Carbon Nanomaterial Produced by Microwave Exfoliation of Graphite Oxide

摘要

Carbon-based graphene-like material was obtained through microwave stimulated exfoliation of graph-ite oxide (GO). Properties of this material were investigated by multiple techniques including element analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), mass-spectroscopy, infrared (IR) and Raman spectrosco-py, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and broadband dielectric spectroscopy. Specific surface area and volume of microwave exfoliated graphite oxide (MEGO) reached 600 m2/g and 6 cm3/g, respectively. It is shown that during such explosive reduction process the sample emits CO2, CO and H2O and, in some cases, SO2 gases. The resulting reduced material exhibits IR spectra similar to that of graphite and a dc-conductivity of 0.12 S/cm. It is also shown that prolonged storage in ambient conditions leads to elevated oxygen content and decrease of specific surface area of the samples.udWhen you are citing the document, use the following link http://essuir.sumdu.edu.ua/handle/123456789/35118
