Copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) were synthesized by chemical reduction using polyethylene glycol and ascorbic acid to suppress aggregation and oxidation, and were then incorporated into expanded graphite (EG) by a supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO₂)-assisted intercalation process. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the formation of metallic CuNPs, and dynamic light scattering (DLS) showed a particle size distribution of approximately 150–650 nm with a main peak near 350 nm. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) indicated that ethanol used as a co-solvent produced a more homogeneous distribution of Cu species within the expanded interlayer voids and porous regions of EG than isopropyl alcohol. Cross-sectional SEM/EDS analysis further showed Cu-containing particles distributed inside the composite film. After 14 days of air exposure at 25 °C and 40% relative humidity, only weak oxygen signals were detected from CuNPs embedded within EG, indicating improved oxidation stability. Laser flash analysis showed that the CuNPs/EG composite prepared using ethanol exhibited a through-plane thermal conductivity of 8.402 W/m·K, a 124.5% increase compared with pristine EG, while retaining an in-plane thermal conductivity of 90.854 W/m·K. These results demonstrate that ethanol-assisted scCO₂ intercalation is an effective strategy for developing oxidation-stable CuNPs/EG composites with enhanced through-plane thermal transport.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":684,"journal":{"name":"Korean Journal of Chemical Engineering","volume":"43 13","pages":"3511 - 3526"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149190019","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
