Green Synthesis of Graphene from Graphite in Molten Salt Medium

Figure 1

Experimental setup. Reaction was performed inside a fixed bed reactor wrapped with a ceramic heating jacket. An Ar or N₂ gas tube was connected to a mass flow meter. Inert gas was adjusted by a mass flow meter located between the gas vessel and valve. Reaction temperature was controlled by the thermocouple placed into the fixed bed into the reactor.
