Ngenxa yamaqembu asebenzayo aqukethe umoya-mpilo ocebile kanye nokusebenza kabusha okuphezulu, i-graphene oxide ingakwazi ukuhlangabezana nezidingo zamasayithi asebenza kakhulu kanye nokuhambisana okuhle kobuso emikhakheni yohlelo lokusebenza njenge-catalysis, nanocomposites nokugcinwa kwamandla.

Ucwaningo luthole ukuthi i-GO ikhombisa ukusebenza kahle komjikelezo uma isetshenziswa njengezinto ezisetshenziswa yi-electrode kumabhethri e-Na-ion. Ama-athomu e-H kanye ne-O ku-graphene oxide angavimbela ngempumelelo ukupakishwa kabusha kwamashidi, kwenze ukuhlukana kwamashidi kube kukhulu ngokwanele ukuvumela ukuhlangana ngokushesha futhi ukukhishwa kwe-sodium ions. Isetshenziswa njengento engalungile ye-electrode yebhethri ye-ion ye-sodium, futhi kutholakala ukuthi izikhathi zokushaja nokukhipha zingadlula izikhathi eziyi-1000 kolunye uhlobo lwe-electrolyte.
