摘要
Graphene oxide is explored as a potential electrode material and shown for the first time to exhibit unique voltammetric profiles towards select redox probes. This unique voltammetry provides a route for characterising graphene oxide, providing a simple methodology for the determination of the complete chemical or electrochemical reduction of graphene oxide to graphene prior to its application in a plethora of areas.
