Processes Webinar | Graphene Oxide: From Synthesis to Applications, 23 June 2026

Welcome from the webinar Chair:

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the editorial team of Processes and MDPI, it is my distinct pleasure to welcome you to our webinar, dedicated to the successful Special Issue “Graphene Oxide: From Synthesis to Applications”.

Graphene oxide is an essentially all-surface material whose remarkable physico-chemical, mechanical, and optical properties have unlocked a versatile application platform ranging from biomedical devices to energy storage and environmental remediation. This Special Issue has gathered several contributions covering the entire value chain of GO—from innovative synthesis routes to cutting-edge applications in energy storage and conversion, environmental remediation, membrane technologies, etc.

The webinar gathers researchers who have contributed to this collection. We will delve into key topics highlighted in the issue, such as the following:

The role of GO in enhancing electrochemical properties of ZnO for water splitting and sensing.
The surface chemistry of GO nanocomposites.
How the surface chemistry of GO nanocomposites is linked to advancement of charge storage applications.

Our goal is to provide insights into synergy-driven enhancement of material properties and we hope that this webinar will spark lively discussion, new ideas, and future partnerships.

We invite you to join us and take part in a moderated discussion with our speakers.

Welcome, and enjoy the webinar!

Kind regards,
Sonja Jovanović
Principal Research Fellow
