Abstract

A fast and facile approach is developed to convert graphite into graphene oxide (GO) with the aid of microwave irradiation. The GO product is characterized with various techniques. In comparison with the traditional Hummers route, the new method greatly shortens reaction time and is more environmentally friendly.
