Blended graphene dispersions

Abstract

A dispersion of graphenic carbon nanoparticles is disclosed comprising a solvent, greater than one weight percent graphenic carbon nanoparticles based upon a total weight of the dispersion comprising thermally produced graphenic carbon nanoparticles and base graphene particles, and a polymeric resin dispersant. The weight ratio of the graphenic carbon nanoparticles to the dispersant may be greater than 5:1, and the dispersion may have an instability index of less than 0.7. A method is also disclosed for dispersing graphenic carbon particles in a solvent. A polymeric resin dispersant is mixed into the solvent, and graphenic carbon nanoparticles comprising thermally produced graphenic carbon nanoparticles and base graphenic particles are dispersed into the solvent.
