Research Progress on Graphene in Surface Engineering

tlooto Summary

Significant progress has been made in graphene preparation and potential applications including tissue engineering, antibacterial materials, transparent conductive films, and anticorrosion coatings.

Abstract

Graphene is a carbon nanomaterial composed of honeycomb structure with carbon atoms in sp2 hybridization.In the past decade,research on grapheme has become the hot topic in many fields,and significant progresses have been made in the preparation,characterization and potential applications of graphene.This review briefly summarizes the preparation methods of graphene and the potential application of graphene nano-film in tissue engineering,antibacterial materials,transparent conductive film and anticorrosion coating.As the"material of the future",the preparation and modification processes of graphene are constantly being improved,and graphene thin films will show vitality in surface engineering.
