Graphene Aerogels: Part 2 - Derived From Commercial Graphene And Chemically Reduced Graphene Oxide Via Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Drying, Meryem Samanci, Ayşe Bayrakçeken
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Graphene aerogels (GAs), the most important class of carbonaceous aerogels, have attracted attention of many researchers due to their superior physical and chemical properties. In this study, commercial graphene (GR) and chemically reduced graphene oxide (RGO) were used as graphene-based precursor materials, unlike graphene oxide (GO), which is widely used in the literature in GA synthesis. GAs were synthesized using the sol-gel technique and dried with supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO2). In addition, graphene-based materials were used in different ratios and their distribution in the aerogel matrix and its effect on surface properties were investigated. In addition, the synthesized GAs were …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Graphene aerogels have become promising materials in many areas of industry, especially in energy applications due to their superior physical and electrochemical properties. Generally, graphene oxide (GO)-derived aerogels (A) are synthesized by using the hydrothermal method. In this study, both GO and reduced graphene oxide (RGO)-derived aerogels were synthesized by using the sol-gel method coupled with the supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO2) drying process. It aims to examine the changes in the structure of the final aerogel by changing the amount (0.25–0.5–1% wt.) and type of graphene-based precursor materials used in the synthesis. Physical characterizations of graphene aerogels were conducted using …
