▎ 摘　　要

We report a novel method to synthesize graphene by exfoliation of graphite using an organic agent, orthodichlorobenzene. A lot of researches are going for new materials suitable for electronics applications. Graphene, an extraordinary allotrope of carbon can be considered as a sure candidate for impending semiconductor applications. High requirement is there to fabricate graphene in good quality. Graphene can be produced in either in large-scale growth or large scale exfoliation. In this paper, graphene powder is synthesized from graphite using chemical exfoliation in organic solvent. This solution processing opens up a new era of applications such as liquid phase chemistry, sensor applications, and energy storage etc. We confirm the presence of multilayer graphene by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy and UV analysis. The aforementioned method is very much suitable for large scale synthesis of graphene headed for the industrial applications.
