I have been after duplicating these same video from 7 years ago for a while now, and thanks to this I know I am on the right track for most of it. Since I do not need to clean out the soap agent, I will be seeing if I can get this to do similar levels with LDPE shreds. I can get shopping bags all day long, so if I can turn them into a high strength material, I can make all kinds of things with it.

Thank you Rob for once again showing us how outside the box thinking can solve some incredibly difficult problems! The moment I saw you mention the uses for graphene powder, it made me think of ROMAN concrete. I was going to ask, now that we know the exact formula for the toughest long lasting Ancient Roman Concrete, would it be possible to reinforce the ancient Roman Formula with graphene powder, for Concrete that can be put to work for DIY dams or seaside projects? It would be self sealing and could withstand the fall of time itself.

Wow! I always saw casein mixed with formaldehyde to make plastic. This is a much better option. Great video Rob!

You Just Keep Getting More INCREDIBLE

Casein is pretty useful on its own. When combined with 4+ layers of linen it makes Linothorax armour as used by the ancient Greeks. Note linen or hemp has to be used rather than cotton because of the microstructure of the vegetable fibres. So-o-o- how would your casein graphene perform?

People have made reproduction linothorax armour and tested with arrows, blades etc, it was used for a long time, it is pretty effective, needs a lot of linen though, but at a time when metal was scarce it did a great job, plus it wasn't as hot as wearing metal in a hot Mediterranean climate, truth is we don't know how many layers, or how it was made, if glues or leather were also part of the layers or if casein was part of the process.

That’s amazing thank you for sharing I had no idea, I was already thinking of making a composite plate from hemp, using 20-40 layer high density hemp weave canvas.. being that hemp has such amazing properties, it is already being held up to Kevlar as a viable replacement but I had no clue this was already done in ancient times, I saw hemp soft armor from ancient Asia but never heard of this ancient composite plate. Also want to look into weaves that spread more energy in more directions, there’s a standard plain weave (2 directions) but there’s also triaxial and quadraxial weaves (3 & 4 directions) which is more costly but drastically stronger with any material, they make triaxial carbon fiber for high strength parts in aerospace and performance racing So my new idea is a bio plastic hemp composite ballistic plate, triaxial weave or quadraxial, every other layer cut tilted to 5 degrees, bioplastic impregnated with graphine powder & microfibers for strength as well as ammonium polyphosphate for flame resistance

I was just amazed to see the video open with stock footage of my own neighborhood!

They did similar thing on Tech Ingredients channel here on YT a few weeks ago where they made pure graphene then laced some epoxy resin with it. As in this video it was astonishing the small amount they added made a big increase in the material strength under load. Very interesting subject thanks.

Awesome work man!!!!!!!! I had almost forgot you did a video about this 7 years ago. What you have made is incredible!

I remember when you were talking about graphene infused plastic years ago and I'm glad to see another update! I'm curious about the strength testing, specifically I'd be interested in seeing the results, what method was used, which measure of strength shows that it's stronger than steel, etc, and I'm curious as to how much the graphene contributed to that strength. I did a quick search that implied that casein is normally on the order of 100 times lower ultimate tensile strength than steel, so if the graphene improved the strength by a factor of 100 or more then that's huge... Thanks again for sharing all the work you do and I'm looking forward to more updates!

I am wondering about increasing strength of epoxy resin for coating plywood in boat building. I think you mentioned adding to resin in a previous video. Anyway, as you probably know there are lots of beaches where coming ashore is not exactly like a tropical beach of pure white soft sand. A lot of places in Florida and the Gulf coast of Texas are sharp oyster or reef zones east to damage a boat’s hull. If this stuff can stop a bullet it can sure add protection to a hull moving at less than 10 knots coming aground. I’m thinking add to epoxy on rudder blade, centreboard and centreboard case. Also wondering about UV aspects. Epoxy has zero UV protection and needs paint or UV varnish out in the sun. I’m in Australia : it’s almost winter but I still need a hat and sunglasses outside during the day. Anyway just amazing videos.

Quite remarkable. Well done!

Beautiful, thank you! I knew graphene would help, but a strength-to-weight at 10x metal is astounding!

In the middle ages leather shields were impregnated with hide glue because that made an extremely though composite, they are incredibly strong and though.

Good heavens the durability on that thing genuinely scares me. Does this stuff decay over time? If not, this stuff could probably be used in some long term applications like buildings. Very cool!

1:11 The youtube tutorial song killed be, thank you for existing, never change !

The problem for us DIY'ers is the combo of heating + pressure. It takes expensive equipment to do this, and making such equipment is not easy either. I suppose you could use all metal vices to push down on it and heat it in an oven or the like, but I don't think that would do near as good as the equipment in the video, and especially not compared to what industry can use/do. With that said, this material would be very interesting to combine with either carbon fiber, basalt fiber, and/or S2 fiberglass cloths and epoxy composite outer, since I'm pretty sure the casein is not fully waterproof. Encasing the bioplastic composite in an epoxy-fiber composite, should make it even stronger, tougher, and completely waterproof. The bioplastic composite would be an *excellent* bulking agent since casein is pretty low density. Would love to see composite blends between the above for all kinds of things from car panels, skateboards, etc, etc.

Excellent and you gave a shout-out to Tech ingredients another must watch channel.

Is that basically dried grated cheese with grapevine added... when I have bits of cheese stuck to the pot after making it, it goes incredible hard, so I must remember to wash early. :)

Milk does grow strong bones! That’s amazing! I’m curious to know what strength parameters were tested? Compression? Tension? Shear?

I feel like I know all I need to live through the apocalypse by watching your vids. Thanks!

Mold parts of a normally be made of metal. For cars such as an engine block massively rerducing weight. An incredible strength!

Neat. Milk proteins to make the graphene and milk proteins to make the plastic.

So cool! It's Strange how everything's starting to fall in the place we spent years in this community researching. Graffiti and how to make it and all the sudden. It was like a key was found to the lock and now we can move forward with very interesting projects. The bioplast guy agree has great potential for body armor I will be giving this a go!!

Today I learned that can make laser with "dye" too, growable microbial dye, if we can move to custom microchip that would be complete!

So basically graphene infused dried cheese, very cool.

I've seen people create home made extrudes for recycling failed 3D prints and print supports, I wonder if you could make a bio-plastic 3D printer filament with this? That might give rise to stronger 3D printed parts (could be useful for wind turbine blades.

interesting that the process for this plastic is not unlike teflon, where they powder it and press it in a mold while heating in the pressurized mold to get the shape. Seems like making friends with a shop that does machining of plastics could prove useful as you could take the chips and shavings and then grind them up to make the powder that graphene is added to before pressing to get that shape out of any plastic similar, (especially the ones that cant be just heated and flow like we do with 3D printer filament plastics)

Can you do something more quantitative, like comparing it to a similar sized piece of mild steel in an hydraulic press or sheer tester?

Gear molds or actual gears made from graphene.

Thank you for the video!

Just a thought someone may be able to explore. Some bio-plastics shrink as they cure. A particular mix of concrete that allowed for a graphene incorporated plastic to cure could maybe be pretensioned by default? Just a thought

@Yezpahr

Жыл бұрын

I honestly don't think shrinkage is a problem with this specific mix and manufacturing process... It's put under a 20 ton press and is already highly compressed due to that. If we put it in a concrete mold that has the 20 ton force needed to mold, then you still need 20 tons of force to keep the mold in place and get all the product inside. I'm more curious what happens to the conductivity, can this perform like metal in more than one way? What if we press a wire out of this, would it be floppy or would it be brittle, ready to snap when you look at it wrong?

@@Yezpahr Sincerely, either I'm not understanding you, or you're not understanding me? The shrinkage in the case would not be a problem, rather a problem turned into a benefit. It wouldn't have to be this plastic, but any that the graphene would bond to. If part of the curing process would utilize the solvent shed by the plastic curing, maybe, only maybe, it would be possible to have a lattice reinforced concrete. There are many videos on pre and post tensioned concrete and it's benefits, if that is where we're not seeing each other. Kinda a Rupert drop, but a block, and not largely the surface.

That's one more giant leap for mankind !

Looks like I missed this video 6 days ago. Happy to watch it now though . The reminiscent sound quality of 6 years ago was also apparent . I recall the other plastic enhancement of some years back .

I feel so inspired just seeing this, but with an eye to the possible future, and a view of the mistakes we have made in the past; if we had invested in this tech all along, would we have a fix for getting rid of things we had made from it if they were past their most useful? We have the huge problem of plastic waste today because we never thought it through properly. Can we do better this time? I do hope so. This stuff seems so strong, I am not sure how we could go about disposal if needed. Thanks for the insight of course, I am not trying to put any kind of downer on this concept, quite the opposite, just trying to have the answers before others try and spin it away because they have a vested interest in the old polluting petrochem style that is plaguing us right now. Be well. 😉

Could you cast the windmill parts with it? I wasn't sure if that would work because of the press. Thinking along the lines of using the 3d printed parts, maybe printed out of pva fiber as a positive mould to make the negative mould.

Crazy awesome. So we take some milk, boil it, add it to vinegar, separate out the casein. Then mix in graphite with the leftovers and liquidise. Would the vinegar affect the ability of the proteins keeping the graphite granules separated? What size centrifuge would be needed to separate the graphene? Could it just be boiled off? So many questions. It would be worth a few hours of my time trying to find the answers. Thanks!!
