Hydrothermal Unzipping of Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes and Cutting of Graphene by Potassium Superoxide

The dual use of potassium superoxide (KO<sub>2</sub>) to unzip multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and cut graphene under hydrothermal conditions is described in this work. The KO<sub>2</sub>-assisted hydrothermal treatment was proven to be a high-yield method for forming g...
