▎ 摘  要

NOVELTY - Preparing a low-layer graphene involves: (1) preparing graphene oxide by (1.1) adding a graphite powder to concentrated sulfuric acid and reacting, where the solution is graphite color, then adding nitric acid, stirring for more than 10 minutes, then adding potassium permanganate to the obtained mixed solution, where the solution is dark green, controlling the temperature of the reaction solution at 35-45 degrees C, and stirring, where the solution is yellow-green, (1.2) increasing the temperature of the mixed solution obtained in step (1.1) to 60-70 degrees C, stirring, and continuously heating, and (1.3) cooling the grayish blue paste obtained in step (1.2) to below room temperature, slowly adding excess absolute ethanol and stirring, where the solution becomes black; and (2) preparing the low-layer graphene by (2.1) repeatedly centrifuging and washing the graphene oxide solution obtained in step (1.3) with water until the pH is neutral, then ultrasonically processing and freeze drying. USE - The method is useful for preparing a low-layer graphene, which is useful in a lithium-ion battery.
