Abstract
The graphene and graphene oxide are latest and advanced materials with wide applications in environment, medical applications, industries, defense applications. We have synthesized graphene oxide from graphite flakes by modifying Hummer method in which we used NaNO2 instead of NaNO3. Then we characterized our samples with X-Ray Diffractometry (XRD), Scanning-Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Fourier-Transform Infrared-Spectroscopy (FT-IR). These results confirmed the formation of graphene oxide also through this process. This graphene oxide can further be used for future applications in wastewater treatment and biomedical applications.
