Abstract:
1. A method for producing a graphene-containing product that includes a graphene-containing component, comprising: (i) mixing graphene oxide with a medium to form a mixture, wherein the medium comprises a polymer or a precursor thereof; and (ii) heating the mixture to a temperature equal to or above 140° C. and equal to or below 250° C., wherein said graphene-containing product comprises a polymer; wherein the weight ratio of said polymer to said graphene-containing component in said graphene-containing product is equal to or greater than twenty to one; wherein said step of heating is sufficient to transform said graphene oxide into a graphene-containing component and conducted for a sufficient time to transform said graphene oxide into said graphene-containing component; and wherein the atomic carbon to oxygen ratio in said graphene-containing component is greater than about 4.
