Problems solved by technology

[0003] Among them, the exfoliation of graphite oxide (GO) is a key step in the whole redox process. Common exfoliation methods include ultrasonic and pyrolytic expansion exfoliation. Ultrasonic exfoliation not only has noise pollution, but also the obtained graphene has different lateral sizes; thermal The peeling yield of the deswelling peeling method is not high, it is easy to cause the graphene oxide sheet to fold into a worm shape, and the requirements for the equipment are relatively high
Reduction is the core step in the whole redox process, which can be obtained by reducing graphene oxide with heat, light or electric field. The thermal reduction method will destroy the structure of graphene. In addition, it has higher requirements on equipment and environment. ; The thickness of graphene sheet obtained by photocatalytic reduction method is relatively thick, which will limit its performance and application
Not only there are some problems in the existing exfoliation and reduction methods, but also the separate study of them also makes the preparation process of graphene cumbersome and complicated, which is not conducive to popularization and use. Therefore, an efficient, environmentally friendly experimental method that can simultaneously complete the exfoliation and reduction is sought It is very important, especially in electrochemistry to realize the process with alternating field, which has not been reported yet. The present invention combines the basic principles of electrochemistry and the concept of green chemistry, and proposes the following simple, efficient and environmentally friendly alternating field stripping Reduction method, the test results prove that the graphene prepared by this method has good peeling and reduction effects and high quality
