Journal ArticleDOI
Large-area graphene-based nanofiltration membranes by shear alignment of discotic nematic liquid crystals of graphene oxide.
Abozar Akbari,Phillip Sheath,Samuel T. Martin,Dhanraj B. Shinde,Mahdokht Shaibani,Parama Chakraborty Banerjee,Rachel Tkacz,Dibakar Bhattacharyya,Mainak Majumder +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the discotic nematic phase of graphene oxide (GO) can be shear aligned to form highly ordered, continuous, thin films of multi-layered GO on a support membrane by an industrially adaptable method to produce large-area membranes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Graphene-based nanosheets for stronger and more durable concrete: A review
Ezzatollah Shamsaei,Felipe Basquiroto de Souza,Xupei Yao,Emad Benhelal,Abozar Akbari,Wenhui Duan +5 more
TL;DR: Graphene and graphene-based nanosheets (GNS) possess extraordinary mechanical, chemical, thermal and electrical properties, enabling attractive applications, ranging from structural strength/durability improvement, anti-corrosion, to self-cleaning surfaces and energy saving.
Journal ArticleDOI
ZIF-8 derived nitrogen-doped porous carbon/carbon nanotube composite for high-performance supercapacitor
Li Wan,Ezzatollah Shamsaei,Christopher D. Easton,Dongbo Yu,Yan Liang,Xiaofang Chen,Zahra Abbasi,Abozar Akbari,Xiwang Zhang,Huanting Wang +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, a porous carbon/carbon nanotube composite was prepared by in situ growth of porous nitrogen-abundant ZIF-8 nanoparticles onto carbon nanotubes and subsequent carbonization at 800°C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Suppressed Polysulfide Crossover in Li–S Batteries through a High-Flux Graphene Oxide Membrane Supported on a Sulfur Cathode
Mahdokht Shaibani,Mahdokht Shaibani,Abozar Akbari,Phillip Sheath,Christopher D. Easton,Parama Chakraborty Banerjee,Kristina Konstas,Armaghan Fakhfouri,Marzieh Barghamadi,Marzieh Barghamadi,Mustafa Musameh,Adam S. Best,Thomas Rüther,Peter J. Mahon,Matthew R. Hill,Matthew R. Hill,Anthony F. Hollenkamp,Mainak Majumder +17 more
TL;DR: The facile fabrication of a high-flux graphene oxide membrane directly onto the sulfur cathode by shear alignment of discotic nematic liquid crystals of graphene oxide (GO) is reported, enabling the cells to deliver very high initial discharging capability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solvent Transport Behavior of Shear Aligned Graphene Oxide Membranes and Implications in Organic Solvent Nanofiltration
Abozar Akbari,Sally El Meragawi,Samuel T. Martin,Ben Corry,Ezzatollah Shamsaei,Christopher D. Easton,Dibakar Bhattacharyya,Mainak Majumder +7 more
TL;DR: The extended solvent-handling space of GO membranes is highlighted, such as in polar protic, polar aprotic, and nonpolar solvents, demonstrating versatility over a commercial nanofiltration membrane, and is predicted to predict exciting new applications in advanced separation engineering.
