This project aims to provide a platform for the controllable manipulation of graphene oxide in water and with additives. Graphene oxide-based materials promise transformative change in the areas of filtration, separation science, energy materials and specialty coatings. Expansion of these materials into this broad range of high-performance applications is limited by the lack of reliable control over the organisation of the graphene oxide sheets in solution and in the presence of additives. This project will identify the practical steps for controlling the inter-sheet spacing in graphene oxide stacks, which is critical to realising their potential in real-world applications such as in filtration membranes for water desalination. This project will provide significant benefits in making reliable energy materials and filtration and separation membranes.Read moreRead less
