However, the method firstly needs to obtain a graphene oxide intermediate product through chemical oxidation, a large number of oxygen-containing groups exist in the graphene oxide structure to form a large number of structural defects, so that the electric conduction and heat conduction properties of graphene are greatly reduced, and a graphene product with higher quality can be obtained through further reduction treatment. The existing reduction method mainly comprises a chemical reduction method and a thermal reduction method, wherein the chemical reduction method involves the use of strong reducing agents (such as hydrazine hydrate, sodium borohydride and potassium borohydride), the thermal reduction method needs to use a high-temperature environment with the temperature of more than 1000 ℃, and the problems of environment unfriendly, high-temperature energy consumption and the like exist, so that the production cost of graphene is high, the large-scale industrial application of the graphene is not facilitated, and meanwhile, the reduction process also brings serious environmental pollution, and the environmental protection and the green production are not facilitated.
