Chapter 6 – Production of Few Layer Graphene in Aqueous Media for Biological Studies magnitude lower at each step, suggesting dialysis is a controlled solvent exchange process suitable for preparation of aqueous graphene dispersions. 6.2.4. Characterisation of dialysed graphene The quality of the 0.1 v/v% dialysed graphene dispersions was characterised using AFM, Raman spectroscopy and XRD. AFM statistical analysis was carried out on graphene flakes spray-deposited onto mica substrates. Figure 6.6 shows representative AFM scans (see Appendix 9.3 for more AFM scans), with histograms of the length of flakes (𝐿𝐴𝐹𝑀) and the number of layers per flake (𝑁). The mean length of flakes (γ€ˆπΏπ΄πΉπ‘€γ€‰) was around 140 Β± 70 nm and 170 Β± 80 nm for the 0.1 v/v% dialysed G/DMF and G/NMP dispersions, respectively. The γ€ˆπΏπ΄πΉπ‘€γ€‰ obtained was similar to that of the starting 100 v/v% dispersions. Similar to the starting dispersions, the mean number of layers per flake (γ€ˆπ‘γ€‰) for 0.1 v/v% dialysed G/DMF and G/NMP dispersions remained around 4.5 Β± 2.3 and 4.3 Β± 1.9, respectively. However, a ~7 % increase in 𝑁>8⁄𝑁𝑇 compared to the starting dispersions was observed, indicating a possible slight increase in the degree of aggregation in the dialysed dispersions. Nevertheless, 𝑁1⁄𝑁𝑇 and 𝑁1βˆ’5⁄𝑁𝑇 remained around ~9 % and ~67 %, respectively. 170
