Method of surface modifying graphene

摘要

A method of surface modifying graphene is disclosed and includes placing powder-like graphene into a closed container, heating up to a preset impurity detaching temperature higher than 100° C. so as to detach the impurity from the surface of graphene, further adjusting the treatment temperature to a preset surface modifying temperature, and injecting the gaseous surface modifying agent to be physically adsorbed by the surface of graphene. Thus, surface modified graphene is formed. The surface modifying temperature is higher than the sublimation temperature of the surface modifying agent and less than the decomposition temperature of the surface modifying agent. Therefore, the present invention is simpler and safer because of only physical adsorption used and no chemical reaction involved. Dispersibility of surface modified graphene in the solution is greatly increased to improve uniformity and enhance the performance of the final product formed of surface modified graphene.

1. A method of surface modifying graphene for performing a surface modifying process on graphene, comprising:
a surface cleaning step for placing a graphene powder mixed with a surface modifying agent in a closed container in vacuum, heating the graphene powder up to a treatment temperature higher than a preset impurity desorption temperature for a period of time to desorb an impurity attached to the surface of the graphene powder by vacuum and heating such that the impurity is removed due to thermal decomposition into gas dispersing away; and a surface treatment step for adjusting the treatment temperature to a surface modifying adsorption temperature that is higher than the sublimation point of the surface modifying agent and lower than a thermal decomposition temperature of the surface modifying agent and injecting a gaseous surface modifying agent having a sublimation point such that the surface modifying agent is adsorbed on the surface of the graphene powder due to a physical adsorption effect of π-π stacking and surface modified graphene is obtained to accomplish the method of surface modifying graphene.
