Chemically reduced graphite oxide

GO powder was added to a flask containing purified water (3 mg mL ). Immediately after addition, hydrazine monohydrate (1 pL for 3 mg of GO) was added to the mixture and the flask was immersed into an oil bath at 80 °C. After additional stirring for 12 h, the resulting black powder was filtered and dried to get chemically reduced graphite oxide (RGO). 

Spin-coated or spray-deposited or filtered and subsequently reduced back to defect-decorated graphene (actually called reduced graphite oxide, RGO), either chemically (e.g., using hydrazine hydrate [63]) or thermally [64], Note that RGO is an ideal material since there is no need for a high crystalline quality graphene...

Ultrasonic exfoliation of graphite oxide and subsequent chemical reduction has been used to prepare reduced graphene oxide (rGO) [17]. This is a viable method for... 

F igure 1.15 shows FTIR spectra of graphite, graphene oxide and chemically reduced graphene. It is clearly seen that no significant peak is detectable in graphite while, the presence of different type of oxygen functionalities...
