Graphene’s unique structure, only one atom thick, means that each of its carbon atoms is exposed to the environment and, in turn, to the hydrogen gas. Graphene has one of the highest surface area-per-unit masses in nature, far superior to even carbon nanotubes and fullerenes. Low density. Favorable surface chemistry.
