Abstract

The article describes the process of liquid-phase shear exfoliation of graphite in a rotary apparatus with moving blades, in water and I-20A oil (Rosneft, Russia) used as a liquid. The linear dependence of the process intensity on the shear rate and graphite concentration in the initial suspension are established in the paper. To increase the share of graphene converted into graphene plates, it has been proposed to reduce periodically the concentration of graphene plates in suspension by adding pure liquid. It was found that the exfoliation rate of graphite is directly proportional to the concentration of graphite in the initial suspension and the rotor speed. The resulting graphene-containing oil-based suspension was used to modify greases.
