- Abstract
Stainless steel 316L and duplex stainless steel 2507 were exposed to hydrocarbons under low vacuum and high temperatures in order to generate graphene via chemical vapour deposition (CVD) methodologies. Raman spectroscopy identified that oxidation was present, with no carbon based compounds being formed. Through electrochemical characterisations it was found that this oxidation was severely detrimental compared to untreated steels, suggesting a need for changed conditions when coating graphene on stainless steels via CVD. The effects of graphene as a uniform coating with regards to stainless steels is still required.
