Abstract: The promising and extraordinary properties of graphene have attracted significant interest, making graphene an alternative to replace many traditional materials for many applications, particularly in conductive ink for the fabrication of flexible electronics.
The unique physicochemical properties of graphene, associated with the presence of a highly mobile electron shell in it, which provides high electrical conductivity, theoretically indicate that any molecule capable of acting as an electron donor or acceptor can, upon contact with the graphene surface, lead to a change in electrical resistance [1].
