Avenue to Facile Medium-Scale Production of Graphene Quantum Dots and Graphene Nanosheets

Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) and graphene nanosheets (GNs) have attracted significant attention for a wide range of applications due to their unique physicochemical properties. Numerous top-down and bottom-up methods for GQDs/GNs have been reported, however they are limited to the small-scale preparation and necessity for the use of harsh solvents, complicated synthetic processes and long reaction time [2]. Mechanochemistry is emerging as an environmentally benign alternative for medium and large-scale graphene production, fulfilling principles of Green Chemistry [3]. Herein we describe several different routes for a single and few layer GQDs and GNs medium- scale production and its potential application in printable conductive inks.
