Journal ArticleDOI
Cost-Effective Reduced Graphene Oxide-Coated Polyurethane Sponge As a Highly Efficient and Reusable Oil-Absorbent
Yue Liu,Junkui Ma,Tao Wu,Xingrui Wang,Guanbo Huang,Yu Liu,Haixia Qiu,Yi Li,Wei Wang,Jianping Gao +9 more
TL;DR: The reduced graphene oxide coated polyurethane (rGPU) sponges are hydrophobic and oleophilic and show extremely high absorption for organic liquids and has excellent recyclability.
Journal ArticleDOI
An environmentally friendly method for the fabrication of reduced graphene oxide foam with a super oil absorption capacity.
Yong Qiang He,Yue Liu,Tao Wu,Junkui Ma,Xingrui Wang,Qiaojuan Gong,Weina Kong,Fubao Xing,Yu Liu,Jianping Gao +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, three kinds of graphene oxide (GO) foams were fabricated using different freezing methods (unidirectional freezing drying (UDF), non-directional freezing, and air freezing drying), and corresponding reduced graphene oxide foams are prepared by their thermal reduction of those GO foams.

TL;DR: Three kinds of graphene oxide (GO) foams were fabricated using different freezing methods and showed extremely high absorbing abilities for organic liquids and oil absorption capacity, which is higher than that of most oil absorbents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three-dimensional graphene-based aerogels prepared by a self-assembly process and its excellent catalytic and absorbing performance
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple one-step method for fabricating graphene-based hydrogels (GHs) with interconnected 3D networks using Cu nanoparticles was developed, which can be easily adjusted by simply changing the initial amount of CU nanoparticles or the concentration of the GO suspension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Actuator materials based on graphene oxide/polyacrylamide composite hydrogels prepared by in situ polymerization
Nana Zhang,Ruqiang Li,Lu Zhang,Huabin Chen,Wenchao Wang,Yu Liu,Tao Wu,Xiaodong Wang,Wei Wang,Yi Li,Yan Zhao,Jianping Gao +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the compressive strength of the GO/PAM hydrogel loaded with 1 wt% GO increased 6-fold in comparison to that of pure PAM, and the results indicated that some PAM macromolecules were grafted onto the GO nanosheets, and this led to good dispersion of the GAs in the composite hydrogels and consequently a significant improvement of their mechanical properties.
