The time-dependent graphene oxide (GO) reduction in medium vacuum under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation at 365 nm has been investigated. We found that GO exposed to UV at room temperature and at a vacuum of about 10−1 mbar shows a notable oxidation for irradiation times up to about 60 min followed by a successive reduction up to 210 min. Characterization measurements have been performed mainly using the Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopies. ATR-FTIR spectra, acquired in the (400–4000) cm−1 wavenumber range, have indicated an initial decrement of the IR transmission (oxidation process) with the exposure time up to about 60 min and a successive increase of the IR transmission (reduction process) for greater irradiation times up to 210 min. The IR transmission bands are attributed to the oxygen functional groups contained in GO which increase for low UV exposure times and gradually disappear during the UV-induced reduction process. Raman spectra confirm this interpretation showing a decrease of the AD/AG ratio value, with respect to the GO virgin value, for low UV exposure times and an increase for greater times. The GO oxidation and reduction processes, due to the UV GO treatment in medium vacuum conditions, have been also verified by energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence and surface wettability measurements.
