-OH Functionalized Graphene Applications
1. Additives in Polymers: -OH Functionalized Graphene enhances the properties of polymer matrices by improving their strength, flexibility, and thermal stability. The hydroxyl (-OH) groups form bonds with the polymer chains, which results in better dispersion and compatibility within the matrix. This can lead to stronger, more durable materials used in automotive, aerospace, and consumer products.
2. Catalysts: The presence of hydroxyl groups on graphene improves its catalytic activity, particularly in oxidation reactions, where it can act as a support for active catalytic materials like metals (e.g., platinum, gold). The -OH groups enhance interaction with the catalyst particles, increasing the surface area and reaction efficiency. These catalysts are useful in fuel cells, environmental remediation, and green chemistry applications.
3. Lithium-Battery Anodes: -OH Functionalized Graphene serves as an anode material in lithium-ion batteries, offering a high surface area and improved lithium-ion storage capacity. The hydroxyl groups improve electrode stability and enhance lithium-ion transport, resulting in batteries with higher capacity, longer life cycles, and faster charging rates, which are ideal for electric vehicles and portable electronics.
4. Nanotube Composites (by Filling or Coating): Functionalized graphene can be used to coat or fill carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in composite materials, improving their dispersion and bonding with the matrix. The -OH groups on graphene interact with the nanotube surfaces, creating strong interfacial bonds. This composite structure enhances the mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties of the material, making it valuable in high-performance electronics and lightweight structural components.
5. Drug Delivery: -OH Functionalized Graphene is ideal for drug delivery systems because the hydroxyl groups allow for chemical attachment of drug molecules and improve solubility in biological environments. This functionalization allows precise control over drug loading and release, improving targeting and minimizing side effects. Such systems are promising in cancer therapy, where drugs can be delivered directly to tumors, and in other applications requiring controlled drug delivery.
