A method for manufacturing graphene is disclosed, which comprises the following steps: putting graphite material and an organic solvent, a surfactant, or a combination thereof in a reaction tank and introducing a supercritical fluid in the reaction tank to allow the organic solvent, the surfactant, or the combination thereof to dissolve in the supercritical fluid and to permeate into the graphite material; and removing the supercritical fluid by depressurization to form graphene. The method of the present invention has simple steps and reduced consumption of manufacturing time, and also can promote the quality of the resultant graphene in large-scale manufacturing.

The present invention discloses a two-stage process for preparing functionalized magnetizable microspheres. The first stage includes forming an inner shell of styrene polymer or styrene copolymer around magnetizable nano particles having a monolayer of a non-water-soluble dispersing agent coated thereon. The second stage includes forming an outer shell of styrene polymer or styrene copolymer with sulfate (SO) bounded thereto around the inner shell by free radical polymerization. Preferably, nano particles of a noble metal are deposited on the surface of the outer shell. The magnetizable microspheres prepared by the process of the present invention have a size of 100-1000 nm, and the thickness ratio of the inner shell to the outer shell ranges from 10:1 to 1:10.

A method for metallizing a surface of substrates is disclosed. Particularly, nonhomogeneous heating deposition occurs by setting the surface and the heater in an electroless plating reactor at different temperatures. Moreover, an adjustable gap is defined between the substrate being metalized and heating source board. The deposit can securely adhere to the surface of the substrate for gap creates and activates metallic nanoparticles, which possess higher activity and bonding strength to the surface. Accordingly, metallization of the surface of the substrate can be easily achieved without using precious metals and carcinogenic materials.
