Closed access Metadata (CSL-JSON)
DOI 10.55956/royk6725
Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In this study, we describe the synthesis and structural, morphological and physico-chemical characterization of GO and RGO. GO is obtained from graphite by using the modified Hummers method, and chemically reduced with hydrazine monohydrate to achieve reduced graphene oxide (RGO). The structure, morphology and quality of GO and RGO are described by Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) analysis, Energy dispersive XRay spectroscopy (EDS). The results of analysis show that GO is successfully oxidized from graphite and is effectively reduced to RGO.
