Hydrothermal Preparation of TiO2/Graphite Nanosheets Composites and Its Effect on Electrothermal Behavior

Nowadays, carbon materials are supposed to replace the resistance wire made of metal alloy be next generation heat-generating due their excellent electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. In this study, TiO2/graphite nanosheets (GNs) composite was prepared by chemical exfoliation hydrothermal methods. XRD, FTIR, Raman spectra confirm TiO2 particles on surface GNs. SEM photographs show nanoparticles covering GNs uniformly. We used TiO2/GNs sodium silicate produce electrothermal film coated glass. As compared raw GNs, heating rate maximum temperature have greatly improved. order find reasons for improvement, BET zeta potential were tested, we found that enhancement area dispersion make distribution more uniform.
