Application of Graphene-Based Materials.

This Topic on the "Application of Graphene-Based Materials", which consists of a total of twenty-six articles, including two review articles, written by research groups of experts in the field, considers the most recent research and trends on the synthesis and characterization of graphene-based materials, including nanohybrids, intended for a vast array of high-demanding technological applications, namely batteries/fuel cells, aerogels, laser technology, sensors, electronic/magnetic devices, catalysts, etc. 36432228 11 Rodríguez-Pastor I., López-Pérez A., Romero-Sánchez M.D., Pérez J.M., Fernández I., Martin-Gullon I. Effective Method for a Graphene Oxide with Impressive Selectivity in Carboxyl Groups. Taking advantage of the particular structure of aerogels and, hence, possible highly efficient adsorption capabilities, Jin and co-workers [[9]] developed bionanocomposite aerogels containing graphene oxide for the removal of dyes, specifically methylene blue, from wastewater. Interestingly, they were able to create a gradient-like open-cell graphene aerogel with an extremely high microwave absorption value of 62.6 dB only using 0.53 wt% graphene, which they explained based on a multiple reflection effect due to the open-cell structure and well-matched impedance due to its gradient structure.
