Abstract

An innovative approach is employed for synthesising reduced graphene oxide with antibacterial properties via utilisation of continuous supercritical water (in alkaline medium) which enabled reduction of graphene oxide in a single rapid route and thus eliminating hazardous conventional chemicals.
