Synthesis of graphene foams and their sorption properties of n-hexane
Abstract
The influence of preparation conditions of the graphene foams on their physicochemical properties is shown. Different graphene aerogels were obtained from various graphene oxide water suspensions using the hydrothermal method (with or without the addition of acrylic microemulsion and varying in drying time—24 and 48 h). Prolonged drying of the hydrogels resulted in smaller pores in the foams. The composition of graphene oxide (GO) and acrylic polymer water suspensions leads to the smallest surface area which is due to the closing of the pores of the composite structure. Thermal treatment of samples at 950 °C removed the polymer residues. The heating process increased the surface area and the total pore volume of all samples, which were used to test the graphene foams (GFs) for adsorption of n-hexane. These tests have shown that the most effective samples for n-hexane adsorption were the samples where for the preparation of the composite GO and acrylic resin were used. The best of obtained samples adsorbed 415 mg g<sup>−1</sup> of n-hexane which is a better result than for activated carbon manufactured from natural cork. Further preparation and modification of graphene foams could result in a significant increase in their sorption properties and could be used for contaminated air purification in the nearest future.
