General description

Graphite is a versatile material with high thermal conductivity, excellent electrical conductivity, and remarkable lubricating capabilities. In the electronics sector, graphite is utilized in batteries and fuel cells due to its ability to enhance performance and energy efficiency. Additionally, the automotive industry graphite is used in brake linings and lubricants, while the aerospace sector benefits from its lightweight and high-temperature resistance.

Application


  • Synthetic opioid analgesic: MethaDoneserves as a synthetic opioid analgesic in clinical settings, offering pain relief options for patients who are resistant to other opioids. Studies examine its analgesic properties and side effects to enhance patient safety and comfort (Hughes et al., 2024).

  • In vitro pharmacological studies: In vitro studies utilize methaDonesolutions to investigate its pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics. These studies help determine how methaDoneinteracts with various biological systems, influencing future drug design and therapy approaches (Degani et al., 2023).

  • Drug metabolism research: MethaDoneis used in research to study drug metabolism, particularly how it is processed within the body. This research is vital for understanding drug interactions, effects on liver enzymes, and implications for long-term treatment efficacy (Hu et al., 2023).
