Impact of probe sonication and sulfuric acid pretreatment on graphene exfoliation in water.

Graphene is a 2D material with promising commercial applications due to its physicochemical properties. Producing high-quality graphene economically and at large scales is currently of great interest and demand. Here, the potential of producing high-quality graphene at a large scale via water-phase exfoliation methods is investigated.

Synthesis of holey graphene for advanced nanotechnological applications.
