Description

Method for electrochemically preparing graphene
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of inorganic material preparation, and particularly relates to a method for electrochemically preparing graphene.
Background
The low-cost large-scale preparation of the graphene is a key technical problem which needs to be solved by exerting excellent electric conduction and heat conduction characteristics of the graphene and promoting the graphene to be applied to the fields of electric heating, sensing, energy storage and the like. The most important technical route for preparing graphene is to take cheap graphite as a raw material and perform intercalation and stripping between graphite layers. For the technical route, high quality is a precondition for realizing various applications of the method, and environmental protection and safety of a preparation system and a preparation process are considered. However, the development of a preparation strategy with high quality, high yield and environmental friendliness still faces challenges, and the realization of low-cost large-scale preparation of graphene through principle innovation and process technology improvement is still an important research topic in the field of graphene materials. The preparation of graphene by an electrolytic method is widely concerned due to the characteristics of rapidness, relative environmental friendliness and the like.
There are a number of reports on methods for preparing graphene by electrolysis, such as: CN108675287A mentions that graphene can be obtained by performing electrochemical anode stripping in liquid molten salt, and the temperature is required to reach a certain condition; in CN107628609A, expanded graphite is used as a negative electrode and an anode, an acidic electrolyte is used, a bidirectional alternating pulse voltage is applied between the negative electrode and the anode, and an agglomerated graphene oxide mixed solution is obtained through electrolysis; parvez (ACS Nano 2013,7,3598) and the like use acidic dilute sulfuric acid as electrolyte to obtain oxidized graphene with high oxidation degree and thick layers; muratlu (Carbon, 2012, 50, 142) et al prepared oxidized graphene having a thickness of about 1.2nm using sodium dodecyl sulfate as an electrolyte; song et al (Journal of Power Sources 2014, 249, 48-58) used a potassium nitrate solution as an electrolyte under neutral conditions and controlled the lower potential to reduce the number of layers from which graphene is exfoliated. However, at lower pH, nitrate also produces a thicker and more oxidized graphite nanolayer, consistent with the exfoliation process at tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate; meanwhile, Zeng et al (ChemSusChem 2011,4,1587) also prepare graphene oxide with higher oxidation degree by electrochemical stripping in phosphate. Therefore, the electrochemical method for stripping graphene is very dependent on the electrolyte, and actually, the graphene obtained under the acidic condition has a high oxidation degree due to the action of the acidic condition, so that a subsequent further reduction process is required to obtain high-quality intrinsic graphene on the basis.
At present, no report on a method for preparing graphene by an asymmetric alternating current electrolysis method is seen.
