Intercalation Study of Low‐Molecular‐Weight Hyperbranched Polyethyleneimine into Graphite Oxide

Abstract: We report for the first time the intercalation of low-molecular-weight hyperbranched polyethyleneimine (PEI) into graphite oxide (GO) for the facile, bulk synthesis of novel graphene-based hybrid (GO-PEI) materials exhibiting tailored interlayer galleries. The size of the intercalant as well as the loading in GO were systematically investigated to determine their contribution to the basal spacing of the resulting materials. Powder X-ray diffraction measurements demonstrated the generation of constrained hybrid… Show more

“…In addition, the notable diffraction peaks at 37.90° and 39.50° correspond to (111) plane of monoclinic CuO (JCPDS 80‐1917) and at 42.40°, 49.90° and 42.60°, 48.00° were indexed to (111) and (200) planes of metallic Cu particles (JCPDS 04‐0836) exist in the GO‐C1 and GO‐C2 nanocomposites, respectively. [ 39–41 ] The as‐prepared composites were also characterized by FT‐IR, XPS, Raman, and UV spectroscopic techniques. FT‐IR spectra of GO‐C1 and GO‐C2 material (Figure 1b) show the characteristic peaks at 3,614, 3,414 cm −1 and 3,654, 3,447 cm −1 correspond to NH str and OH str vibrations, respectively.…”

“…Intercalation of PEI into GO layers was driven by both chemical reactions and electrostatic interactions between the amine groups on PEI and the oxidation‐generated hydroxyl, carbonyl, and epoxy functionalities on GO . A low molecular weight hyperbranched PEI (1800 Da) was used to facilitate the ease of diffusion of PEI into the GO layers.…”

“…Upon sulfur loading, I D / I G further increases to 1.17 in S/PEI‐GO and 0.90 in S/GO, indicating the CC sp 2 bond is further interrupted by sulfur. [15b] Furthermore, the characteristic sulfur peaks in the range of 100–600 cm −1 were detected on both sulfur/host samples. Compared to the relatively strong sulfur peaks in S/GO, they are much weaker in S/PEI‐GO, which further confirms a better sulfur distribution in PEI‐GO …”

“…Aqueous dispersions of GO were produced starting from graphite powder using the well‐established and widely recognized modified Staudenmaier's method . In a typical procedure, 10 g of powdered graphite (purum, powder ≤0.2 mm) were added to a mixture of concentrated sulfuric acid (400 mL, 95–97 wt%) and nitric acid (200 mL, 65 wt%), while cooling it in an ice‐water bath.…”
