Synthesis and characterization of reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite

Abstract

Graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) has demonstrated a broad range of applications. Graphene oxide (GO) prepared by a modified Hummer's method from purified graphite. Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and Linear sweep voltammetry (LSV). FTIR for chemical interaction, FESEM confirms the change in surface morphology and cyclic voltammetry of potential window range between -4 to 4 Vat a different scan rate. The linear sweep voltammetry of current increase with applied voltage. This rGO doped cobalt oxide composite is suitable for various potential applications.
