Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to anode particles coated with lithium, and methods of producing the same. In some aspects, a method can include melting lithium and a first plurality of graphene flakes together to form a suspension, coating an anode particle with the suspension to form a lithiated particle, the anode particle coated with a second plurality of graphene flakes, and applying a pressure to the lithiated particle. In some embodiments, the method can include heating the lithiated particle. Heating and application of pressure can facilitate diffusion of lithium toward a center region of the lithiated particle. In some embodiments, the method can further include coating the anode particle with the second plurality of graphene flakes. In some embodiments, the anode particle can include silicon, a silicon alloy, silicon oxide, and/or silicon dioxide.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate generally to the large scale production of functionalized graphene. In some embodiments, a method for producing functionalized graphene includes combining a crystalline graphite with a first electrolyte solution that includes at least one of a metal hydroxide salt, an oxidizer, and a surfactant. The crystalline graphite is then milled in the presence of the first electrolyte solution for a first time period to produce a thinned intermediate material. The thinned intermediate material is combined with a second electrolyte solution that includes a strong oxidizer and at least one of a metal hydroxide salt, a weak oxidizer, and a surfactant. The thinned intermediate material is then milled in the presence of the second electrolyte solution for a second time period to produce functionalized graphene.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate generally to the production of graphene/polymer compounds. In some embodiments, a method for producing graphene/polymer compounds includes compounding graphene nanoflakes with non-conductive polymer hosts via electrospray coating techniques, taking advantage of the highly electrostatically chargeable properties of graphene to de-agglomerate and further exfoliate the graphene nanoflakes in-situ, and providing uniform and well-dispersed graphene nanoflake coating on various non-conductive polymer hosts, such as polymer fine particles, pellets, fibers, fabrics, non-woven, film, and formed articles. In some embodiments, the deposition of the graphene nanoflakes onto the hosts may be performed in combination with other components, such as but not limited to metal oxides and polymers. The method can be a batch or a continuous process, and is suitable for large scale production of graphene coated materials such as graphene/polymer compound, which can be further processed by, for example, extrusion, compression molding, or injection molding, to yield formed articles.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate generally to large scale synthesis of thinned graphite and in particular, few layers of graphene sheets and graphene-graphite composites. In some embodiments, a method for producing thinned crystalline graphite from precursor crystalline graphite using wet ball milling processes is disclosed herein. The method includes transferring crystalline graphite into a ball milling vessel that includes a grinding media. A first and a second solvent are transferred into the ball milling vessel and the ball milling vessel is rotated to cause the shearing of layers of the crystalline graphite to produce thinned crystalline graphite.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to non-oxidized graphene-based anti-viral surfaces, and methods of producing the same. In some embodiments, a method of forming an anti-viral surface can include mixing a non-oxidized edge-functionalized graphene with a catalyst and a thermoset material to form a mixture, applying a high-shear mixing process to the mixture to form a mixed liquid, and coating the mixed liquid onto a base surface to form the anti-viral surface. In some embodiments, the method can further include chemically treating the graphene to produce the non-oxidized edge-functionalized graphene. In some embodiments, the thermoset material can include a thermoset matrix. In some embodiments, the method can include dispersing the non-oxidized edge-functionalized graphene into the thermoset matrix via the high-shear mixing. In some embodiments, dispersing the non-oxidized edge-functionalized graphene into the thermoset matrix can be via a ball mill, a high-shear mixer, and/or a homogenizer.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate generally to systems and methods for manufacturing a master batch with a graphitic material dispersed in a polymer matrix. In some embodiments, a method for manufacturing the master batch can include combining the graphitic material with a polymer, adding a supercritical fluid to the mixture, and depressurizing the supercritical fluid to remove the supercritical fluid. In some embodiments, the method includes mixing the graphitic material and the polymer for a first time period to form a first mixture and transferring the supercritical fluid to the first mixture to form a second mixture. In some embodiments, the method includes mixing the second mixture for a second time period and depressurizing the second mixture to allow the supercritical fluid to transition to a gas phase.
