Application of graphene oxide as a hydrothermal catalyst support for synthesis of TiO2 whiskers.

چکیده
How graphene oxide (GO) with its step edges and wrinkles (∼1-2 nm) acts as a catalyst in hydrothermal nucleation and growth is demonstrated. TiO2 whiskers were prepared by using GO as a support, while TiO2 nanograss was prepared without using GO.

Grafting of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTS) on graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets followed by reaction with phosphotungstic acid (H3PW12O40, denoted as H3PW) gave a new functionalized GO which was characterized using FT-IR, FESEM, EDX, EDX elemental mapping and ICP-OES techniques. The catalytic activity of this nanomaterial containing phosphotungstic counter-anion H2PW12O40¯ (H2PW) which was de...
متن کاملGraphene oxide supported titanium dioxide & ferroferric oxide hybrid, a magnetically separable photocatalyst with enhanced photocatalytic activity for tetracycline hydrochloride degradation
A facile, robust approach to the synthesis of Fe3O4/rGO/TiO2 nanocomposites is described. The synthesis involves two major steps: (1) preparation of Fe3O4/GO by an electrostatic self-assembly method; (2) deposition of TiO2 on the surface of the Fe3O4/rGO nanocomposite via a hydrothermal method. The asprepared Fe3O4/rGO/TiO2 photocatalyst exhibited an enhanced photocatalytic activity for the deg...

In this paper, CuO nanoparticles are synthesized using Tilia platyphyllos extract as reducing and stabilizing agents and TiO2are prepared via facile sol-gel method as an ideal support. FT-IR spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS), and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) were used to characte...
متن کاملSingle-step One-pot Synthesis of TiO2 Nanosheets Doped with Sulfur on Reduced Graphene Oxide with Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity
A hybrid photocatalyst based on anatase TiO2 was designed by doping TiO2 with sulfur and incorporating reduced graphene oxide (TiO2-S/rGO hybrid), with an aim to narrow the band gap to potentially make use of visible light and decrease the recombination of excitons, respectively. This TiO2-S/rGO hybrid was successfully synthesized using a one-pot hydrothermal method via single-step reaction. Th...

A hydrothermal method for the synthesis of reduced graphene oxide/titanium dioxide filter (RGO/TiO2) and reduced graphene oxide/zinc oxide filter (RGO/ZnO) by using polypropylene (PP) porous filter is reported. Field emission scanning electron microscopy illustrated that the nanoparticles were uniformly distributed on the reduced graphene oxide nanosheets. Flexural tests showed that the physica...
