The conventional synthesis route of graphene oxide (GO<sup>G</sup>), based on Hummers method, suffers from explosion risk, environmental concerns and a tedious synthesis process, which increases production costs and hinders its practical applications. Herein, we report a novel strategy for preparing few-layer graphene oxide (GO<sup>H</sup>) from humic acid via simple hydrothermal treatment. The formation of GO<sup>H</sup> is mainly attributed to the hydrolysis, oxidation and aromatization of hum ...[more]
