  • Solubility tests in organic solvents.

    • Main Results:

    • Inter-sheet distances in graphite oxide significantly depend on the graphite oxide to oleylamine mass ratio.
    • Equilibrium-like adsorption behavior suggests diffusion-controlled intercalation and excluded volume effects.
    • The resulting intercalation compounds exhibit solubility in organic solvents.

    Conclusions:

    • Oleylamine intercalation effectively modifies graphite oxide structure.
    • The mass ratio of oleylamine is a critical parameter for controlling inter-sheet spacing.
    • These novel compounds show promise for fabricating transparent and conductive coatings.
