  • Scalable fabrication of pristine holey graphene nanoplatelets via dry microwave irradiation
    Patent number: 11377356
    Abstract: Disclosed are the methods for fabricating holey graphene nanoplatelets using microwave irradiation to treat a dry graphite powder. In particular, the methods can be used to treat graphite intercalation compounds either with or without partial oxidation to obtain holey graphene nanoplatelets with predetermined hole size, hole edge shape, thickness and lateral dimension. The method does not involve any toxic reagents or metal-containing compounds, and without generating toxic byproducts, thus enabling a variety of eco-friendly applications.
