Industrial-Grade Graphene Oxide

CAS-No.: 7782-42-5

Three-dimensional graphene oxide is the starting point for a number of exciting nanomaterials produced by ACS Material. Graphite is a 3-D allotrope of carbon composed of millions of layers of graphene; conversely, graphene can be defined as a single layer of carbon atoms exfoliated from graphite. Graphene oxide is a bit different; when graphene is treated with strong oxidizers, sulfuric acid for example, the oxidizers react with the graphene by removing an electron. This reaction, where the reactant is oxidized and the oxidizing agent is reduced, is called a redox reaction. The redox reaction changes—oxidizes—the graphene, separating the layers and making the graphene hydrophilic. Once the graphene is hydrophilic, individual layers can be exfoliated in water using sonication; exfoliated single layers are graphene oxide while multiple layers are graphite oxide. As a nontraditional compound that has become a major player in the evolving world of technology, graphene oxide is responsible for the creation of many graphene-based materials. Among other things, graphene is used to ensure electrical equipment functions properly, which makes graphene oxide incredibly important.
