Abstract:

This paper aimed to conduct systematic bibliometric and visual analysis of graphene oxide（GO） status， and to explore the development status， research hotspots and frontier trends. CNKI database was used as the data source to retrieve the literature related to GO， and the bibliometric method was used for statistical analysis. A total of 2728 articles were included in this study， and the relevant studies showed a trend of “rising-slow decline”. The institutions with relatively high literature output are science and engineering colleges， indicating that the degree of specialization and intensification in this research field is relatively high. The keywords formed five categories， which were clustered by basic research on GO， preparation and reduction of GO， photocatalytic performance， electrochemical performance and mechanical properties， and made full use of GO characteristic analysis to describe the research hotspots in this field. The frontiers of GO research include： finding more ways to synthesize polymers and GO to improve the electrochemical performance of composites， GO composites adsorbing pollutants for sewage treatment， and using electrochemical reduction to prepare graphene using GO. GO has been widely used and has excellent performance in recent years， which is worthy of further exploration by relevant researchers to expand its application in the field of environment and chemistry.

Key words: Graphene oxide, Performance, Visual analysis, Research hotspots
