Graphene Oxide Reduced and Dispersed by Polysaccharide

Article Preview

Abstract:

An green method to reduce graphene oxide (RGO) was developed by using polysaccharide as both a reducing agent and a stabilizing agent. The RGO was characterized and the factors that affect the reduction of graphene oxide (GO) were explored to obtain optimum reaction conditions. Analysis shows that GO can be reduced at a comparatively low temperature by polysaccharide and forms a stable RGO aqueous dispersion owing to the dispersion of polysaccharide. This approach provides a new green method for GO reduction that has great value for graphene applications.
