“…Similar to CNT, graphene consists of a one atom thick carbon (sp 2 hybridized) sheet composed of six-member rings [78] providing an exposed surface area that is nearly twice as large as that of single-walled carbon nanotubes [75]. Other advantages of this material that make it attractive for analytical applications include its high mechanical strength, high elasticity, high thermal conductivity [75] and the absence of metallic impurities that can affect the accuracy of a sensor [79].…”

The objective of this review is to provide a broad overview of the advantages and limitations of carbon-based nanomaterials with respect to analytical chemistry. Aiming to illustrate the impact of nanomaterials on the development of novel analytical applications, developments reported in the 2005–2010 period have been included and divided into sample preparation, separation, and detection. Within each section, fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, graphene, and composite materials will be addressed specifically. Although only briefly discussed, included is a section highlighting nanomaterials with interesting catalytic properties that can be used in the design of future devices for analytical chemistry.

Graphene is the thinnest known materials in the universe and the strongest ever measured. Graphene has emerged as an exotic material of the 21st century and received world-wide attention due to its exceptional charge transport, thermal, optical, mechanical, and adsorptive properties. Recently, graphene and its derivatives are considered promising candidates as adsorbent for H 2 storage, CO 2 capture, etc. and as the sensors for detecting individual gas molecule. The main purpose of this review is to comprehensive the synthesis method of graphene and to brief the adsorption behaviors of graphene and its derivatives.

“…Many studies have been conducted on the effects of the integration of nano-materials such as nanoclay, carbon nanofiber, and carbon nanotubesin polymer resins [2][3][4][5]. Recently, graphene nanoplatelets and graphene nanoparticles have seen increased attention as possible nanofillers for nanocomposite materials [6]. Increased attention has also been focused on effective dispersion of nanoparticles throughout various composite matrices, as proper dispersion remains a main obstacle towards ideal utilization of nanocomposites.…”

Plain strain fracture toughness (K IC ) of graphene-epoxy (G-Ep) and carbon-graphene-epoxy (C-G-Ep) hybrid nanocomposites have been evaluated using single-edge-notch bending (SENB) specimens. The effects of graphene concentrations on K IC have been examined. G-Ep nanocomposites were prepared using a combination of mechanical mixing, magnetic stirring, sonication and high shear mixing. The hybrid nanocomposites (C-G-Ep) were processed using manual layup techniques and vacuum assistance during curing process. The dispersion morphology and fracture surface of all specimens were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy(SEM) analysis. The results show significant improvement in fracture toughness of both G-Ep and C-G-Ep nanocomposites in comparison to neat epoxy and conventional carbon-epoxy composites. The SEM images show evidence of slight graphene agglomeration, but reasonably effective graphene dispersion is observed throughout epoxy matrix. The toughening mechanisms such as crack deflection, crack pinning, debonding, fiber bridging and pull-out are possibly contributed to enhancing fracture toughness in G-Ep and C-G-Ep nanocomposites.
