研究目的
Proposing a new 3D functionalization of graphene obtained from commercial graphite by liquid phase exfoliation in several simply synthesis stages by means of hard template method.
研究成果
Non-oxidative exfoliation methods (liquid-phase and microwave) yield pristine graphene flakes suitable for 3D structuring using templates and carbon glues, offering high surface area and conductivity. Oxidative methods are more complex and reduce electrical properties but are scalable. All methods show promise for low-cost, large-scale production of porous 3D graphene for applications like electrodes.
研究不足
The review highlights challenges such as the time-consuming and expensive nature of some methods, issues with scalability, purity, yield, and the stability of exfoliated materials. Oxidative methods reduce electrical conductivity, and there is a lack of detailed information on durability and conservation of structural parameters.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The paper reviews various exfoliation methods (mechanical, electro-exfoliation, liquid-phase non-oxidative, graphite oxide reduction, microwave) and discusses the hard template method for 3D structuring. It involves using templates like Na2CO3 or CaCO3 to create pores, followed by carbonization and etching.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Commercial graphite or graphene powder is used as the precursor. Data from literature and previous studies are cited.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment includes sonication devices, electrochemical setups, microwaves; materials include solvents (e.g., NMP, DMF), surfactants, templates (Na2CO3, CaCO3), furfuryl alcohol, acids (HCl).
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
For non-oxidative liquid-phase exfoliation, graphite is dispersed in a solvent (e.g., NMP) with surfactant, sonicated, mixed with template, dried, wetted with furfuryl alcohol and catalyst, polymerized, carbonized under nitrogen, and etched with HCl.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Properties like specific surface area (BET method), pore structure, and elemental composition are analyzed, with references to techniques such as HR-TEM.
