The ability to predict the transport of heavy metal ions in porous media with different surface characteristics is crucial to protect groundwater quality and public health. In this study, the effects of graphene oxide (GO) on co-transport and remobilization of Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ in humic acid (HA), smectite , kaolinite , and ferrihydrite-coated sand media were evaluated via laboratory packed-column experiments. Scanning electron microscope and energy dispersive X-ray analysis showed that the surface morphology of the coated sands was quite different and that ∼56.7–89.9% of the surface was covered by the coating and the major elemental components were C, O, Si, Al, and Fe. GO exhibited high mobility in HA, kaolinite , and smectite-coated sand, but showed high retention in ferrihydrite-coated sand. While GO reduced the transport of Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ , both metal ions also reduced the mobility of GO in coated-sand columns. Elution experiments revealed that GO led to the remobilization and release of the previously sorbed Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ from the coated sand. However, GO could not release Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ from smectite-coated sand columns, probably because smectite has stronger adsorption affinity to the heavy metals than GO. Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek calculations were employed and explained the GO transport behavior in the columns well. Furthermore, the advection-dispersion-reaction equation simulated the cotransport of Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ with GO in the coated sand well. These results are expected to provide insight into the potential impact of coexisting nanomaterials with contaminants in vulnerable soil and groundwater systems.

The partial reduced graphene oxide (P-rGO) sheets-wrapped nickel foams (NF@P-rGO) were prepared by hydrothermal method, and then their epoxy composites were fabricated via a simple drop-wetting process. The P-rGO sheets on the metal networks could effectively improve the compatibility between nickel foam and epoxy resin, thus greatly accelerate the wetting of epoxy resin on the foams and avoid cracks in the network–polymer interface. Owing to the existence of high-efficiency conductive metal networks, the NF@P-rGO/epoxy composite has a high thermal conductivity of 0.584 W m −1 K −1 , which is 2.6 times higher than that of neat epoxy resin. Additionally, owing to the improved wetting ability, NF@P-rGO-10 wt% boron nitride (BN) microsheets/epoxy composites could be fabricated and have a further higher thermal conductivity of 0.71 W m −1 K −1 . We believe the use of P-rGO as a novel surface modifier and the following liquid polymer drop-wetting could be an effective method to obtain novel and outstanding metal foam/polymer composites.

A novel approach to synthesize phytic acid (PA) functionalized graphene oxide (P-pFGO-7) treated by the photo-Fenton reaction has been designed, which has been used as an adsorbent for efficient capture of U(VI) from aqueous solution. The structure and morphology of P-pFGO-7 were characterized well. The adsorption property for P-pFGO-7 was comprehensively assessed by batch experiments, showing the high adsorption capacity (266.7 mg/g, at pH = 4.0, T = 298 K), fast adsorption kinetics (~10 min), good selectivity for U(VI) and Ln-An ions in various coexisting ions and excellent regeneration capacity. With the assistance of various characterization techniques and batch adsorption results, it is found that PA makes the most contribution to coordinate U(VI) heavily depending on the P O moiety. P-pFGO-7 could be regenerated by 0.1 mol/L Na 2 CO 3 with ~95% desorption efficiency and reused well after five recycles. This present work provides a feasible route to modify graphene oxide and extend PA for potentially practical application in the removal of U(VI) from radioactive wastewater .

Carbon nanotubes and reduced graphene oxides (CNTs/rGO) sphere decorated with Cu 2 O, CuO nanoparticles (Cu x O–CNTs/rGO) was successfully synthesized by spray drying and post-calcinating method for the first time. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy observations confirmed that CNTs/rGO formed a spherical micrometer structure and Cu x O nanoparticles were decorated on their surface. The experimental results indicated that this novel architecture enhanced photocatalytic performance with 97.5% decomposition of methyl orange (MO) after 20 min in the presence of H 2 O 2 under visible light irradiation, which was much higher than that of pure Cu x O powders (31.2%).

Intercalation and exfoliation are key steps in the preparation of graphene by thermal exfoliation, and they determine the quality of the final product. Therefore, it is important to explore the influence of intercalation agents on the intercalation and exfoliation of graphite. In this article, ammonium bicarbonate is intercalated into graphite with different degrees of oxidation to form a graphite intercalation compound (GIC) by means of ultrasound and stirring. Then, they are exfoliated by being heated at high temperatures. After ammonium bicarbonate intercalation and heating treatment, XRD, TG, and BET show that the intercalation and exfoliation effect of graphite oxide (GO) is better than that of graphite (G) and expanded graphite (EG). The intercalation mechanism is that the ammonia molecule in ammonium bicarbonate solution contains a wedge-shaped structure and active point, which provides empty orbits for graphite electrons and forms edge intercalation through physical interaction at the same time.

A modified electrode was fabricated by casting graphene oxide (GO) suspension onto the surface of active glassy carbon electrode (GCE), and it can significantly enhanced the oxidation peak currents of m-trihydroxybenzene (m-THB) and p-nitrophenol (p-NP). Based on this, a sensitive analytical method towards their simultaneous determination was established. Many influencing factors such as the type of electrolyte, acidity, scan rates and concentrations were explored. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the oxidation peak currents of m-THB and p-NP were linearly increased with their concentrations ranging from 9 to 100 μM, with the detection limits both of 1 μM. Comparing with other reported methods, this sensor showed wider linear range and lower detection limit. In addition, the proposed method was successfully used to analysis of real environmental water samples with satisfactory recoveries, which verified the practicability of the sensor.

Compared with solvent-based resins, waterborne resins still have defects such as insufficient anti-corrosion efficiency. In this paper, the sulfonated graphene/zinc phosphate composites were prepared as an anti-corrosion filler and doped into waterborne polyurethane resin. The morphology of composites is different from pure zinc phosphate. The optimal corrosion resistance can be obtained by adding 0.5 wt% sulfonated graphene/zinc phosphate fillers characterized by Potentiodynamic polarization curves and EIS analysis The corrosion current density ( i corr ) was 0.4252 μA/cm 2 and the charged transfer resistance (R ct ) was up to 10.937 × 10 3 Ω cm 2 , which show a good potential as anti-corrosive fillers in waterborne coatings system.

In this paper, graphene oxide (GO) was functionalized with a hyperbranched cyclotriphosphazene polymer, which was synthesized by the repeated reactions of hexachlorotriphosphazene with hexamethylenediamine. Subsequently, the resultant functionalized GO was incorporated into dicyclopentadiene bisphenol dicyanate ester (DCPDCE) to prepare composites. Fourier-transform infrared spectra, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and transmission electron spectroscopy were employed to examine the surface functionalization of GO. The effects of functionalized GO on the curing reactivity, mechanical, dielectric, thermal and water resistent properties of DCPDCE resin were investigated systematically. Results show that the addition of modified GO can facilitate the curing reaction of DCPDCE. Meanwhile, the appropriate content of modified GO can enhance the mechanical properties including impact and flexural strengths of DCPDCE resin. When modified GO content is 0.6 wt%, the corresponding composite exhibits slightly higher dielectric constant but lower dielectric loss than pure DCPDCE resin over the testing frequency from 10 to 60 MHz. In addition, the thermal stability and moisture resistance of modified GO/DCPDCE nanocomposties are also superior to that of pure DCPDCE resin.

A study area in supercapacitor research is the design and manufacturing of composite electrode materials that combine the advantages of various materials. The rGO/CoFe 2 O 4 composite material is produced by growing cobalt ferrite particles on the surface of rGO using a simple and highly efficient thermal reduction technique. The results show that the electrochemical properties of rGO are significantly improved by the incorporation of cobalt ferrite. rGO sheets are used as supporting frameworks for the CoFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles, while the CoFe 2 O 4 particles provide more active sites for redox reactions. The prepared rGO/CoFe 2 O 4 show excellent electrochemical properties, with a high specific capacitance of 283 F/g at a current density of 0.1 A/g and a specific capacitance retention of 90.5% after 1000 cycles. The attractive performances exhibited by rGO/CoFe 2 O 4 composites make them potential electrode materials for supercapacitors in future.

Carboxylated pillar[5]arene (CP5) macrocycles were modified onto the surface of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) via covalent bonds to form new pillarene-functionalized RGO nanosheets, i.e. , RGO-CP5. The obtained RGO-CP5 nanosheets capable of molecular recognition exhibited much better water-dispersibility and enhanced fluorescence-quenching property as compared with native RGO. This new sensing platform holds great potentials in the sensing and detection of analytes, such as organic dye molecules and pesticides, in aqueous solutions.

The synergic effect between each component in composite membrane has created a new concept to fabricate membrane materials and widen their applications. Previous trials have suggested that micrometer-scale aramid fiber (MAF) could be effectively split into nanoscale aramid fiber (NAF) by dissolution in DMSO/KOH. Addressed herein is a time-saving approach to incorporate graphene oxide (GO) together with NAF to fabricate composite membranes through π–π stacking interactions. NAF–GO composite membranes (GO/NAF) containing gradient contents of GO have been prepared using absolute ethanol as proton donor, making the drying process facile and fast. The obtained composite membranes exhibit excellent hydrophilicity and enhanced mechanical performance. The chemical structure, morphology, crystallization and mechanical strength of GO/NAF composite membranes are characterized, respectively, and the hydrophilicity of GO/NAF is also evaluated by static water contact angle measurements. In the case of medium GO content (1 wt%) used in this study, the composite membrane possesses both optimal mechanical performance and better hydrophilicity compared to other supplementations, indicating that absolute ethanol is a promising proton donor for flocculation, which makes the post-treatment process more economic.

The use of nanocarbon materials to enhance the toughness of fragile cementitious materials has attracted increasing attention for investigation. This study examines the effects of incorporating graphene oxide (GO) into NaOH-activated slag (AAS) pastes and mortars, focusing on workability, phase composition, mechanical properties, and the local mechanical properties of the interfacial transition zone (ITZ) between sand and paste. The experimental results indicate that the addition of GO decreases the flowability of NaOH-AAS pastes, with noticeable aggregation at concentrations above 0.03 wt%. Furthermore, GO enhances the hydration degree of ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS), leading to an increased amount of C-A-S-H gel without introducing new phases. In terms of macro performance, incorporating 0.03 wt% GO significantly improves the compressive and flexural strengths of NaOH-AAS mortars by 10.6 % and 17.9 %, respectively. Additionally, the presence of GO reduces the ITZ thickness from 30 to 15 micrometres in NaOH-AAS mortars, which likely contributes to the enhanced mechanical performance.
