چکیده

Graphene oxide (GO) provides a potential route to large quantities of graphene, is cheap to make in bulk and easy to process.[1, 2] It is also a starting point for further functionalisation to create chemically modified graphenes (CMGs) e.g. for use in composites, light-harvesting, or as sensors. Understanding the chemical and physical structure of GO is a necessary step towards its controllable functionalisation for CMGs and potential complete reduction back to graphene.

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...

Purified dispersions of graphene in a nonpolar solvent via solvothermal reduction of graphene oxide.

It is demonstrated that oxidative debris can be separated and largely removed during the surfactant assisted phase transfer of graphene oxide from a water/ethanol mixture to dichlorobenzene. The new procedure described provides a facile method to obtain monolayer dispersed graphene sheets in a nonpolar solvent via solvothermal reduction of graphene oxide accompanied by an effective purification...

Synthesis and Characterization of Graphene Oxide Nano-Sheets for Effective Removal of Copper Phthalocyanine from Aqueous Media

Graphene Oxide (GO) nano sheets was synthesized from graphite by Hummers method. The nature and morphology of the GO were characterized using FT-IR, UV-Vis, SEM and XRD analysis. Batch sorption experiments were carried out to remove copper (ii) phthalocyanine-tetrasulfonic acid tetrasodium salt [Cu(tsPc)-4.4Na+] from its aqueous solutions using GO as an adsorbent. Experime...
