High yield preparation of macroscopic graphene oxide membranes.

چکیده
Graphene oxide membranes up to 2000 microm(2) in size can be synthesized with 90% yield in bulk quantities through a microwave-assisted chemical method. Membranes are readily visualized on an oxidized silicon substrate, which enables efficient fabrication of electronic devices and sensors. Field effect transistors made of the membrane show ambipolar behavior, and their conductivity is significantly higher than previously reported values.

Preparation and Characterization of an Antifouling Polyethersulfone Nanofiltration Membrane Blended with Graphene Oxide/Ag Nanoparticles
Graphene oxide/Ag nanoparticles (Ag/GO) was prepared and employed to synthesize antifouling polyethersulfone (PES) mixed matrix membranes. The performance of the membranes was evaluated in terms of flux, hydrophilicity and anti-biofouling properties. With increment of the Ag/GO from 0 to 0.1 wt.%, the pure water flux increased from 24.7 up to 54.1 kg/m2 h. The flux recovery ratio (FRR) of the m...

متن کاملThin film nanocomposite forward osmosis membrane prepared by graphene oxide embedded PSf substrate
One of the limiting factors in good performance of forward osmosis (FO) membranes is the internal concentration polarization (ICP). To reduce ICP, thin film nanocomposite forward osmosis (TFN-FO) membranes were fabricated by adding different amounts of graphene oxide (GO) nanoplates (0-1 wt. %) to polymer matrix of polysulfone (PSf) substrate. The prepared nanocomposite membranes exhibited both...
