[Abstract]
Graphene oxide (GO) nanoscopic flakes contain in their structure both extended aromatic regions similar to graphene, and oxygenated functionalities. The co-existence of these structures makes GO an amphiphilic material, which can both be dispersed in water and self-assemble at oil-water and air-water interfaces. In this talk we explore how the self-assembly of GO flakes can be tuned by tuning GO hydrophilicity, and how this allows designing three-dimensional structures with different porosities and architectures that can be tailored for a range of applications, from tissue engineering to electrocatalysis.
