Electrolyte–Plasma Cathodic Exfoliation of Graphite
摘要
Abstract
A technology was developed for cathodic electrochemical exfoliation of graphite by a plasma discharge at a DC voltage of 200 V in an aqueous solution of various electrolytes. Cathodic electrochemical exfoliation of graphite gave a good account of itself as a promising environmentally friendly industrial method for producing nanographite with subsequent grinding by ultrasound into few-layer graphene (FLG). Cathodic exfoliation allows selective doping of nanographite with oxygen atoms.
