To me it looks like a one-atom thick slice through a diamond lattice (guessing a 1,1,1 orientation). If it was formed from pure carbon, it should share many properties with diamonds and be very stable. Silicon and GaAs crystalize in a diamond lattice which is the reason I am aware of the structure, but have not investigated properties of carbon arranged in this form.
I'd guess that there are legit uses for the substance. Graphene Oxide is the part of the vaccines that is worrying. If it is really graphene (pure carbon), it should be difficult for oxygen to interact once the crystal is formed. It is the impurities that matter.
Graphine would be great for an application involving heat or electricity, I don't know the dangers of skin contact though. I mean technically the graphine would want to be in a sheet more than breaking up and being absorbed. But I can see it being possible that during the manufactur some graphine dust could be on its surface.
Concur. I’ve had some very small experience with GO in my lab. You don’t want to breath the dust. It’s a great conductor. I think this application is totally fine.
She’s not ingesting it. She’ll be fine.
