A protocol for size separation of nanographenes

Abstract

Top-down methods are convenient preparative methods for nanographenes, although the products consist of graphene fragments with a broad size distribution. We show that a combination of dialysis membranes (50, 25, 15, 8, and 2 kD) can conveniently separate nanographenes into five size distributions. The separated nanographenes can be employed as starting materials for carbon-based functional materials.
