Abstract:
The ultra-low density graphene xerogel was prepared through the chemical reduction of graphene oxide suspension using a hypophosphorous acid-iodine mixture. The chemically converted graphene xerogel (CCGX) exhibited superior electrical conductivity (up to 500 S m(-1)) and high C/O atomic ratio (14.7), which were the highest values reported for the graphene-based xerogel.
