A facile and general approach for production of nanoscrolls with high-yield from two-dimensional nanosheets.

ABSTRACT: Nanoscrolls (NSs) assembled from two-dimensional nanosheets have emerged as a novel type of one-dimensional nanomaterials because of their unique topological features and properties. The scale-up preparation of the NSs is crucial for their foundational and applied research. Herein, we report a general and straightforward approach for efficiently converting two-dimensional nanosheets into the NSs with high yield. We demonstrated the converting process by illustrating the formation of the graphene nanoscrolls through characterizing their morphology and structure using a scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, Raman spectra, and X-ray diffraction spectra. The graphene sheets with a few-lay number were converted immediately and entirely into the graphene nanoscrolls whe
