Spongy graphene as a highly efficient and recyclable sorbent |
|
|
| (a~b) Low magnified and high magnified images of spongy graphene, respectively. (c~e) Wettability for water and dodecane, respectively. |

| (a) Dynamic absorption of spongy graphene towards dodecane (intervals: 20 seconds). (b) Recyclability of spongy graphene for Toluene and Dodecane. Spongy graphene could be regenerated (>10 times) by heat treatment yielding the full release of adsorbates (>99%). (c) Absorption efficiency of spongy graphene. Spongy graphene shows highly efficient absorption of not only petroleum products and fats, but also common toxic solvents. |
