Abstract
We report a simple, high-yield, method of producing homogeneous dispersions of unfunctionalized and nonoxidized graphene nanosheets in ortho-dichlorobenzene (ODCB). Sonication/centrifugation of various graphite materials results in stable homogeneous dispersions. ODCB dispersions of graphene avert the need for harsh oxidation chemistry and allow for chemical functionalization of graphene materials by a range of methods. Additionally, films produced from ODCB-graphene have high conductivity.Entities:
