Hydrophobic Graphene Oxide Sponge (GOS) for Efficent Oil Separation and C-C Coupling Reaction

Detailed Technology Description: Researchersat the University of Delaware are proposing a novel method to synthesize asuperoleaphilic graphene oxide sponge. Treatment of improved graphene oxidewithout a cross-linker produces a highly selective 3D carbon framework whichfacilitates improved absorption of deoxygenated fuel molecules from water. Thismaterial also possesses high activity for C-C coupling which imparts severalbenefits. This method provides a sustainable solution to absorption andseparation difficulties. Figure: The figure depicts the selective absorption of oil by the sponge
