چکیده

Reductive alkylation of three graphite starting materials G(flake), G(powder), and G(spherical) reveals pronounced differences in the obtained covalently functionalized graphene with respect to the degree of functionalization, exfoliation efficiency and product homogeneity, as demonstrated by statistical Raman microscopy (SRM), TGA/MS, IR-spectroscopy and solubility behavior.

The effect of graphite sources on preparation of Photoluminescent graphene nano-sheets for biomedical imaging

Objective(s): Graphene as two-dimensional (2D) materials have attracted wide attention in different fields such as biomedical imaging. Ultra-small graphene nano-sheets (UGNSs) have been designated as low dimensional graphene sheets with lateral dimensions less than few nanometres (≤ 500 nm) in one, two or few layers. Several studies have proven that the process of acidic exfoliation and oxidati...

Evaluating the Effect of Graphite Source and Operating Conditions on the Synthesis of Graphene Oxide

In this research graphene oxide was synthesized by two methods. These methods were achieved by changing the improved Hummers’ and modified Hummers’ methods. Structure of graphene oxide was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images, X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns, Raman spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra. According to SEM image, the thickness of graphen...
