Selective removal of hydroxyl groups from graphene oxide by Chua, Chun Kiang, Pumera, Martin

“…Numerous methods starting from various reducing agents have been developed to obtain near-pristine graphene sheets. However, most of the reducing agents are not mechanistically supported by classical organic chemistry knowledge and of those that are supported, they are only theoretically capable of, at most, reducing oxygen-containing groups on graphene oxide to hydroxyl groups. …”

Lithium intercalation compound dramatically influences the electrochemical properties of exfoliated MoS2 by Ambrosi, Adriano, Sofer, Zdeněk, Pumera, Martin

“…MoS2 and other transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have recently gained a renewed interest due to the interesting electronic, catalytic, and mechanical properties which they possess when down-sized to single or few layer sheets. Exfoliation of the bulk multilayer structure can be achieved by a preliminary chemical Li intercalation followed by the exfoliation due to the reaction of Li with water. …”
