Graphene Oxide Fabrication Using Modified Hummer’s Approach, then its Chemical Reduction to Obtain Reduced Graphene Oxide

This research describes how to synthesize graphene oxide following modified Hummer's technique, then its chemical reduction to produce reduced graphene oxide as a final graphene-like product.Due to its peculiar properties, graphene, a distinct carbon allotrope with an atom-thick structure, is regarded as a mysterious substance in the modern day.Because of its incredible electronic, mechanical, optical and thermal characteristics, it has attracted attention of researchers on a global scale.Recent developments have shown that graphenebased materials can significantly improve the properties of chemical sensors, nanocomposites, electrical and electronic equipment, optoelectronics, and energy storage devices.This study focuses on a modified synthesis of Graphene Oxide (GO), a crucial building block in the chemistry of graphene, and transforms graphene oxide back into reduced Graphene Oxide, a structure resembling 2D graphene.Electrochemical methods, XRD, and FTIR examinations provided proof that reduced graphene oxide was produced from graphene oxide, which was initially obtained from powder of graphite.
