Abstract

Reduced graphene oxide, RGO (also called chemically modified graphene, CMG) was synthesized by a hydrothermal method, with graphite oxide (GO), prepared by using improved hummer method at different temperatures, served as the raw material. Structural and morphological studies indicate the degree of reduction is dependent on the temperature, which is also verified by Raman analysis. The variation in interlayer distance and the intensity ratio of the D to G Raman modes (ID/IG)indicates higher reaction temperature can accelerate more reduction of GO and also (I2D/IG) ratio indicate the reduction in number of graphene layers. The reduction material is characterization by Raman spectroscopy.
