摘要：

The carbon based nanomaterial graphene oxide is emerged as an alternate path for the synthesis of graphene. From the structural point of view, graphene oxide is similar to that of graphene sheet with the oxygen-containing groups on its base which can be removed easily by dissolving it in water or other water like solvents. There are a numbers of methods reported in literature for the synthesis of graphene oxide, which satisfies its own pros and cons. Here in the present work, we have reported successfully the employment of an easy and important method known as the improved or modified version of Hummers' method for the synthesis of graphene oxide. The formation of graphene oxide in the experimentation is confirmed by the appearance of strong characteristic peak of graphene oxide at the two theta value of 9.08 0 and oxygen containing functional groups during the XRD and FTIR characterization, respectively.
