    Short Description: Solid. conducts slowly in a block, but instantly if 1 pixel thick.

    Category: solids

    Melting Point: EDIT: 3500 K

    Boiling Point: none

    Pressure Point: none

    Flammable when at temperatures between 3000 and 3500 degrees Kelvin

     

    Interactions/reactions: Formed when COAL is heated to 3000K and rapidly cooled by contact with CFLM. [hopefully won't break any saves]. However, GRPH has very different properties depending on whether it is in a block or in a line [can be detected by the number of pixels of GRPH in a 3*3 grid around the pixel, if number is greater than or equal to 3 will conduct as a block, otherwise behaves as a line (graphene)]

    Behaviour as a Block of Graphite:

    When sparked, will conduct electricity as slowly as water does, but allowing sparks to travel along it as closely spaced as they are in METL. Will conduct to all other conductors except INWR. If graphite is decorated, any powders or liquids touching the surface will pick up the decoration colour. (solids are immune). Transparent to neutrons, but will slow them down. Will override BIZR's colour if the two collide.

    Behaviour as Graphene:

    Graphene is very special indeed. Graphene will conduct instantly when used in electronics, however it cannot be used for junctions as it would take on the behaviour of the block of graphite, so it can only be used as a set of destroyable control wires. Graphene can also be used as an XOR gate: it will only pass SPRK to a conductor if it recieves a spark from either PSCN or NSCN, but not both at the same time. 

     

    Uses:

     

      Bomb shielding, however it will not be too overpowered as it is flammable once you get to high temperatures.
      logic gates
      breakable INST
      fusion container
      use for cflm
      "control rods" in plutonium reactors
      paint factories, maybe ever printers 0_0
      batteries
      variable-delay PSTN potentiometers

    I remember a thread like this... Graphite GRPH

    Broken Graphite  BGRP sounds good.

    I did graphite before. This is much, much more detailed and better.

    Support!

    It's a splended idea!

     Yours was lacking something was less intresting.

     No, graphene is the name given to a 1 atom-thick layer of graphite. Box-Poorsoft meant graphene

    uhhhh a bit op, what is its real melting temp? does it even have 1?

    okay fixed to be realistic i.e. not as overpowered as something with a melting point of 5727°C would be
