Existing methods of producing high quality graphene/graphite oxides are generally accomplished by exfoliating graphite into flakes and oxidizing the graphite flakes with strong oxidizers under extreme conditions and require careful purification. The oxidizers are typically strong acids used in high concentrations at elevated temperatures requiring complicated purification processes to yield oxidized graphene/sheets. The existing processes can cost up to $12,000/gram. This invention uses a mild oxidant combined with mechanical processing where the sole products are oxidized graphite/graphene and water without the need for further purification.

A variety of inorganic-organic hybrid materials and various methods for preparing and using the same are described. The hybrid materials are graphene or graphitic materials populated with organic molecules and may have a variety of surface defects, pits or three-dimensional architecture, thereby increasing the surface area of the material. The hybrid materials may take the form of three dimensional graphene nanosheets (3D GNS). If the organic molecules are enantiospecific molecules, the hybrid materials can be used for chiral separation of racemic mixtures.

A method for manufacturing a flexible graphene electrically conductive film includes (1) providing a base and forming a graphene layer on a surface of the base; (2) providing polyvinyl alcohol, dissolving polyvinyl alcohol in water and heating to form a colloidal solution, which after cooling, forms a polyvinyl alcohol colloidal solution; and coating the polyvinyl alcohol colloidal solution on a surface of the graphene layer and drying so as to form a supporting layer on the surface of the graphene layer; (3) removing the base from the graphene layer; and (4) dissolving the supporting layer on the graphene layer in water so as to obtain a flexible graphene electrically conductive film that is free of surface residue.
