Problems solved by technology

Various methods have their advantages and disadvantages: the mechanical exfoliation method is not suitable for large-scale industrial preparation of graphene due to the limitations of the exfoliation method; the chemical vapor deposition method and the epitaxial growth method have complex processes, harsh conditions, low yield, Disadvantages such as high cost limit its large-scale industrial production and application of graphene
While the existing reducing agent NaBH 4 , various alkoxides and N 2 h 4 And its derivatives still have problems such as incomplete reduction of oxidized functional groups and low conductivity of products, all of which have problems of incomplete reduction
In addition, the organic reducing agent hydrazine and its derivatives are highly toxic and may cause environmental pollution
However, NaH and high-concentration HI are used as reducing agents, although the reducing effect is better, but the reactivity is too high, resulting in too severe reduction reaction and difficult to control.

preparation example Construction

[0025] The preparation method of graphene oxide used in the example: mix 3g of graphite powder, 3g of sodium nitrate and 138ml of concentrated sulfuric acid in an ice bath; then slowly add 18g of potassium permanganate, magnetically stir and mix, and then heat in a 35°C water bath for 1h; Then add 240ml of deionized water and heat at 90°C for 0.5h. After the heating, add 600ml of deionized water and 18ml of hydrogen peroxide.

[0026] The graphene oxide obtained after oxidation can be ultrasonically dispersed, then diluted according to a certain ratio, and finally the diluted liquid is centrifuged, and the upper layer suspension is taken, and a graphene oxide film of a certain thickness is prepared by suction filtration.

[0027] After the prepared graphene film is dried, measure the film thickness of the graphene film with a step meter, and measure its electrical conductivity with a four-probe method.

Embodiment 1

[0029] After centrifugation, 40ml of graphene oxide (GO) supernatant suspension (GO concentration 0.2mg / ml, solvent is ethanol) was suction-filtered to form a film, and dried for later use.

[0030] Dissolve 7.62g of iodine and 1.5g of aluminum in 100ml of ethanol, heat and stir to prepare aluminum iodide (the concentration of aluminum iodide is 0.2mol / L, wherein the aluminum is excessive). Then the dried graphene oxide (GO) film was put into aluminum iodide solution and reduced at 80 °C for 1 h under magnetic stirring.

[0031] The test result is: the conductivity of the graphene film is 5230S / m.

[0032] Using aluminum iodide as a reducing agent, changing the concentration of the reducing agent, and keeping other conditions constant, the electrical conductivity of the obtained graphene is shown in the following table:

Embodiment 2

[0035] Dissolve 7.62g of iodine and 1.5g of aluminum in 100ml of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), heat and stir to prepare aluminum iodide (the concentration of aluminum iodide is 0.2mol / L, wherein the aluminum is excessive). Then the dried graphene oxide (GO) film was put into aluminum iodide solution and reduced at 140 °C for 1 h under magnetic stirring.

[0036] The test result is: the conductivity of the graphene film is 7110S / m.

[0037] Using aluminum iodide as a reducing agent, changing the solvent type, reduction temperature and reduction time, and under the premise of other conditions unchanged, the electrical conductivity of the obtained graphene is shown in the following table:
