Unfortunately, I suspect The Astronavigator's initial graphene mod to be overly optimistic. Other sources I've read have given Graphene a melting point of 4510k. Isn't graphene turn into graphite at 1700K??  Word-of-Mouth from other users is a shit source, unless the other user is a known expert in the relevant field (in this case, high temperature materials science). Of course, most people are too lazy to do some basic fucking research before opening their mouths - <this> is how I found my source. Literally first link. |

I heard diamond decomposed into graphite at about 1700k from atomic rockets, sorrey if I spread false info

ok, that's what I get for not checking my sources

I'm pretty lost on it, personally. How are you interpreting it? |

Does anyone know the thermo-electric sensitivity of carbon nanotubes? They might make a great thermocouple with graphene (due to their high melting point and strength).

I'm pretty sure that it wouldn't be all that different from Graphene, because both are a form of carbon that is nano-structured. |

Here are some more encapsulated fuel and control rod materials, although they fall under the same sort of category that Graphene does. Finally remembered to add these in! My apologies. |
