Reduced graphene oxides (RGOs) have usually been obtained by hydrazine reduction, but hydrazine-related compounds are corrosive, highly flammable and very hazardous, and the obtained RGOs heavily aggregated. Here we investigated extensively the effect of temperature and pH value on the structure of RGOs in hydrothermal environments without any reducing agents. The attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectra showed that reduction rate of GOs remarkably increased with the temperature from 100 to 180 degrees C and with pH value from 3 to 10. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) exhibited the structural transition of the RGOs. Energy-dispersive x-ray analysis (EDX) showed the reduction degree of the RGO samples quantitatively. The results demonstrate that the GOs can be reduced controllably by a hydrothermal reduction process at pH value of 10 at 140 degrees C, and the large-scale RGOs are cut into small nanosheets with size from several to a few tens of nanometers with increasing temperature and duration. This study provides a feasible approach to controllably reduce GO with different nanostructures such as porous structures and quantum dots for applications in optoelectronics and biomedicals.
