Background
Graphene is a material with sp between carbon atoms 2 The two-dimensional atomic crystal has a honeycomb-shaped hexagonal honeycomb lattice structure and is in hybrid connection with the hexagonal honeycomb lattice structure. Currently, the most widely used method for preparing graphene is a redox method, or an expanded graphite exfoliation method, which is also a redox method that is substantially oxidized, then exfoliated through an expansion and reduction process. In the redox method, oxygen-containing functional groups are formed in the structure of graphite in the oxidation process, and carbon atoms are lost while the graphite is removed in the reduction process, so that the structure of the prepared graphene is damaged, and the performance, particularly the conductivity, is influenced. Compared with a redox method, the graphene prepared by the graphite expansion and stripping method has a more complete structure and inevitably has more excellent electric conduction, heat conduction, mechanical properties and the like, and the excellent properties enable the graphene material to have wider application and application prospect.
Graphite is a typical layered structure mineral, and atoms all adopt sp 2 The hybrid orbit and three adjacent carbon atoms form sigma bonds to form a structural layer in hexagonal network annular arrangement, and the structural layers are combined by Van der Waals force. P in graphite layer z The interaction of orbital electrons forms delocalized big pi bonds, and pi bond electrons are very active and can freely move in the layer, so that the graphite has good electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity. Meanwhile, the graphite has good chemical stability at normal temperature and is not corroded by any strong acid, strong base and organic solvent, so that the graphite product has chemical stability and anti-corrosion capability. Due to weak interlayer force and chemical activity of pi electrons, chemical substances can enter the graphite interlayer under certain conditions, and graphene can be prepared through an expansion-stripping process.

Here, the reaction vessel may be an acid-resistant reaction vessel with a high-speed mechanical stirring and heating device and an attachment for a high-speed dispersion homogenizer. g/ml/g represents graphite in g, concentrated sulfuric acid in ml, and swelling agent in g.
The second step is that: and (3) carrying out static expansion reaction on the fluffy graphite mixture obtained in the first step at a preset temperature for a preset time to obtain the crude high-expansion-rate expanded graphite. Here, the temperature of the static expansion may be 20 to 90 ℃, for example, 25 ℃, 40 ℃, 50 ℃, 60 ℃, 80 ℃. The static expansion time can be 1-24 h, for example, 2h, 4h, 8h, 12h, 14h, 18h, 20 h. Specifically, a certain amount of expanding agent is taken, a small amount of expanding agent is slowly added into a mixture of flake graphite and concentrated sulfuric acid (namely, a fluffy graphite mixture in the first step) for many times, the mixture is continuously stirred in the adding process, and after the mixture is uniformly mixed, the system is controlled to stand and react for a period of time under a certain temperature condition, so that the rough expanded graphite with high expansion rate is directly obtained. Wherein, the mass ratio of the graphite to the expanding agent can be 1: 3 to 12, for example 1: 5. 1: 8. 1: 10. 1: 11. wherein, the expanding agent can be one or more of sodium percarbonate and ammonium bicarbonate. For example, the expansion agent is sodium percarbonate.
The third step: and (3) adding a stripping aid into the rough high-expansion-rate expanded graphite prepared in the second step, and carrying out stripping treatment to obtain a rough large-sheet-diameter graphene suspension. Here, the temperature at the time of the peeling treatment may be 20 to 90 ℃, for example, 45 ℃. If the reaction temperature is too high, exfoliation may not be complete and damage may be caused to the graphene structure. The stripping time may be 1-12 h, for example 4 h. Here, the stripping aid may be one or more of sodium percarbonate, ammonium bicarbonate and concentrated sulfuric acid. For example, the stripping agent is sodium percarbonate and concentrated sulfuric acid, the adding ratio of the sodium percarbonate to the graphite to the expanding agent is 1: 0.5-1 g/g, and the adding ratio of the concentrated sulfuric acid in the third step to the adding of the concentrated sulfuric acid in the first step is 1: 2-5 ml/ml. The stripping treatment equipment can comprise a high-speed mechanical stirrer, an ultrasonic disperser or a high-speed dispersing homogenizer, and the stripping treatment time can be 1-12 h.

The fifth step: and filtering, washing and drying the large-sheet-diameter refined graphene dispersion liquid to obtain the large-sheet-diameter high-conductivity graphene. And filtering, washing and drying the obtained refined large-sheet-diameter graphene suspension to obtain large-sheet-diameter high-conductivity graphene. The graphene suspension liquid is washed to be nearly neutral, the generated waste liquid is neutralized by a calcareous raw material and then discharged after reaching the standard, and the precipitate is used as a building material raw material; and freeze drying for 48 hours to obtain the large-sheet-diameter high-conductivity graphene powder.
In the present exemplary embodiment, the adding of the graphite, the concentrated sulfuric acid, and the swelling agent into the reaction vessel may include: firstly adding graphite or concentrated sulfuric acid, and then adding an expanding agent while stirring; the stirring speed can be 300-1000 r/min, such as 500r/min, 700r/min, 900 r/min. The stirring time can be 2-20 min. The purpose of mixing graphite with concentrated sulfuric acid is to provide an acidic environment for the subsequent expansion process, and to react with the expanding agent to promote the expansion process. On the other hand, the graphite is acidified, so that the graphite edge is intercalated, and the graphite interlayer is easier to open.
Further, the obtained high expansion rate expanded graphite can be vermiform, and the expansion volume can be 100-550 mL/g.
In the exemplary embodiment, the settling separation can be performed in a centrifuge, the centrifuge rotation speed can be 3000-8000 rpm, the centrifuge time can be 3-10 min, and the solid content of the refined large-sheet-diameter graphene dispersion can be 55-85%.

In the exemplary embodiment, the number of graphene layers may be 1 to 10, and the content of the few-layer graphene (the number of graphene layers is less than or equal to 5) may be more than 75%. The graphene product has more excellent conductivity when the content of the few-layer graphene in the graphene product is higher, and has better application prospect in the field of subsequent preparation of the functionalized composite coating.
In the exemplary embodiment, the graphite raw material can be 50-100 mesh flake powder, and the carbon content in the graphite can reach more than 85%. Here, the larger the sheet diameter of graphite, the larger the expansion volume thereof; the carbon content of graphite affects its expansion effect, and too much impurities consume reagents during the reaction, thereby reducing the expansion volume.
In the second exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the graphene having a large sheet diameter and high conductivity may be prepared by the preparation method described in the first exemplary embodiment above.
In the exemplary embodiment, the graphene with the sheet diameter of 5-25 μm and the sheet diameter of more than 10 μm may be contained in the total graphene by more than 70%, and the conductivity of the graphene may be 3.42 × 10 2 ~1.25×10 5 S/m。

For a better understanding of the invention, the following further illustrates the invention in connection with specific examples 1, 2, 3, but the invention is not limited to the following examples only.

(4) And placing the obtained rough large-sheet-diameter graphene suspension in a centrifuge for sedimentation separation to obtain a refined large-sheet-diameter graphene dispersion liquid.
(5) And after the reaction is finished, taking ultrapure water to wash the reaction product to be neutral, filtering, and freeze-drying the product for 48 hours to obtain the large-sheet-diameter high-conductivity graphene powder.
FIG. 1 is a Raman spectrum of raw graphite; FIG. 2 is a scanning electron micrograph (200X) of the starting graphite. As can be seen from fig. 1 and 2, the raw material graphite has a dense layered structure and a smooth surface. Fig. 3 is a raman spectrum of the large-sheet-diameter highly conductive graphene prepared in example 1, and as can be seen from a comparison of fig. 1 and fig. 3, the raman spectrum of the graphene prepared in example 1 has a slightly enhanced D-peak intensity compared to that of the raw material graphite. FIG. 4 is a scanning electron micrograph (1.0KX) of graphene prepared in example 1, and it is found that, as compared with the raw graphite in FIG. 2, the graphite sheets were exfoliated to obtain graphene having a smaller number of layers, the number of graphene sheets having a diameter of 10 to 25 μm was about 76%, and the electrical conductivity was 5.27X 10 4 S/m。
Example 2
(1) Same as in example 1.
(2) Weighing 1.6g of sodium percarbonate, slowly adding the sodium percarbonate into a reaction kettle, uniformly stirring, and standing in a constant-temperature water bath at 85 ℃ for reaction for 2 hours to obtain the expanded graphite.

Fig. 6 is a scanning electron micrograph (100X) of an intermediate expanded graphite prepared in example 2. As can be seen from FIG. 6, the expanded graphite is in the form of loose worms, and the graphite sheets are bent to form irregular holes at the edges and increase the surface wrinkles of the sheets. This is because the decomposition of sodium percarbonate releases gas into the graphite layers, and the increased pressure of the gas generates thrust, overcoming the van der waals forces between the layers, causing the graphite to expand rapidly in the c-axis direction. Fig. 7 is a scanning electron micrograph (2.0KX) of the large-sheet-diameter highly conductive graphene prepared in example 2. As can be seen from fig. 7, the prepared graphene sample has reduced wrinkles, a smooth and flat surface, and is in the form of a transparent gauze. And part of samples are stacked, and the obtained sample is light and thin in sheet layer and few in layer number. The method proves that the expanded graphite is completely stripped into graphene, and the sodium percarbonate can effectively strip the expanded graphite in a strong acid environment.

(5) And after the reaction is finished, taking ultrapure water to wash the reaction product to be neutral, filtering, and freeze-drying the product for 48 hours to obtain the large-sheet-diameter high-conductivity graphene powder.

Fig. 9 is a scanning electron micrograph (2.0KX) of the large-sheet-diameter high-conductivity graphene prepared in example 3, and compared with fig. 7, the obtained graphene has a difference in the thickness of the sheet layer and the size of the sheet diameter, because the difference in the degree of expansion at the previous stage causes the difference in the peeling effect. It can be seen that the larger the expansion volume of the precursor expanded graphite, the thinner the graphene sheet layer obtained by exfoliation and the larger the sheet diameter. The obtained graphene has the number of the sheet diameter of 10-25 mu m accounting for 83 percent and the conductivity of 6.59 multiplied by 10 4 S/m。
