Abstract:
A system for the exfoliation of a layered material is described, comprising in combination: an exfoliation station ( 14 - 22 ) operating on a volume of a dispersion of a layered precursor material, including a wet-jet milling device ( 10 ); and a collecting station ( 30, 40 ), located downstream of the exfoliation station ( 14 - 22 ), operating on a volume of a dispersion of the at least partly exfoliated material, in which the exfoliation station ( 14 - 22 ) and the collecting station ( 30,   40 ) are connected to each other through a fluid communication path ( 20 ) along which there are interposed flow regulating means ( 50 ) adapted to assume a first operating configuration in which the communication path ( 20 ) between the exfoliation station ( 14 - 22 ) and the collecting station ( 30, 40 ) is discontinued, where the exfoliation station ( 14 - 22 ) is adapted to subject a volume of dispersion of layered precursor material to a predetermined number of wet jet milling cycles; and a second operating configuration in which the communication path ( 20 ) between the exfoliation station ( 14 - 22 ) and the collecting station ( 30, 40 ) is continuous, where the exfoliation station ( 14 - 22 ) is adapted to convey a volume of previously milled dispersion including at least partly exfoliated material to the collecting station ( 30, 40 ) and is placed in communication with a supply chamber ( 12 ) to be fed with a further volume of a dispersion of layered precursor material that has to be exfoliated.

Claim (Index 11):
The method according to  claim 9 , in which a wet-jet milling cycle includes the injection of a predetermined volume of the dispersion of the layered precursor material to a plurality of fluid paths adapted to guide the dispersion and generate one or more linear jets, in which the free movement of the layered precursor material in the dispersion and collisions between jets cause exfoliation of the layered precursor material.
