Strong and Weak GO Flakes can be Combined to Produce Better GO Paper

According to presumptions, developing a super-strong material from nano-scale building blocks requires the highest quality building blocks to start with. However, that is wrong—at least when researchers work with “flakes” of graphene oxide (GO).
