| Abstract Scope |
Since its discovery, graphene has been extensively researched and has led to technological developments in several domains. One of the main challenges in graphene research is the mass production of good quality graphene powder that can be utilized in composites; which by default requires large quantity of graphene. There is obviously plethora of current mass production methods that have been reported. But virtually all of them produce mostly black graphene and sometimes deep grayish colored variety. This has introduced inherent limitations in adaptation of graphene in several applications that strictly require better control on product coloration. The workaround solution is to use as little graphene as possible to basically avoid coloring products in black or only focus on products that don’t require stringent color demand. In any case, we are reporting another scaleup route for mass production of graphene but the produced graphene is not black. |
