Abstract:

Graphene structure was observed in biochar based carbon materials, the catalytic mechanism of forming graphene layers was investigated. Then Bio-renewablegraphene was produced from low cost biomass with a facile synthesis method. The renewablegrapheneis an extremely attractive material for energy storage due to the high specific capacitance andlow cost. The transmissionelectron microscopy results demonstrate crumplednanosheets and few-layer graphene nanostructure.
