Carbon-based materials have gained significant attention in the field of energy storage due to their unique properties such as high surface area, excellent electrical conductivity, and chemical stability. Shale rock, a sedimentary rock composed mainly of clay minerals, can be a potential source for carbon-based materials. One of the main advantages of using carbon-doped shale rock nanoparticles in energy storage devices is their high specific surface area. The porous structure of these nanoparticles provides a large number of active sites for electrochemical reactions, allowing for efficient charge storage. Additionally, the presence of carbon in the nanoparticles enhances their electrical conductivity, enabling faster electron transfer during charge and discharge cycles. .This abstract focuses on the synthesis of shale rock nanoparticles using a chemical reduction method with HNO3, as well as the doping of graphene into these nanoparticles using the liquid phase exfoliation (LPE) method with propanol. The chemical reduction method involves the use of HNO3 as an oxidizing agent to break down the shale rock into smaller particles. This method offers several advantages, including simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and scalability. The HNO3 reacts with the shale rock, leading to the formation of nanoparticles through a redox reaction. The resulting shale rock nanoparticles exhibit enhanced surface area and reactivity, making them suitable for various applications. Graphene, a two-dimensional carbon allotrope, is known for its exceptional mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties. Doping graphene into shale rock nanoparticles can further enhance their properties and expand their potential applications. The liquid phase exfoliation (LPE) method with propanol is employed for this purpose. Propanol acts as a solvent that facilitates the exfoliation of graphene sheets from graphite and their dispersion into the shale rock nanoparticle suspension. The ultrasonic waves create shear forces that separate the graphene sheets from each other and disperse them uniformly within the nanoparticle suspension. The resulting graphene-doped shale rock nanoparticles exhibit improved conductivity, mechanical strength, and stability. The synthesized shale rock nanoparticles doped with graphene hold great promise in various fields such as energy storage, catalysis, environmental remediation, and electronics. Their increased surface area and unique properties make them suitable for applications such as super capacitors, sensors, adsorbents, and reinforcement materials and The synthesized carbon doped shale rock nanoparticles is dried and calcinated to remove
