  • Publication number: 20180105952
    Abstract: The growth of a specific crystal plane of a polycrystalline metal is induced or suppressed by forming a carbon material on the surface of the polycrystalline metal, and accordingly, the ratio of the crystal plane may be controlled, particularly, the crystal plane may be controlled so as for the polycrystalline metal to be similar to a single crystalline metal. Accordingly, a metal-carbon material composite where a crystal plane is controlled may be mass-produced at low costs through a continuous process.

  • Publication number: 20180090769
    Abstract: Prepared is a halogenated carbon material, which reduces a carbon material having an oxygen-based functional group by introducing a halogen gas or a mixed gas of a halogen gas and an inert gas into the carbon material having an oxygen-based functional group, and dopes a halogen into the carbon material. The resulting halogenated carbon material includes one or more selected from a group consisting of C—Y2 and C—Y3, and may be suitably for an energy device such as a fuel cell, a lithium ion battery, and a solar cell.

  • Patent number: 9318231
    Abstract: Methods of preparing reduced graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide-polymer composites. The methods include covalently binding a halogen-substituted aromatic compounds to a graphene oxide and heat treating the graphene oxide with the halogen-substituted aromatic compounds covalently bound thereto at a low temperature, for example, 450° C. or less. By using the methods, reduced graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide-polymer composites that have high electrical conductivities (e.g., 30,000 S/m or more) may be obtained.
