Abstract:Graphenic carbon (GC) has been successfully synthesized from biomass (coconut shell charcoal) using the liquid phase exfoliation method. The dopants, in the form of light atoms such as boron (B-GC), were introduced with the aim of improving their magnetic properties. X-ray diffraction was used to identify the GC and B-GC, and the results show broad peaks around 24° and 43°, indicating the presence of graphene-like carbon structure. The bonding structure was also analyzed using X-ray photoelectron (XPS). It rev… Show more
