallest and closest to the Sun is mercury which has the shortest orbit in the solar system at about 3 earth months. Venus is the hottest planet with temperatures of up to 867 deg...

Microsoft has Lost $ 400 Billions

Microsoft has Lost $ 400 Billions Microsoft has lost $ 400 billion by leaving the smartphone market. Bill Gates Speaking to Venture Capital company Village Global, Bill Gates admitted that he had failed to build a standard non-Apple phone platform over Google's. Bill Gates says his biggest mistake is not to build Microsoft's Android-like platform. Bill Gates says if he does that, Google's $ 400 billion will come to Microsoft. Many say it was Steve Ballmer who didn't take it seriously. Steve Ballmer did not take Apple's iPhone seriously, they laughed at it. Steve Ballmer believed that expensive phones without keyboards would not suit business customers. Microsoft then introduced Windows Mobile. This was a smaller version of Windows available for PC. Shortly after the iPhone came, Google released Android. It turns out that people prefer All-Screen OS. Microsoft tried to join the race from Windows Phone 7 in 2010 but has had plenty of time yet. Andro...
