▎ 摘  要

Graphene oxide (GO) sheets were synthesized by modified Hummers method. Microwave hydrothermal reactor (MHR) was applied to reduce graphene oxide. Different temperatures 50 and 180A degrees C were applied to fabricate four samples with 4, 10, 25 and 60 min exposure times. The deoxygenation of the GO sheets after exposure to MHR was revealed by using UV-visible, Fourier transform infrared, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Raman spectroscopy. Based on XPS analysis, the O/C ratio of the GO sheets decreased from 49 to 17% after exposure to MHR. On the other hand, characterization by TGA illustrated that the O/C ratio of the GO dramatically decreases after exposure of MHR and reached from 37 to 7%. Raman spectroscopy demonstrated that there was no increase in defects' density after reduction. The results confirmed that sample with 180A degrees C exposure temperature and 60 min exposure time was reduced completely. Therefore this can help to advance using MHR as the green technique of GO reduction.
