▎ 摘  要

The assembly of graphene into functional macrostructures has attracted intense interest in recent years. Herein we report the first reversible 3D self-assembly of graphene oxide/reduced graphene oxide with stimuli-responsive polymers poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) or poly(propylene oxide) (PPO), which results in a photo/thermal reversible supramolecular graphene/polymer composite hydrogel with adjustable sol-gel transition temperature. The assembly method is extremely convenient and straightforward based on a new assembly mechanism, i.e., PNIPAM or PPO chains with temperature-responsive hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity can reversibly adsorb onto and cross-link the graphene sheets via noncovalent interactions. Utilizing the reversibility of the 3D assembly, we further develop a new strategy to prepare a graphene macrostructure with minimum re-stacking of graphene sheets and an ultrahigh specific surface area (similar to 1410 m(2) g(-1)), based on which we successfully fabricate a supercapacitor electrode and a flexible/foldable all-solid-state supercapacitor with remarkable electrochemical performance (292 F g(-1) at 1 A g(-1) and 215 F g(-1) at 100 A g(-1)).
