Highly Compressible Macroporous Graphene Monoliths via an Improved Hydrothermal Process

Abstract

An improved hydrothermal process is developed to fabricate macroporous graphene monoliths (MGMs) using a soft template of organic droplets. The MGMs are constructed from closed-cell distorted spherical pores. This unique microstructure makes MGMs that have low weight densities, good electrical conductivities, and excellent elasticity with rapid recovery rates.
