Preparation of Bulk13C-Enriched Graphene Materials
Abstract
Arc-discharge has been widely used in the bulk production of various carbon nanomaterials, especially for structurally more robust single-walled carbon nanotubes. In this paper, the same bulk-production technique was applied to the synthesis of significantly13C-enriched graphitic materials, from which graphene oxides similarly enriched with13C were prepared and characterized. The results demonstrate that arc-discharge is a convenient method to produce bulk quantities of13C-enriched graphene materials from relatively less expensive precursors (largely amorphous13C powders).
