    • Graphene and related 2D material (GRM) thin films consist of 3D assembly of billions of 2D nanosheets randomly distributed and interacting via van der Waals forces. Their complexity and the multiscale nature yield a wide variety of electrical characteristics ranging from doped semiconductor to glassy metals depending on the crystalline quality of the nanosheets, their specific structural organization ant the operating temperature. Here, the charge transport (CT) mechanisms are studied that are occurring in GRM thin films near the metal-insulator transition (MIT) highlighting the role of defect density and local arrangement of the nanosheets. Two prototypical nanosheet types are compared, i.e., 2D reduced graphene oxide and few-layer-thick electrochemically exfoliated graphene flakes, forming thin films with comparable composition, morphology and room temperature conductivity, but different defect density and crystallinity. By investigating their structure, morphology, and the dependence of their electrical conductivity on temperature, noise and magnetic-field, a general model is developed describing the multiscale nature of CT in GRM thin films in terms of hopping among mesoscopic bricks, i.e., grains. The results suggest a general approach to describe disordered van der Waals thin films.

  • Amino acid-driven adsorption of emerging contaminants in water by modified graphene oxide nanosheets
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Environmental Science: Water Research and Technology. - : Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC). - 2053-1419 .- 2053-1400. ; 9:4, s. 1030-1040

    • Graphene oxide nanosheets have shown promising adsorption properties toward emerging organic contaminants in drinking water. Here, we report a family of graphene oxide nanosheets covalently modified with amino acids and the study on their adsorption properties toward a mixture of selected contaminants, including pharmaceuticals, additives, and dyes. Graphene oxides modified with l-glutamic acid and l-methionine (GO-Glu and GO-Met) were synthesized and purified with a scalable and fast synthetic and purification procedure, and their structure was studied by combined X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and elemental analysis. An amino acid loading of about 5% and a slight reduction (from 27% down to 14-20% oxygen) were found and associated with the adsorption selectivity. They were compared to unmodified GO, reduced GO (rGO), GO-lysine, and to the reference sample GO-NaOH. Each type of modified GO possesses a higher adsorption capacity toward bisphenol A (BPA), benzophenone-4 (BP4), and carbamazepine (CBZ) than standard GO and rGO, and the adsorption occurred within the first hour of contact time. The maximum adsorption capacity (estimated from the adsorption isotherms) was strictly related to the amino acid loading. Accordingly, molecular dynamics simulations highlighted higher interaction energies for the modified GOs than unmodified GO, as a result of higher van der Waals and hydrophobic interactions between the contaminants and the amino acid side chains on the nanosheet surface.

  • Controllable Coating Graphene Oxide and Silanes on Cu Particles as Dual Protection for Anticorrosion
  • 2023

    • Although two-dimensional nanosheets like graphene could be ideal atomic coatings to prevent corrosion, it is still controversial whether they are actually effective due to the presence of parasitic effects such as galvanic corrosion. Here, we reported a reduced graphene oxide (RGO) coating strategy to protect sintered Cu metal powders from corrosion by addressing the common galvanic corrosion issue of graphene. A layer of silane molecules, namely, (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES), is deposited between the surface of Cu particles and the graphene oxide (GO), acting as a primer to enhance adhesion and as an insulating interlayer to prevent the direct contact of the Cu with conductive RGO, mitigating the galvanic corrosion. Due to this core−shell coating, the RGO uniformly distributes in the Cu matrix after sintering, avoiding aggregation of RGO, which takes place in conventional GO-Cu composites. The dual coating of GO and silane results in bulk samples with improved anticorrosion properties, as demonstrated by galvanostatic polarization tests using Tafel analysis. Our development not only provides an efficient synthesis method to controllably coat GO on the surface of Cu but also suggests an alternative strategy to avoid the galvanic corrosion effect of graphene to improve the anticorrosion performance of metal.

  • Surface chemistry and structure manipulation of graphene-related materials to address the challenges of electrochemical energy storage
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Chemical Communications. - : Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC). - 1364-548X .- 1359-7345. ; 59:18, s. 2571-2583

    • Energy storage devices are important components in portable electronics, electric vehicles, and the electrical distribution grid. Batteries and supercapacitors have achieved great success as the spearhead of electrochemical energy storage devices, but need to be further developed in order to meet the ever-increasing energy demands, especially attaining higher power and energy density, and longer cycling life. Rational design of electrode materials plays a critical role in developing energy storage systems with higher performance. Graphene, the well-known 2D allotrope of carbon, with a unique structure and excellent properties has been considered a “magic” material with its high energy storage capability, which can not only aid in addressing the issues of the state-of-the-art lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors, but also be crucial in the so-called post Li-ion battery era covering different technologies, e.g., sodium ion batteries, lithium-sulfur batteries, structural batteries, and hybrid supercapacitors. In this feature article, we provide a comprehensive overview of the strategies developed in our research to create graphene-based composite electrodes with better ionic conductivity, electron mobility, specific surface area, mechanical properties, and device performance than state-of-the-art electrodes. We summarize the strategies of structure manipulation and surface modification with specific focus on tackling the existing challenges in electrodes for batteries and supercapacitors by exploiting the unique properties of graphene-related materials.

  • Adsorption of emerging contaminants by graphene related materials and their alginate composite hydrogels
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Journal of Environmental Chemical Engineering. - : Elsevier BV. - 2213-3437 .- 2213-2929. ; 11:2
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Graphene nanosheets and nanoplatelets -alginate composite hydrogels were prepared by ionic gelation and the resulting gel beads were exploited for the removal of a mixture of eight selected emerging contaminants (ECs) in tap water, including bisphenol A, ofloxacin and diclofenac. The role of graphene related materials (GRM) on the gel bead structure, adsorption selectivity, kinetic, mechanism, and efficiency was investigated. Combined Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and confocal Raman microscopy mapping showed a porous structure with pore size in the range of 100–200 µm and a homogeneous distribution of graphene nanosheets or nanoplatelets at the pores surface. The adsorption kinetic of GRM was much faster than that of granular activated carbon (GAC), the industrial sorbent benchmark, with removal capacity of ofloxacin from 2.9 to 4.3 times higher. A maximum adsorption capacity of 178 mg/g for rhodamine B was estimated by adsorption isotherm studies for reduced graphene oxide-based beads (a value comparable to that of powered activated carbon). Regeneration test performed on saturated beads by washing with EtOH, and subsequent reiterated reuses, showed no loss of adsorption performance up to the fourth reuse cycle.

  • Chemical Tailoring of β-Cyclodextrin-Graphene Oxide for Enhanced Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) Adsorption from Drinking Water
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Chemistry - A European Journal. - 1521-3765 .- 0947-6539. ; 29:60
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • We report on the synthesis of β-cyclodextrin (βCD) modified graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets, having different sized alkyl linkers (GO-Cn-βCD) and their exploitation as sorbent of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from drinking water. βCD were functionalized with a pending amino group, and the resulting precursors grafted to GO nanosheets by epoxide ring opening reaction. Loading of βCD units in the range 12 %–36 % was estimated by combined XPS and elemental analysis. Adsorption tests on perfluorobutanoic acid (PFBA), a particularly persistent PFAS selected as case study, revealed a strong influence of the alkyl linker length on the adsorption efficiency, with the hexyl linker derivative GO-C6-βCD outperforming both pristine GO and granular activated carbon (GAC), the standard sorbent benchmark. Molecular dynamic simulations ascribed this evidence to the favorable orientation of the βCD unit on the surface of GO which enables a strong contaminant molecules retention.
