Universal ultrafast sandpaper assisting rubbing method for room temperature fabrication of two-dimensional nanosheets directly on flexible polymer substrate

In this letter, a universal ultrafast sandpaper assisting rubbing method was proposed to fabricate two-dimensional nanosheets (graphene, hexagonal boron nitride, tungsten disulfide, molybdenum disulfide) directly on flexible polymer substrate under room temperature. By two steps of rubbing progresses totally within 2 min, raw materials could be evolved to be thinner and to be attached onto polymer substrate. The final products showed high surface stability, which would be very useful during applications, and the physical mechanisms of surface stability were discussed. The micro-morphology evolutions of two-dimensional powders and sandpapers were tested to study the physical mechanisms of the method.
