Reduced graphene oxide (rGO; CAS number 1034343-98-0) is a form of graphene oxide with oxygen-containing groups removed in order to make the properties more similar to pure graphene. The more a flake is reduced, the more similar it is to graphene than graphene oxide.

Reduced graphene oxide can be made by taking graphene oxide, and either chemically reducing or thermally reducing it. Chemically-reduced graphene oxide retains more oxygen-containing functional groups compared to thermally-reduced graphene oxide. It also has the advantage of retaining the flake size and layer ratios of the initial graphene oxide, while having lower defect density than thermally-reduced graphene oxide.
