Abstract
We report an experimental study of polymerized membranes using graphite oxide (GO) suspension. Dry samples of GO are analyzed using electron microscopy and electron diffraction. They are found to be composed of thin solid membranes. The conformation of these membranes in solution is investigated using light scattering and is found to be fractal.Keywords
