Graphene oxide: efficiency of reducing agents

Efficiency Assesment of Chitosan Graphene Oxide Composite in Aniline Removal from Aqueous Solutions

Background: Aniline is a toxic compound characterized by high solubility in water (3.5 percent; 35000 mg/l) leading to increased presence risk of aniline in wastewater. The presence of this compound in the blood causes the formation of met hemoglobin and prevent oxygen uptake and plays a key role in chemical asphyxiation, moreover, it has been thought as a carcinogenic risk factor to humans...

Large flake graphene oxide fibers with unconventional 100% knot efficiency and highly aligned small flake graphene oxide fibers.

Two types of graphene oxide fibers are spun from high concentration aqueous dopes. Fibers extruded from large flake graphene oxide dope without drawing show unconventional 100% knot efficiency. Fibers spun from small sized graphene oxide dope with stable and continuous drawing yield in good intrinsic alignment with a record high tensile modulus of 47 GPa.

Facile hydrothermal preparation of graphene oxide nanoribbons from graphene oxide.

Graphene oxide nanoribbons (GONR) with regular edges have been prepared by a facile hydrothermal method. The relatively high yield and convenient preparation of GONR eventually make graphene nanoribbons (GNR) accessible in the field of composite materials where bulk quantities of nanoribbons are required.

Carbon black-intercalated reduced graphene oxide electrode with graphene oxide separator for high-performance supercapacitor

We present a general study on a high performance supercapacitor based on intercalated reduced graphene oxide with carbon black nanoparticles. Graphene oxide sheets were synthesized by oxidation and exfoliation of natural graphite and were reduced using hydroiodic acid in the presence of carbon black nanoparticles. Graphene paper was fabricated by one-step procedure via simultaneous reducing and...
