Abstract
A graphene nanosheet and a manufacturing method therefor and, more particularly, to a water-dispersible graphene nanosheet and a manufacturing method therefor. The water-dispersible graphene nanosheet of the present invention is characterized in that at least a part of the end portion of a basal plane is sulfated.
Claims17
A water-dispersible graphene nanosheet in which at least a part of the end portion of a basal plane of a carbon layer is sulfated.
A method for manufacturing a water-dispersible graphene nanosheet comprising the steps of dipping at least a part of a positive electrode of a graphite material and a negative electrode of a metal material into a mixed electrolyte aqueous solution containing a persulfate salt, which contains persulfate ion (S2O82−);
- a basic salt;
- and a buffer, and inducing sulfation in the end portion of the graphene nanosheet derived from graphite by an electrochemical reaction,
- wherein the pH is maintained at 7 or more during an electrochemical reaction in the mixed electrolyte aqueous solution.
