    Abstract

    Ultralow friction coefficient in reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanofluid was observed at high pressure lubrication conditions. High pressure Raman spectroscopic studies of graphene oxide (GO) and rGO in a hydrostatic pressure medium in diamond anvil cell (DAC) showed an increase in G-band linewidth in GO but this value was decreased in rGO at same pressure range due to the defect relaxation in sp2 networks. Moreover, loss of recovery of G band linewidth in decompression cycles was clearly noticed in both the samples but it was significantly higher in GO due to the irreversible sp3 into sp2 planar phase.
