Functionally graded materials (FGMs) are a class of innovative materials designed for needs
that conventional composite materials cannot provide. Potential application areas such as …

Few-layered graphene (FLG) was produced via substrate-free direct current arc discharge
between pure graphite electrodes in an originally designed reactor chamber. Previously …

Large-scale synthesis of high-quality graphene sheets is essential for their development
from the laboratory to commercial applications. In this work, we report a large-scale …

A novel atmospheric pressure non-thermal plasma, ie, rotating gliding arc (RGA), is
developed to upgrade coal bed methane (CBM) into hydrogen and carbon aerosol …

Graphene nanosheets were produced by electrical explosion of high-purity graphite sticks in
distilled water at room temperature. The as-prepared samples were characterized by various …

A method for transforming carbonate into graphene using shock-wave loading is presented
in this paper. Multilayer graphene was synthesized by impacting mixtures of calcium …

Here, we report synthesis and in situ passivation of aluminum nanoparticles using thermal
plasma reactor. Both air and palmitc acid passivation was carried out during the synthesis in …

Products of three carbon phases were synthesized by the pyrolysis of ethylene using a
magnetically rotating arc under atmospheric pressure; the products thus produced were …

We report a novel method to reduce layer number and structural defects of few-layer
graphene (FLG) in He/H 2 arc discharge via rapid cooling treatment. By adjusting the …

This chapter describes various state-of-the-art fabrication routes for high-quality graphene
included: chemical vapour deposition (CVD), mechanical exfoliation, chemical exfoliation …
