文摘

Nonstoichiometric titania reduced graphene oxide (RGO/TiO₂) hybrid was synthesized by a simple method. The as-prepared nanomaterials were characterized by a variety of techniques, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). We explored whether the RGO/TiO₂ hybrid could achieve a more excellent photocatalytic activity compared with the pure anatase TiO₂ nanorods for degradation of industrial dyes. The results show that the new TiO₂ nanocomposites can further enhance the performance of the anatase TiO₂ nanorods in the photocatalysis, and it has a potential application in industrial dye wastewater treatment.
