The preparation conditions have been optimized in order to obtain isolated and conductive S-rGO, and the products have been characterized by Ultraviolet-Visible spectroscopy, Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy, Raman, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray powder diffraction and electrochemical methods.

The optimum S-rGO exhibits a specific capacitance of 205 F·g^-1 and good cycling stability （3.9% decreasing after 10000 cycles）, which are better than those for graphene oxide （109 F·g^-1 and decreasing 6.6% after 10000 cycles） and rGO （139 F·g^-1 and decreasing ll.3% after 10000 cycling）.
