Abstract

A method for preparing large graphene sheets in large scale includes steps of: under a mild condition, processing graphite powders with intercalation through an acid and an oxidant; washing away metal ions and inorganic ions in the graphite powders with dilute hydrochloric acid, then filtering and drying; and, finally processing with a heat treatment. The present invention breaks through a series of bottlenecks restricting an efficient preparation of graphene that result from a traditional method of using large amounts of deionized water to wash graphite oxide to be neutral, and easily realizes a batch production. A radial scale of the prepared graphene sheets is distributed from 20 um to 200 um.
