The graphene I produce has flake dimensions ranging from 0.25 to 50 micron but to make 50mm flakes would require an altogether different approach to manufacturing. That would need to be a bottom up method rather than a top down one.and the last I checked, 1x sheet of 50x50mm single layer graphene is going to cost somewhere in the region of about £500.
So for now, I'd have to conclude that graphene in powder form may not have the ability to improve carbon fiber manufacturing enough to make it worth while but then this was not the sole composite that sprung to mind either, there are others, particularly composites requiring high temperatures such as ceramics.
As for what I can do right now, is to use it in thermal compounds and electronics.
