Properties and applications of graphene oxide
Grapheneoxid, a key derivative of graphene based materials, is an important one. The highly conjugated graphene structure is destroyed in the oxidation process, but the graphene oxide retains unique surface properties and a layered structure. The introduction of oxygen-containing groups not only makes the graphene oxide chemically stable, but also provides surface modification active sites…
