There is an increasing interest in looking for alternative ways to employ this waste to address this overload. Here, we show the efficient use of mango peels as a noncost carbon source for the synthesis of graphene. We demonstrate for the first time the synthesis of graphene on Cu substrates from mango peels, a biomass rich in pectin. It is observed that plasma presence is essential for the growth of gra ...[more]
