| dc.description.abstract | Copyright © 2021 The Author(s). Ultrasound-assisted liquid-phase exfoliation is a promising method for manufacturing two-dimensional materials. Understanding the effect of ultrasonication parameters such as the temperature and input power on the developed pressure field is pivotal for optimization of the process. Limited research has been carried out to determine the optimal temperature for exfoliation, with some data generating disputed results. Simply maximizing the sonication power does not necessarily produce a higher yield because of shielding. In this study, a high-temperature calibrated cavitometer was used to measure the acoustic pressure generated in different graphite solutions in deionized water at various temperatures (from 10°C to 70°C) and input power conditions (from 20% to 100%). In addition, high-speed optical imaging provided insight on the shock wave generation from transient bubble collapses under different sonication conditions. The optimal sono-exfoliation parameters were determined to be 20% input power at 10°C for graphite flake solution, and 100% input power at 40°C to 50°C for graphite powder solution. | en_US |
