What Are the Limitations of Liquid Phase Exfoliation?
Despite its advantages, LPE also has some limitations:
Yield: The yield of single-layer nanosheets can be relatively low compared to multi-layer sheets. Purity: The resulting dispersion may contain unexfoliated material and solvent impurities, requiring additional purification steps. Solvent Selection: Finding a suitable solvent that matches the surface energy of the material can be challenging.
