Nanosized titanium compounds are particularly effective in catalyzing hydrogen cycling by NaAlH 4 . Titanium hydride (TiH 2 ), as a catalyst, is highly interesting since it contributes hydrogen in addition to active Ti. However, it has been challenging to fabricate nanosized TiH 2 due to the strong affinity of Ti with oxygen. Herein, TiH 2 nanoflakes with a lateral size of ~10 nm and thickness of ~1 nm are successfully synthesized through a novel facile one-pot solvothermal process. In an anhydrous THF solution, LiH reacts with TiCl 4 rapidly at 100 °C forming TiH 2 and LiCl. The newly formed TiH 2 nucleates and grows epitaxially on the graphene surface due to the well-matched lattice parameters, giving rise to the formation of TiH 2 nanoflakes. Both theoretical calculations and experiments reveal the generation of Cl· radicals and unsaturated C C bonds when TiCl 4 reacts with THF, which promotes the formation of TiH 2 . The nanoflake-like TiH 2 on graphene enables an outstanding hydrogen storage performance of NaAlH 4 , i.e., full dehydrogenation at 80 °C and hydrogenation at 30 °C and under 100 bar H 2 , with a practical hydrogen capacity of 4.9 wt%, which has been never reported before.

We are just beginning to exploit the fascinating potential of thionine , called electrochemical probe that can selectively recognize specific polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), as tools for the detection of tricyclic aromatic hydrocarbons phenanthrene (PHE) and anthracene (ANT). A novel electrochemical sensing platform by modification of electroactive thionine functionalized graphene onto glass carbon electrode (Th/GRs/GCE) surface was constructed. The immobilized thionine showed a remarkable stability, which may benefit from the π–π stacking force with graphene. Under optimum conditions, the proposed electrochemical sensor exhibited high sensitivity and low detection limit for detecting PHE and ANT. The total amount of PHE and ANT could be quantified in a wide range of 10 pM–0.1 μM with a good linearity ( R 2 = 0.9979) and a low detection limit of 0.1 pM ( S / N = 3). Compounds which possess one or two benzene rings or PAHs with more than three rings, such as benzene, naphthalene (NAP), benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) and pyrene (PYR) show little interference on the detection. Consequently, a simple and sensitive electrochemical method was proposed for the determination of PHE and ANT, which was used to determine PHE and ANT in waste water samples. The electrochemical method provides a general tool that complements the commonly used spectroscopic methods and immune method for the detection of PAHs.

Herein, nitrogen, oxygen codoped porous carbon nanofibers (CNFs) from corn residue-derived lignin are fabricated via the electrospinning method, followed by introduction of graphenes (GNs) via a simple “brush-coating and drying” process. The obtained GN-coated carbon nanofibers (CNFs@GNs) exhibit a 3D network architecture, abundance of heteroatoms, excellent electrical conductivity, high specific surface area (700.92 m 2 g −1 ), thus boosting the electrochemical performances. The CNFs@GNs electrode delivers a higher specific capacitance of 271.1 F g −1 than CNFs (200.3 F g −1 ) at 1 A g −1 . Furthermore, the assembled CNFs@GNs symmetric supercapacitor exhibits an energy density of 20.3 Wh kg −1 at the power density of 199.97 W kg −1 together with a high charge/discharge reversibility of 97.3% and Coulombic efficiency of 99.81% after 10 000 cycles. This “brush-coating and drying” strategy utilized here provides a convenient and efficient route for designing CNFs and GN composites and can be utilized in other active materials.

Strontium ferrites/graphene (SrFe12O19/G) composites were synthesized by a facile one-step surfactant assisted hydrothermal method. The structure, magnetic properties and electromagnetic parameters of the as-prepared composites were evaluated. Uniform SrFe12O19 nanoparticles with a diameter of 60–70 nm were well distributed on the graphene. The formation of SrFe12O19 nanoparticles and the reduction of graphene oxide were accomplished simultaneously. The re-stacking of graphene sheets and the aggregation of SrFe12O19 nanoparticles were inhibited. The as-obtained composites exhibited better absorbing properties than the pristine SrFe12O19 particles due to the synergistic effect of SrFe12O19 and graphene. The minimum reflection loss (RL) of SrFe12O19/G composites with the thickness of 3 mm reached −34.8 dB at 13.6 GHz, and the effective absorption bandwidth (RL < −10 dB) was 5.7 GHz. However, the minimum RL of the SrFe12O19 particles only reached −13.5 dB, and the effective absorption bandwidth was 4.6 GHz. A possible mechanism for the enhanced absorbing performance was proposed.

N,N -dimethylamino-4′-N′-methylstilbazolium 2,4,6-trimethylbenzenesulfonate (DSTMS)-graphene ex-situ and in-situ composite films with 2% concentration of graphene were first prepared and systematically investigated. The crystallinity of DSTMS-based composite films were confirmed by XRD analysis, and the functional groups of composite films can be obtained by FT-IR. Optical absorptions were recorded using UV–Vis-NIR spectral analysis, and the band gap and extinction coefficient of the films were calculated. The thermal stability of the composite films were analyzed by TG/DSC. The pressure sensitive resistance test showed that the pressure sensitive signal of the composite films were significantly increased after graphene added, while the signal of DSTMS film eventually disappears. This work expands the application of organic nonlinear crystal DSTMS in optics and electricity by doping graphene.

A novel biosensor based on electro-co-deposition of myoglobin (Mb), sodium alginate (SA), Fe 3 O 4 -graphene (Fe 3 O 4 -GR) composite on the carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE) was fabricated using Nafion as the film forming material to improve the stability of protein immobilized on the electrode surface, and the modified electrode was abbreviated as Nafion/Mb-SA-Fe 3 O 4 -GR/CILE. FT-IR and UV–vis absorption spectra suggested that Mb could retain its native structure after being immobilized in the SA-Fe 3 O 4 -GR composite film. The electrochemical behavior of the modified electrode was studied by cyclic voltammetry, and a pair of symmetric redox peaks appeared in the cyclic voltammograms, indicating that direct electron transfer of Mb was realized on the modified electrode, which was ascribed to the good electrocatalytic capability of Fe 3 O 4 -GR composite, the good biocompatibility of SA and the synergistic effects of SA and Fe 3 O 4 -GR composite. The electrochemical parameters of the electron transfer number ( n ), the charge transfer coefficient ( α ) and the electron transfer rate constant ( k
s ) were calculated as 0.982, 0.357 and 0.234 s −1 , respectively. The modified electrode exhibited good electrocatalytic ability to the reduction of trichloroacetic acid (TCA) with wide linear range from 1.4 to 119.4 mmol/L, low detection limit as 0.174 mmol/L (3 σ ), good stability and reproducibility.
