Semiconductor Hydrophilic Graphene Oxide Powders
1. Graphene has good electrical properties,
but the graphene oxide itself is an insulator (or semiconductor). Due to the
presence of a large number of hydrophilic groups (e.g. carboxyl and hydroxyl
groups), graphene oxide is easily dispersed in an aqueous solution, to form a
single small fragments, but most have only a single layer of graphite
2. Graphene oxide can be regarded as a
non-traditional patterns of soft material, having properties of the polymer,
gel, film, and the amphiphilic molecules. Graphene oxide has long been regarded
as a hydrophilic substance, because it has excellent dispersion in water.
3. Compared with graphene, graphene oxide
has more excellent performance. Not only has good wetting properties and
surface activity, and small molecules or polymers can be inserted after
delamination, plays a very important role in improving the overall performance
thermal, electrical, mechanical and other material aspects.
4. Graphene oxide is an excellent novel
carbon material, is considered to be one of the best catalyst support material.
