摘要：
Producing graphene by Liquid-phase exfoliation (LPE) is an advantageous approach for its scalability and costeffectiveness. Solvent is an essential factor governing the yield and stability of graphene produced by LPE. However, current single solvents used in LPE are inadequate for producing high-yield graphene with high quality. We report a binary solvent strategy of dimethylacetamide and ethanol to improve the production of graphene. Hansen solubility parameters and Young's equation are employed to theoretically predict optimal solvent ratio. The as-prepared graphene is stable and defect-free, achieving concentration as high as 1.76 mg/ml (similar to 35 % by mass). The high-quality graphene exhibits an aspect ratio of 3000 along with high electrical conductivity of 588 S/cm. We propose that ethanol can rapidly insert into graphene layers by virtue of small molecular volume, synergizing with the stabilizing effect of DMAc, resulting in efficient exfoliation. The fabricated graphene supercapacitor exhibits high energy density of 66.39 Wh/kg and power density of 3583.27 W/kg with specific capacitance of 134 F/g and cycle stability for 93.2 %. The results here provide insights for the rational design of mixed solvent to promote the production of graphene, advancing the industrialization of graphene and its application.
