Abstract

Graphene oxide (GO) is a versatile material with a broad range of applications. Now a days, GO has garnered significant attention due to its unique properties. Graphene oxide's unique properties, including high surface area, electrical conductivity, and mechanical strength, enable its use in a wide range of applications. This review summarizes the synthesis methods and applications of GO, highlighting its potential across various fields in short. Graphene oxide is primarily synthesized through the oxidation of graphite. Hummers' Method, Modified Hummers' Method, Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD), Electrochemical Methods and Ultrasonic Exfoliation these are the common approaches used for synthesis of nanoparticles of GO. The choice of synthesis approach significantly influences the properties of GO, such as the degree of oxidation, layer number, and functional group composition, which in turn affects its performance in various applications. The synthesis and application of graphene oxide present a rapidly evolving field with significant implications for technology and industry. Ongoing research aims to refine synthesis methods and explore new applications, particularly in sustainable and environmentally friendly technologies.

Keywords: Graphene oxide, synthesis approach, Hummers' Method, degree of oxidation, technologies.
