▎ 摘　　要

Graphene oxide (GO)-based gels are attractive because of their ability to retain individual nanosheet properties in a three-dimensional (3D) bulk material. The final morphology and properties of these 3D gel networks depend strongly on the type and density of cross-links, and these gels can be dried and annealed to form aerogels with both high conductivity (560 S/m) and high surface area (1700 m(2)/g). The results show that both ammonia content and the parent nanosheet morphology (crumpled vs flat) have a strong influence on the cross linked structure and composition; notably, nitrogen is found in the gels, suggesting that ammonia actively participates in the reaction rather than as a mere catalyst. The GO nanosheet morphology may be altered using spray-drying to obtain crumpled GO (cGO) nanosheets and form cGO gels; this allows for an additional handle in the creation of GO-based gels with tunable density, electrical conductivity, and surface area.
