Progress in Research on the Preparation of Graphene-Based Aerogels Using γ-ray Irradiation Technology

Abstract

Graphene aerogels (GAs) are of significant interest in the scientific community due to their unique attributes, including a three-dimensional porous structure, exceptional specific surface area, and remarkable chemical stability. Researchers have made notable breakthroughs in aerogel preparation, focusing on aspects like porous structures and chemical stability. This review explores product morphologies and properties developed between 2011 and 2023, particularly examining applications of graphene aerogels with amine or alcohol radical scavengers. It offers a roadmap for researchers, suggesting possibilities for radiation-based preparation and indicating broader applications. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of aerogels and expand the potential applications of graphene aerogels across various fields.
