Abstract

A packaging material or flexible medical tubing containing a modified graphite oxide material, which is a thermally exfoliated graphite oxide with a surface area of from about 300 m 2 /g to 2600 m 2 /g.

Claims (12)

1. A packaging material, comprising a modified graphite oxide material, comprising thermally exfoliated graphite oxide having a surface area of from about 300 m 2 /g to 2600 m 2 /g.

2. The packaging material of claim 1 , wherein the thermally exfoliated graphite oxide has a surface area of from about 400 m 2 /g to 2600 m 2 /g.

3. The packaging material of claim 1 , wherein the thermally exfoliated graphite oxide has a surface area of from about 500 m 2 /g to 2600 m 2 /g.

4. The packaging material of claim 1 , wherein the thermally exfoliated graphite oxide has a bulk density of from about 40 kg/m 3 to 0.1 kg/m 3 .

5. The packaging material of claim 1 , wherein the thermally exfoliated graphite oxide has a C/O ratio of from about 60/40 to 95/5.

6. The packaging material of claim 1 , wherein the thermally exfoliated graphite oxide has a C/O ratio of from about 65/35 to 85/15.

7. A flexible medical tube, comprising a modified graphite oxide material, comprising thermally exfoliated graphite oxide having a surface area of from about 300 m 2 /g to 2600 m 2 /g.

8. The flexible medical tube of claim 7 , wherein the thermally exfoliated graphite oxide has a surface area of from about 400 m 2 /g to 2600 m 2 /g.

9. The flexible medical tube of claim 7 , wherein the thermally exfoliated graphite oxide has a surface area of from about 500 m 2 /g to 2600 m 2 /g.

10. The flexible medical tube of claim 7 , wherein the thermally exfoliated graphite oxide has a bulk density of from about 40 kg/m 3 to 0.1 kg/m 3 .

11. The flexible medical tube of claim 7 , wherein the thermally exfoliated graphite oxide has a C/O ratio of from about 60/40 to 95/5.

12. The flexible medical tube of claim 7 , wherein the thermally exfoliated graphite oxide has a C/O ratio of from about 65/35 to 85/15.
