Organic dispersions of graphene oxide with arbitrary concentrations and improved chemical stabilityElectronic supplementary information (ESI) available. See DOI: 10.1039/c7cc04584k

We report a simple method that can dissolve graphene oxide (GO) in pure organic solvents ( e.g. , propylene carbonate) as readily as in pure water to form stable dispersions of single layer GO sheets. The GO sheets dispersed in propylene carbonate exhibited much better structural stability than thos...

Description
Summary:We report a simple method that can dissolve graphene oxide (GO) in pure organic solvents ( e.g. , propylene carbonate) as readily as in pure water to form stable dispersions of single layer GO sheets. The GO sheets dispersed in propylene carbonate exhibited much better structural stability than those in water. Graphene oxide (GO) can disperse in pure organic solvents as readily as in water and shows improved chemical stability.
