▎ 摘  要

NOVELTY - Manufacturing (P2) a graphene compound (e.g. graphene), comprises: (a) injecting a first stock into a first inlet of a continuous or semi-continuous reactor, where the first stock comprises graphite (e.g. an additive, comprising a surfactant and/or thickening agent); and (b) collecting the graphene compound (e.g. graphene) from an outlet of the continuous reactor, where the graphene oxide is collected downstream from the injection points of the first stock. USE - The processes are useful for manufacturing graphene compound. ADVANTAGE - The processes: provide graphene compound at rates that are up to hundreds of times faster than conventional techniques, and have little batch-to-batch variation; provides graphenic compositions of matter including large, high quality and/or highly uniform graphene; and have limited potential in commercial applications, preferably high tech application that require high throughput processes that yield very consistent materials and materials characteristics. DETAILED DESCRIPTION - INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are also included for: (1) manufacturing (P2) graphene, comprising (a) injecting a first stock into a toroidal vortex flow, the first stock and the continuous flow reactor configured to produce and/or producing a helical non-vortex (e.g. shear, laminar or cylindrical Couette) flow and (b) collecting the graphene; (2) a continuous or semi-continuous reactor or reactor system (S1) comprising (a1) a first body, where the first body comprises an outer surface, (b1) a second body, where the second body comprises an inner surface, the inner surface defining a bore, and the first body is configured within the bore, (c) a reaction chamber, where the reaction chamber is configured between the outer surface of the first body and the inner surface of the second body, (d) a first inlet, where the first inlet is configured in fluid communication with the reaction chamber and (e) a first outlet, where the first outlet is configured in fluid communication with the reaction chamber (e.g. the first body and/or the bore is configured around an axis, the first inlet and first outlet is configured at different axial positions along the axis); (3) a continuous or semi-continuous reactor system (S2) comprising a first reactor and a second reactor, where the first reactor comprises a first body, the first body comprises a first outer wall, a second body, where the second body comprises a first inner wall, the first inner wall defining a first bore, the first body is configured within the first bore, a first reaction chamber, where the first reaction chamber is configured between the first outer wall of the first body and the first inner wall of the second body, a first inlet, where the first inlet is configured in fluid communication with the first reaction chamber and a first outlet, where the first outlet is configured in fluid communication with the first reaction chamber and the second reactor comprising a third body, where the third body comprises a second outer wall, a fourth body, where the fourth body comprises a second inner wall, the second inner wall defining a second bore, the third body is configured within the second bore, a second reaction chamber, where the second reaction chamber is configured between the second outer wall of the third body and the second inner wall of the fourth body, a second inlet, where the second inlet is configured in fluid communication with the second reaction chamber and a second outlet, where the second outlet is configured in fluid communication with the second reaction chamber and the first outlet is in fluid communication with the second inlet; (4) a graphene compound (e.g. graphene) having a two dimensional structure, where the two dimensional structure has an average lateral dimension of at least 10 mu ; and (5) a composition comprising many graphenic compounds (e.g. graphenes) each have a two dimensional structure, where the two dimensional structures have a lateral dimension of at least 10 mu on average.
