Graphene Oxide Synthesis via Modified Hummers Method

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Graphene oxide (GO) was prepared by a modified Hummers method [22 (link),23 (link)]. Generally, for oxidizing 10 g of graphite powder (Acros Organics, Geel, Belgium) 230 mL of sulfuric acid (98 wt.%), 4.7 g of sodium nitrate and 30 g of potassium permanganate were used. The graphite powder was added to sulfuric acid and stirred for 30 min. Next, sodium nitrate and potassium permanganate were slowly added and the whole mixture was kept in an ice bath to keep the temperature below 10 °C. After this step the mixture was slowly heated to 35 °C and stirred for two hours. After that 100 mL of deionized water was added to the mixture and the temperature reached ~100 °C. Finally, the mixture was treated with 10 mL of 30 wt.% H2O2. The obtained slurry was kept in an ultrasonic bath for 1 h and next it was thoroughly filtered through a ceramic membrane system with 0.2 micron pore size and washed with deionized water until the pH of the filtrate reached ~7. Graphene oxide was obtained as a water suspension with the concentration of 14 mg/mL.

Fabrication of Gas Diffusion Cathode

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The gas diffusion
cathode was created by modifying carbon fiber paper (AvCarb P75T,
10 × 10 cm2, Fuel Cell Store, College Station, TX)
with a conductive, hydrophobic support layer and a carbon catalyst.14 (link) The air-facing side of the cathode was prepared
by coating a mixture of 60 wt % PTFE and 30 wt % graphite powder (200
mesh, Alfa Aesar, Ward Hill, MA) onto one side of the carbon base
layer. The cathode was then air-dried at room temperature, followed
by sintering at 350 °C for 40 min. The liquid-facing side was
prepared by applying a mixture of 3 mL of propanol with 150 mg of
carbon black (Cabot Black Pearls 2000, Cabot, Boston, MA) and 50 mg
of PTFE onto the other side of the carbon base layer. The cathode
was again air-dried at room temperature, followed by sintering at
350 °C for 40 min.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
