Graphene Oxide Water Dispersion – Purity: 99.5+%, GO: 0.8 wt%, Dark Brown Liquid
Graphene Oxide (GO) is the oxidized form of graphene nanoplatelets, commonly used as a precursor for producing reduced graphene through chemical or physical treatments. Synthesized by the chemical exfoliation of graphite, graphene oxide exhibits semiconducting properties, making it highly valuable for the electronics industry. GO is hydrophilic and can be easily dispersed in water, forming stable dispersions composed of sheets ranging from a few hundred nanometers to several micrometers. For applications requiring high uniformity and cost-efficiency, Nanografi provides premium-quality Graphene Oxide Water Dispersion in bulk quantities.

Applications
- Graphene oxide is produced by treating graphite with strong oxidizers, resulting in a compound of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen.
- The oxidized material retains the layered structure of graphite but with expanded interlayer spacing, enabling the production of monomolecular sheets in water.
- GO sheets are used to manufacture high-strength paper-like materials, membranes, thin films, and composites.
- Initially valued as an intermediate for graphene production, GO can be chemically reduced to graphene, although the resulting material may retain some defects that can be advantageous for certain applications.
- Applications span electronics, advanced composites, filtration, coatings, and research in materials science.
