Abstract

The invention discloses a process for preparing graphite according to an electrochemical method. The process comprises the following steps: firstly, mixing lewis acid with protonic acid to obtain electrolyte; secondly, taking graphite paper as an anode, and completely immersing the graphite paper into the electrolyte for intercalating to obtain intercalated graphite paper with expanded volume; thirdly, using the intercalated graphite paper as an anode, immersing the intercalated graphite paper into a solution containing sulfate ions or phosphate anions, and applying voltage to enable the intercalated graphite paper to continuously expand, wherein the intercalated graphite paper gradually falls off to form expanded graphite paste; fourthly, repeatedly washing the graphite paste by using pure water, filtering, then uniformly mixing the graphite paste with the pure water to obtain dilute paste, and sequentially carrying out ultrasonic exfoliation, filtering and drying on the dilute paste to obtain graphene powder. According to the process disclosed by the invention, the problem that a strong acid, a strong oxidant or an expensive poisonous organic solvent is adopted for preparing graphene according to an existing electrochemical method is solved, a preparation process of the graphene is also simplified, and the preparation cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to graphene preparation technology, in particular to a process for electrochemically preparing graphene. Background technique [0002] Graphene is a two-dimensional material composed entirely of carbon atoms. It is the thinnest material found so far. It has excellent mechanical properties, electrical properties, thermal properties, and optical properties. It has potential applications in many fields. But in fact, the prepared graphene is easily agglomerated due to the influence of the preparation method, and it is relatively difficult to disperse. Part of graphene is treated with surfactant to improve its dispersibility when used in the later stage, but the essence of surfactant is to wrap graphene and then charge it with a certain amount, so that the particles repel each other to achieve the dispersion effect, which cannot solve the problem of graphite in essence. ene dispersion problem. [0003] There are many ways to prepare ...
