A graphene material was synthesized and investigated by atomic force microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction analysis. It was shown that unlike activated carbon the obtained material exhibits catalytic activity in the hydrogenation of ethylene at temperatures in the range of 200-500 °C.
