A reaction that puzzled scientists for 50 years has now been explained by researchers at Ume University. Rapid structural snapshots captured how graphite transforms into graphite oxide during ...

image: Natural graphite, used as the precursor for graphene oxide production, is a highly ordered crystalline inorganic material, which is believed to be formed by decay of organic matter. It is ...

Graphene has drawn attention as a scientific curiosity owing to its record conductivities, strength and thermal properties. But now, it's starting to make its way into a number of real-world ...

Although oxide recovery appeared higher in prior tests #1 and #2 using the "Prior Solvent," those tests were conducted on oxidized black mass samples. In contrast, the recent Results were achieved ...

A paper by Kazan Federal University appeared in early access in Carbon. Another new finding, registered by Ksenia Shukhina for the first time, was the imaginary reversibility of the C-O bond formation ...
