Co 3 O 4 is often used to detect H 2 O 2 . However, there are many problems such as low sensitivity and the long detection time when detecting H 2 O 2 in various cobalt oxide composites. Therefore, it is a great challenge to develop different morphologies of the Co 3 O 4 electrode to improve the detection performances of H 2 O 2 effectively. In this paper, we had successfully prepared a novel Co 3 O 4 /reduced graphene oxide/carbon cloth (Co 3 O 4 /rGO/CC) composite. We used a simple template method. Co 3 O 4 nanosheets with a diameter of about 47.7 nm were obtained by using graphene oxide as a template. Then, CC was used as a three-dimensional conductive support material. CC can inhibit the agglomeration of rGO to increase specific surface area and to enhance the conductivity of Co 3 O 4 . In this study, the electrochemical performances of the Co 3 O 4 /rGO/CC electrode were tested by the electrochemical workstation. The trigger response of the modified electrode was reduced by 0.067% and the relative standard deviation was 0.013% after 30 consecutive tests. The range of linearity was 0.387–63.523 mM. Besides, this electrode has the limit of detection (0.022 μM) and a higher sensitivity (0.9683 mA mM −1 cm −2 ). It indicated that the electrode has excellent electrochemical sensing performance and high stability. These excellent performances are mainly due to the synergistic effect of Co 3 O 4 nanosheets, rGO, and CC.

Harvesting solar energy via pyroelectric technology is highly desired because it is a sustainable and clean solution to yield electricity. However, the low power output (below 5mW/m 2 ) and bulky device design of traditional devices hinder their practical applicability. Herein, we demonstrate a highly efficient sunlight-triggered pyroelectric nanogenerator (S-PENG) design that achieves unprecedented performance of 21.3 mW/m 2 under one sun irradiation. This is achieved via enhancing both the solar harvesting properties and the pyroelectric efficiencies rationally by employing polyethyleneimine (PEI) chemically modified reduced graphene oxide (rGO-PEI), and a pyroelectric layer based on a polarized polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film respectively. Moreover, we demonstrate its practical application by adapting the S-PENG into a wearable outdoor bracelet. Using a facile hand-waving motion to replace the traditional bulky sunlight-alternating device, our compact bracelet can charge a fitness tracker after only 1 h of outdoor exposure, demonstrating its capability to be seamlessly integrated with outdoor sports activities. We expect our rational design to promote the development of S-PENG and pave the way for the utilization of sunlight as a viable on-the-go electrical source.

A three-dimensional array of reduced graphene oxide/MoS 2 @ polyaniline-layered nanosheets (denoted as rGO/MoS 2 @ PANI) has a novel structure of intercalated MoS 2 /PANI nanosheets arrays arranged on rGO that can be used as carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) electrochemical immunosensors (detectors). In this graded nanosheet, the PANI was embedded in the MoS 2 interlayer. The MoS 2 /PANI nanosheets themselves limit volumetric changes when arranged as MoS 2 /PANI nanosheet arrays on rGO nanosheets to provide tight and sufficient heterogeneity. PANI locates on the interface itself and contains a large amount of –NH 2 that can bind many antibodies. Simultaneously, we investigated the optimal amount of aniline to add. We found that these arrays had excellent film thickness and conductivity for improving CEA detection sensitivity. The tested immunosensor achieved sensitive and specific detection of CEA, with a detection limit of 0.3 pg mL −1 . Under the optimal conditions, the prepared immunosensor exhibited acceptable reproducibility and selectivity and excellent stability. Satisfactory results of human serum samples indicated the potential application of the immunosensor for clinical monitoring of tumor markers.

Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) has been excellent three-dimensional network carries due to unique flexibility and high thermal conductivity. However, restricted by excellent electrical property of rGO, it remains blocking to fabricate high performance polymer composites applied in the electronic packaging field. In this work, a novel GO-assisted method was used to prepare different rGO@SiC structure as efficient heat pathways in polymer composites achieving desirable performance. The as-prepared epoxy composite, at a filler loading of 30 wt% and SiC particles of 600 nm, exhibited not only a high thermal conductivity (1.02 W/mK) but also the lowest electrical conductivity (1.18 × 10 −12 S/cm). An effective medium theory model (EMT) was constructed to perfectly predict the thermal conductivity of the composites and precisely calculate the interfacial thermal resistance. The research provides a creative insight to the design of rGO structure and high-performance composites with a bright application prospect in advanced thermal managing materials.

Mixed transition metal oxides with low-cost elements such as ZnFe 2 O 4 have been considered as the promising candidate as anode materials for Li-ion batteries (LIBs) owing to the high capacity originated from versatile redox reactions . However, poor conductivity and huge volume expansion during charging/discharging cause drastic capacity decay, which hinders their commercial application. Herein, we designed a unique core-shell N doped ZnFe 2 O 4 embedded in B, N doped graphene network (B/N-ZFO@rGO) using ionic liquids as multi-heteroatom source through facile hydrothermal reaction . Benefiting from the enhanced conductivity and structural stability, the B/N-ZFO@rGO as anode material for LIBs not only shows significantly improved specific capacity (668.1 mAh g −1 at 1 A g −1 after 100 cycles), but also remarkable rate capacity and long cycle life (377.4 mAh g −1 at 5 A g −1 after 1200 cycles), demonstrating great potential in future applications. Moreover, such rational design of structure as well as multiple elements doping using ionic liquids can be extensively applied in other electrode materials.

The self-supporting catalytic electrode is useful in the industry, since it can reduce the complex pre-treatment of catalytic materials and avoid the use of binders. In this work, a ternary self-supporting electrode including Cu mesh-supported graphene and molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) was prepared by electroplating zinc and hydrothermal reaction . Due to the excellent conductivity of copper and the hydrogen evolution catalytic ability of MoS 2 , this self-supporting electrode showed a low Tafel slope as 54 mV dec −1 and a current density of 400 mA cm −2 at an overpotential of -300 mV in hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). In addition, due to the metal flexibility of the Cu mesh substrate, the MoS 2 –rGO Cu ternary self-supporting electrode can be bent or cut into any desired shape. Even shaped as an elongated one, curved "S", this self-supporting electrode still kept itself from any deformation when hydrogen bubbles were rapidly generated. Therefore, a strategy for green, simple, and low-cost self-supporting electrode was provided, which may increase the large-scale operation of the catalytic electrode in HER.

Fe 3 O 4 /reduced graphene oxide (Fe 3 O 4 /rGO) nanocomposite has been successfully fabricated using a modified interface solvothermal method and characterized by X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. In the preparation procedure, graphene oxide was reduced and ultrafine Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles (NPs) were uniformly loaded on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) carrier. Scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope images and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller specific surface area revealed that the aggregation of Fe 3 O 4 NPs was greatly reduced by introducing rGO as a substrate. The average size of the Fe 3 O 4 NPs anchored on the graphene sheets was 100 nm, which is much smaller than 1-μm bare Fe 3 O 4 . The DSC results showed that Fe 3 O 4 /rGO nanocomposite reduces the first decomposition temperature of dihydroxylammonium 5,5′-bistetrazole-1,1′-diolate (TKX-50) by 44.9 °C and decreases the apparent activation energy of TKX-50 by 26.2 kJ mol −1 , which exhibits higher catalytic performance than its individual components and their physical mixture (hybrid). Hence, Fe 3 O 4 /rGO nanocomposite can be a promising additive for insensitive solid propellants based on TKX-50.

Cu 2 S has attracted great attention as anode material of lithium ion battery due to high theoretical capacity and good electron conductivity. However, the poor cyclic stability due to volume change during charging and discharging restrains its further application. Herein, to improve stability of Cu 2 S, 3D matrix composed of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) scaffold and Cu 2 S nanoflowers are synthesized by hydrothermal method and freeze-drying process. The 3D matrix structure could relieve the structural and morphological variation of nanoparticles during charge and discharge processes, and rGO as bridge increases the effective area that is simultaneously accessible to electrons and lithium ions to improve the specific capacity of Cu 2 S nanoflowers. Thus, excellent capacity, stable cycle life and preferable rate capability could be simultaneously realized. The 3D Cu 2 S@rGO composite electrodes show the specific capacity of 1630 mAh g −1 for the first cycle and a reversible capacity of 600 mAh g −1 after 200 cycles at 100 mAh g −1 .

3D Porous MnO x /rGO hydrogel (3DP MnO x /rGO hydrogel) as cathode material for aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs) is synthesized by polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), nanowires of MnO x (NW MnO x ) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) via repeated freeze-thaw method, which has a high flexibility and puncture resistance. The 3D self-supporting hydrogel presented complex 3D cross-linking system and excellent flexibility through hydrogen bonding and reinforcement of inorganic nano wires. The electrochemical and mechanical properties of the 3DP MnO x /rGO hydrogel are optimized by adjusting the respective percentages of NW MnO x (30%), rGO (5%), PVA (25%), and H 2 O (40%) in the total mass. The flexible hydrogel cathode exhibits a high capacity of 297.6 mA h g −1 and good cyclic stability after 500 cycles at 1 A g −1 . Finite element method confirms that the hydrogel material can alleviate the stress distribution caused by zincification process. The soft-packaged AZIBs, which utilize 3DP MnO x /rGO hydrogel as the cathode and Zn foil as the anode, exhibit excellent cycling performance (152.2 mA h g −1 at 1 A g −1 after 500 cycles under an angle of 180°) and provide a stable power supply across different bending angles.

SiO x has become one of the most promising anode materials for lithium ion batteries due to its high specific capacity, abundant natural resources and suitable lithium insertion and extraction voltage. However, the low conductivity and the poor cycle performance seriously hinder its practical application. In here, a simple and effective method is proposed to disperse SiO x between carbon materials including flake graphite, reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and then micron-sized N-SiO x /graphite/rGO-CNTs@C (N-SiO x /C@C) composite with dense structure is prepared by coating and pyrolysis of pitch. The synergistic effect of various carbon materials is beneficial to improve the conductivity of the material, and maintain the structural integrity during the cycle. The obtained N-SiO x /C@C anode exhibits high reversible capacity (980.2 mAh·g −1 ), excellent cycle stability (70 % capacity retention after 500 cycles at 0.5 A·g −1 ) and excellent rate performance (491.9 mAh·g −1 specific capacity of at 5 A·g −1 ). The strategy provided here effectively improves the electrochemical performances of SiO x , and the prepared materials show great application potential in the field of lithium ion batteries.

The design of an excellent active catalyst to improve the sluggish kinetic and thermodynamic properties of magnesium hydride (MgH 2 ) remains a great challenge to achieve its practical application. In this study, a novel Ni-Nb/rGO nanocomposite catalyst was successfully prepared by one-spot hydrothermal and subsequent calcination methods. The novel Ni-Nb/rGO nanocomposite exhibits an exceptional catalytic effect on improving MgH 2 sorption properties. Specifically, the onset desorption temperature of MgH 2 + 10 wt% Ni-Nb/rGO composite is reduced to 198 °C, much lower than that of undoped MgH 2 (330 °C). Interestingly, the composite can release 5.0, 5.9, and 6.0 wt% H 2 within 10 min at 245, 260, and 275 °C, respectively. Furthermore, the dehydrogenated MgH 2 + 10 wt% Ni-Nb/rGO composite starts to absorb hydrogen even at room temperature with approximate 2.75 wt% H 2 uptake at 75 °C under 3 MPa H 2 pressure within 30 min and exhibits excellent stability by maintaining 6.0 wt% hydrogen content after 20 cycles at 300 °C. Chou's model suggests that the de/hydrogenation kinetics of Ni-Nb/rGO-modified MgH 2 switches from surface penetration model to diffusion model at lower temperatures. Additionally, the activation energies ( E a ) for the de/hydrogenation of MgH 2 + 10 wt% Ni-Nb/rGO are reduced to 57.8 kJ/mol and 33.9 kJ/mol, which are significantly lower than those of undoped MgH 2 . The work demonstrates that the addition of a novel ternary Ni-Nb/rGO catalyst is an effective strategy to not only boost the sorption kinetics of MgH 2 but also maintain its cycling property.

In this work, the Z-scheme layered double hydroxide (LDH)/reduced graphene oxide (RGO)/indium vanadate (InVO 4 ) heterojunction was synthesized by a simple hydrothermal synthesis. RGO , with excellent electron mobility, endowed rapid charge migration and separation between the CoAl-LDH and InVO 4 . Various characterizations and tests showed that the LDH/RGO/InVO 4 heterojunction exhibited superior optical properties, and its carriers’ transfer pathway conformed to Z-scheme mechanism. Under visible light illumination, CO was observed to be the main product during photocatalytic CO 2 reduction, and the LDH/RGO/InVO 4 -15 exhibited the highest CO yield of 204.86 μmol g −1 within 2 h, approximately 2.62 times of pristine CoAl-LDH (78.2 μmol g −1 ). In addition, LDH/RGO/InVO 4 -15 showed favorable structure stability and performance stability. In situ fourier infrared spectroscopy (ISFT-IR) analysis demonstrated that the predominant intermediates of CO 2 reduction process were carboxylate (COOH*) and bicarbonate (HCO 3 *). Accordingly, possible pathways of CO 2 reduction to CO were deduced. This work can advance the development of efficient Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts for CO 2 reduction.
