Size Fractionation of Graphene Oxide Sheets by pH-Assisted Selective Sedimentation

Abstract: Graphene oxide (GO) sheets prepared by Hummers' method have been separated into two portions with large (f1) or small (f2) lateral dimensions from their aqueous dispersion. This method is based on the selective precipitation of GO sheets with lateral dimensions mostly (>90%) larger than 40 μm(2) at a pH value of 4.0 because of their larger hydrophobic planes and fewer hydrophilic oxygenated groups. The hydrazine reduced Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films of f1 showed much higher conductivities than those of f2. Furt… Show more

“…Results and discussion 3.1. Characterization of three types of GO sheets There are various factors which would affect the size of GO sheets, such as degree of oxidation [30,31], controlled centrifugation [32], pH value [33], shaking or sonication [34]. Unfortunately, these methods are not suitable for mass production due to their low yield.…”
