Subsequently, investigation for its use in energy storage devices &amp; gadgets, catalysis, sensors, and vitality transformation and capacity and so on. For these reasons, the large scale manufacturing of such materials at minimum expenses is fundamental prerequisites [2-6].<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u00a0Moreover, GO is processable and can be manufactured or self-collected into naturally visible materials having controlled structures for pragmatic applications [7]. GO is the forerunner of rGO; therefore, it assists in controlling the different characteristics of rGO [8-13]. Schafhaeul discussed GO in 1840 [14] followed the same by Brodie in 1859 [15]. In this technique, graphite was mixedwith KClO<sub>3<\/sub> and responded in raging HNO<sub>3<\/sub> at 60\u00baCelsius for 92 hrs. Staudenmaier modified Brodie technique by supplanting around two thirds of raging HNO<sub>3<\/sub> with concentrated H<sub>2<\/sub>SO<sub>4<\/sub> and including KClO<sub>3<\/sub> in different parts. This little alteration empowers the general response in a solitary vessel; along these lines rearranging the blend strategy for 4 days [16]. The most significant technique for the combination of GO was created by Hummers what&#8217;s more, Offeman in 1958 (Hummers strategy) [17]. In this method, graphite oxidation was accomplished by treatment of graphite powders in a concentrated H<sub>2<\/sub>SO<sub>4<\/sub> arrangement containing KMnO<sub>4<\/sub>, 0.5 equivalent load of NaNO<sub>3<\/sub>. The Hummers strategy, at least, has three significant points of interest over past strategies as the response can be finished inside a couple hours. KClO<sub>3<\/sub> was supplanted by KMnO<sub>4 <\/sub>to improve the response security, staying away from the development of unstable ClO<sub>2<\/sub> and the utilization of NaNO<sub>3<\/sub> as opposed to smoldering HNO<sub>3<\/sub> wipes out the arrangement of corrosive mist [18].<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">For a protected situation, it is required to give more consideration for the advancement of lithium sulfur battery having high energy density and good cycle life. Presently, carbon materials have been progressively tried for upgradation in cathode materials for lithium sulfur batteries [19-20]. Sheets of graphene oxide comprise carbon molecules having sp<sup>3<\/sup> arrangement mostly and is a coated compound improved by C, H, O in factor proportion to make GO hydrophilic and henceforth frames watery colloids by straightforward arrangement procedure to encourage a gathering of naturally visible structure [21-22]. It is likewise nature biocompatible utilized in vitality capacity, bio sensor and malady discovery and so forth. Conduction capacity of GO relies upon oxidation and amalgamation in compound. Likewise, epoxide bunches containing oxygen permit GO to scattered in water and other natural solvents. Sheets of GO are precisely solid films having a huge number of little pieces. Functionalization of GO can be done from multiple points of view contingent upon the wanted application like additives for electrode material of Lithium sulfur batteries, fuel cell, sensors or as medication conveyance material [23-25].<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Here we report modified Hummer\u2019s method using charcoal activated in place of graphite flakes for synthesis of GO having different stirring time and temperature. Further X-ray diffraction analysis, FT-IR, Raman spectroscopy, and FESEM were used for characterization of synthesised graphene oxide.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify\" start=\"2\">\n<li><strong> EXPERIMENTAL SECTION<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>2.1.

Finally, 20 mL H<sub>2<\/sub>O<sub>2<\/sub> was added and stirred for 1 hr appearance of yellow colour indicates the formation of graphene oxide and washed with distilled water and hydrochloric acid to remove metal impurities several times till pH value reaches 7 and dried under vacuum for 24 hrs.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify\" start=\"3\">\n<li><strong> RESULTS AND DISCUSSION<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>3.1.
