Tuning Colloidal Stability and Photothermal Conversion Efficiency of Graphite Nanofluids via Anionic‐Nonionic Surfactant Engineering

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Graphite nanofluids were stabilized using a mixed SDS/Tween 80 surfactant system. The optimized formulation exhibited enhanced colloidal stability, red‐shifted UV–Vis absorption, and improved photothermal conversion under solar irradiation. Achieving stable dispersion of graphite flakes (GFs) in aqueous media remains a critical challenge in developing ...
