Abstract
Graphene has many excellent properties in mechanical strength, electrical conductivity, optical transparency and thermal conductivity. The basic unit of graphene is made of hexagonal ring of carbon shape. The production of graphene in large amounts can be done using conventional ways such as chemical vapour deposition (CVD). However, the cost production is very high due to high reaction temperature. Therefore, electrochemical exfoliation could become a promising method in future because of its simple, low cost and large-scale production. Electrochemical method is performed in the manner by connecting the graphite rod to the positive terminal (anode) while the copper sheet is connected to the negative terminal (cathode) and both of were immersed into electrolyte with a distance between them. Then, due to the potential difference, the exfoliation of graphite into graphene sheets occurs. X-Ray Diffraction revealed that high amount of exfoliated graphene sheets was synthesized successfully where the peak was seen at approximately 26.60°. Fourier Transform Infrared confirmed the synthesized of graphene oxide (GO) sheets (by using H2SO4 as electrolyte) shows the higher intensity of O-H band because of strongest oxidation behaviour of H2SO4 acid among all electrolytes used in experiment. Besides. SEM images show that the morphologies of the exfoliated graphene sheets have stacked, flaky-like, wrinkled and crumpled structures.
