Electric permittivity of reduced graphite oxide

چکیده
The through-thickness electric permittivity (real part) of the solid part (53 vol%) of reduced graphite oxide (RGO) paper (100e300 mm thick, prepared by hydrazine reduction of modified-Hummers-method graphite oxide, GO) is 1130 (50 Hz), which is higher than that of the similarly tested parent GO (915, 50 Hz) and other carbons (31e124, 50 Hz). The high permittivity of RGO is attributed to the defects. Due to the conductivity of RGO, an insulating film between the specimen and an electrical contact is necessary during permittivity measurement using an RLC meter. Without the film, the measured capacitance is too high by 10e11 orders of magnitude, thus resulting in incorrectly high values of the permittivity. The relative permittivity 4 109 (20 Hz) reported by Sarkar et al. (2016) for similarly prepared RGO is therefore incorrect. The solid part of the RGO paper exhibits at 50 Hz in-plane conductivity 31 S/m, through-thickness conductivity 1.17 S/m, through-thickness relative permittivity (imaginary part) 4.2 108, through-thickness dielectric loss angle 90.0 , specific capacitance of the interface with an electrical contact 0.31 mF/m2, and areal resistivity of this interface 0.18 U cm2. The resistivity and specific capacitance of the RGO-contact interface are lower for RGO than GO. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

متن کاملEffect of Aspect Ratio on the Permittivity of Graphite Fiber in Microwave Heating
Microwave (MW) heating has received attention as a new heating source for various industrial processes. Some materials are expected to be a more effective absorber of MW, and graphite is observed as a possible candidate for high-temperature application. We investigated the dependence of the aspect ratio of graphite fibers on both their heating behavior and permittivity under a 2.45 GHz MW elect...

متن کاملPreparation of reduced graphite oxide with high volumetric capacitance in supercapacitors.
High density reduced graphite oxide was prepared via a novel precipitation-assisted method, and the micropore area was found to be above 70% of the total surface area for the as-prepared sample. Electrochemical experiments showed that the as-prepared samples exhibited high volumetric capacitance and excellent cycling stability as an electrode material in supercapacitors.
