Facile Synthesis of Nitrogen-Doped Graphene via Pyrolysis of Graphene Oxide and Urea, and its Electrocatalytic Activity toward the Oxygen-Reduction Reaction

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that nitrogen-doped graphene (NG) has high catalytic activity toward the oxygen-reduction reaction (ORR), which often limits the performance of the cathode in a fuel cell or a metalair battery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnetic alignment of hexagonal boron nitride platelets in polymer matrix: toward high performance anisotropic polymer composites for electronic encapsulation.

TL;DR: Finite element analysis reveals promising applications for the magnetically aligned hBN-based composites in modern microelectronic packaging, including significantly reduced coefficient of thermal expansion and enhanced thermal conductivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

3D Nitrogen-doped graphene prepared by pyrolysis of graphene oxide with polypyrrole for electrocatalysis of oxygen reduction reaction

TL;DR: In this paper, a low-cost, scalable, synthetic method for preparation of NG via pyrolysis of graphene oxide with a rationally selected N source polypyrrole is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simple preparation of nanoporous few-layer nitrogen-doped graphene for use as an efficient electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction and oxygen evolution reactions

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple pyrolysis of graphene oxide and polyaniline was performed to obtain nitrogen-doped graphene (NG), which has excellent catalytic activity toward oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in an alkaline electrolyte.
Journal ArticleDOI

Superior Capacitance of Functionalized Graphene

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the superior capacitance of functionalized graphene prepared by controlled reduction of graphene oxide (GO) in a solvothermal method, where GO dispersed in dimethylformamide (DMF) was thermally treated at a moderate temperature (150 °C).
