Q2. What is the significance of oxidizing graphene?
graphite oxidation endows single- or few-layered GO with the great advantages of improved solubility or dispersibility in aqueous solutions and reasonable colloidal stability.
Q3. What is the purpose of the GRAPHENE Flagship project?
This project is tasked to take graphene from the realm of academic laboratories into European society in the space of ten years and to generate economic growth, new jobs, and new opportunities.[13]
Q4. What is the significance of a graphene sheet?
In analogy to the requirement that graphene sheets must be of an appropriate size (i.e., size tuning of the lateral dimension) to suitably interface with biological systems, evidence is accumulating that cell viability and toxicity responses can be modulated by controlling the GBM surface oxygen content.
Q5. How many scientific papers have been published on graphene in 2010?
While the media is boosting the public profile of graphene through the reference to “miracle material of the 21st century”,[2, 3] the number of scientific papers on graphene also exceeded 3000 per year in 2010.
Q6. What are the benefits of using ad hoc samples?
There are indeed numerous long-term benefits for all players in the graphene-biological community if diligence is shown by all in characterizing their materials and describing them according to layer number, lateral size, and surface chemistry rather than using ad hoc sample names.
Q7. What is the name of the project?
The GRAPHENE Flagship is a 10- year project and the European Union s biggest research initiative ever with a budget of one billion EURO (http:// graphene-flagship.eu/).
Q8. How can graphene be transformed into reduced rGO?
Graphene can also be transformed into reduced rGO and this will increase the C/O ratio to approximately 12:1 but values as large as 246:1 have recently been reported.
Q9. What is the important aspect of graphene research?
One concern in graphene research is that, similar to carbon nanotubes, the term graphene is used in a generic manner and not in a precise way by scientists to describe many graphene-based materials (GBMs) they have synthesized and studied.[10]
Q10. What is the prerequisite to understanding graphene?
This will be a prerequisite, for example, to understand structure–activity relationships in the context of human health and safety and to avoid generalizations about the capabilities and limitations of graphenebased materials.
