The Advanced Carbon Division at the Institute of Metal Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, is a research pioneer on graphene in China, and mainly focuses on the synthesis of graphene materials and their applications such as energy storage, functional coatings, composites, and flexible optoelectronics. It has developed a novel method to produce high-quality graphene materials in a large quantity and at low cost [1], realized CVD growth of millimeter-size graphene single crystals [2,3], large-area transparent conductive films [4] and highly conductive three-dimensional interconnected graphene networks [5]. It has extensively explored the applications of these materials in lithium ion batteries [6-8], lithium sulfur batteries [9], supercapacitors [10-12], thermal management, conductive inks, anti-corrosion coatings, and composites. In addition to fundamental research, it has also made great efforts to industrialize and commercialize graphene materials in collaboration with companies, and the large-scale production of graphene is now an industrial reality.
