Hierarchical structured ZnFe 2 O 4 @reduced graphite oxide@TiO 2 (ZnFe 2 O 4 @RGO@TiO 2 ) nanocomposite was prepared by an electrostatic layer-by-layer route, which played a synthetic effect of Fenton oxidation of ZnFe 2 O 4 and photocatalytic oxidation of TiO 2 to degrade fulvic acid (FA) solution under visible-light irradiation. In this method, RGO, as the middle layer, can effectively promote the photo-induced electron flow between the ZnFe 2 O 4 and TiO 2 and further improve the efficiency of the photo-Fenton oxidation. The influencing factors on photo-Fenton oxidation, including solution pH, catalyst, and H 2 O 2 dosage, have also been investigated. The results illustrated that the ternary composite presented the enhanced catalytic performance. Under visible light irradiation, the degradation efficiency of the sample on the FA solution can reach 95.4% within 3 h. In addition, the catalyst exhibited superior stability and reusability, and its degradation efficiency was still up to 90% after 5 cycles. Therefore, the composite will be a kind of efficient photocatalyst and had a promising application for visible-light driven destruction of organic pollutants.

Nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ) is a major atmospheric pollutant that poses a significant threat to human health, the development of efficient and accurate NO 2 gas sensors is crucial for air quality monitoring. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are considered ideal materials for gas sensing due to their exceptional tunability, large surface area, high porosity, and abundant active metal sites. However, the poor conductivity of MOFs limits their applications in electrochemical sensors. This study presents a ZIF-67/rGO nanocomposite synthesized by combining reduced graphene oxide (rGO) with ZIF-67 via a one-step solution method. Experimental results demonstrate that the ZIF-67/rGO nanocomposite sensor shows significant sensitivity to NO 2 gas at room temperature. At 5 ppm NO 2 , the response is approximately 13-fold higher than that of the pure rGO sensor. More importantly, the sensor achieves a detection limit as low as 0.5 ppm, with an ultra-fast response time of 15 s and recovery time of 40 s at room temperature. Additionally, the sensor exhibits excellent repeatability, long-term stability, and high selectivity for NO 2 . This study presents an effective strategy for accurate real-time detection of low concentration NO 2 gas and provides valuable insights for designing MOF-based hybrid sensors at room temperature.

The harm of chromium pollution to the environment has caused a widespread concern; hexavalent chromium is a toxic, cancerogenic, and genetically mutagenic contaminant to the human body; by contrast, trivalent chromium is almost non-toxic to the human body; therefore, it is a feasible method to reduce hexavalent chromium to trivalent chromium. Photocatalysis is a new environmentally friendly and harmless technology, which can transform pollutants into non-toxic or less toxic products. In this study, we synthesized TiO 2 /rGO/CuO ternary nanocomposites to treat hexavalent chromium pollution under visible light. Under optimal conditions, the photoreduction efficiency of 100 ppm hexavalent chromium solution could reach 100% in 80 min. The photoreduction rate of hexavalent chromium is 29.4 times than that of pure TiO 2 . The photocatalytic property of CuO in TG2C8 nanocomposites is attributed to accelerate the separation of electrons and holes and the efficient electron transfer through the rGO framework. We believe that TiO 2 /rGO/CuO composites have great potential in wastewater treatment.

Marine pollution has become ever more serious, and photocatalysts have potential prospects in the application of marine anti-pollution. The RGO/Bi 2 WO 6 composite with the microsphere structure was synthesized by the hydrothermal method. The results showed that the sterilization rate of 2% RGO/Bi 2 WO 6 coating increased to more than 93% under visible light. The high performance was attributed to the improvement of the charge separation efficiency and the enhancement of the utilization rate of light. The formation mechanism of microspheres was discussed. Radical capture experiments proved that hydroxyl radical was the major active substance. Photocurrent and EIS experiments indicated that 2%RGO/Bi 2 WO 6 had excellent carrier separation efficiency.

BACKGROUND Membrane separation is a promising process for treatment of dye and oily wastewater if the antifouling capacity and recyclability can be improved. In recent years, the development of photocatalytic materials has provided new methods for research into membrane technology. RESULTS In this study, a novel photocatalytic membrane decorated with RGO-Ag-TiO 2 nanomaterial was fabricated by simple vacuum filtration for degradation of dye and separation of oil–water. First, TiO 2 nanowires were prepared for more effective photocatalysis, reduced graphene oxide (RGO)-Ag-TiO 2 was fabricated by a facile hydrothermal reaction, then it was directly decorated on cellulose acetate (CA) membrane using polyethylene glycol and glutaraldehyde. CONCLUSION The as-prepared photocatalytic membrane can simultaneously degrade dye and separate oil–water emulsions under visible-light irradiation in a short time. The membrane has extremely high water flux (191 L m -2 h -1 ) and rejection rates (almost 100%) of dye–oil–water emulsion. More importantly, the photocatalytic membrane shows excellent antifouling capacity and recyclability, and retains relatively stable dye–oil–water permeation flux (about 27.5 L m -2 h -1 ) and high rejection rates (up to 99%) after six cycles of experiments under visible-light irradiation. Overall, the photocatalytic membrane opens up new avenues for the treatment of wastewater. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry

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.

Abstract The treatment of dyes in wastewater is important to solve environmental problems. Advanced oxidation processes has been proved to be an effective treatment. In this work, a novel nanocomposite catalyst of ZIF-9@Fe 3 O 4 (cobalt-containing zeolitic imidazolate framework-9 coated Fe 3 O 4 nanocomposite) modified reduced graphite oxide (RGO) was prepared for the first time and coded as ZIF-9@CA-Fe 3 O 4 /RGO. Then, ZIF-9@CA-Fe 3 O 4 /RGO was immobilized on a cellulose membrane to obtain a composite membrane, which was used as a composite catalyst for activating peroxymonosulfate to degrade methylene blue (MB). The results demonstrated that the composite membrane could efficiently degrade approximately 96% of MB in 9 min without adjusting the initial pH and maintain good catalytic activity even after seven cycles. Furthermore, the composite membrane can be easily separated from the solution at the end of the reaction. This work indicates that the composite membrane has a broad application prospect in industrial applications. Graphic abstract

A novel electrochemical sensor was designed and constructed for high-sensitive detection of Taxifolin based on Co 3 S 4 @MoS 2 loaded on reduced graphene oxide (RGO-Co 3 S 4 @MoS 2 ) as modified materials. It’s the first time for Co 3 S 4 @MoS 2 was exploited to constructed electrochemical sensor. Owing to the Co 3 S 4 @MoS 2 providing a huge surface area to enrich more Taxifolin and the excellent electric conductivity of RGO, Taxifolin was detected sensitively with a linear range from 5.0 × 10 −9 to 1.0 × 10 −6 mol L − 1 and limit of detection down to 1.67 × 10 −9 mol L − 1 (S/N = 3). In addition, the sensor also demonstrated strong anti-interference properties in the presence of some metal ions and organic compounds. The proposed method was successfully applied for determination of Taxifolin in traditional Chinese medicine in fructus polygoni orientalis with satisfactory results.

In this work, the TiO 2 -RGO/LDHs photocatalyst was synthesized by a hydrothermal method using GO/LDHs as substrates. The structure and property of prepared materials were characterized via XRD, SEM, EDS, XPS, TEM, UV–vis spectroscopy, etc. Toluene, methanol, and ethyl acetate were selected as typical volatile organic pollutants model pollutants to examine the photocatalytic degradation effect of TiO 2 -RGO/LDHs. The photocatalytic efficiency of the TiO 2 -RGO/LDHs system was further investigated in contaminated air (NOx = 20 ppm). The results indicated that the prepared TiO 2 -RGO/LDHs nanocomposite possess better photodegradation activity than pure TiO 2 and TiO 2 -RGO samples, and the photocatalyst has excellent application for the elimination of three kinds of VOCs. The photochemical and materials characterization revealed that the graphene has enlarged the light response range and inhibited the recombination of electron-hole pairs of TiO 2 . Meanwhile, LDHs can offer more hydroxide ions to accelerate the oxidation reaction, resulting in more radicals and better pollutants degradation.

Nanocomposite films made from graphene oxide (GO) and MXene have a dense layered structure due to nanosheet self-stacking, limiting their dye adsorption performance. In this study, acid–base neutralization reactions are used to induce MXene/reduced graphene oxide (RGO) films bulging, which opens the stacked layer structure within the membrane and enhances MB adsorption performance. The effects of the pH, temperature, contact time, and initial concentration of MB on the adsorption performance are further investigated. The results indicate that the adsorption process conforms to the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Freundlich isotherm models and is heat-absorbing and spontaneous, and the MXene/RGO foams have an adsorption capacity of up to 1099.5 mg g–1 for MB. In addition, our study show that the MXene/RGO foams not only have better reusability, but also exhibit better adsorption for other dyes. The efficient MB removal is attributed to the increased specific surface area of the composite foams, increased active sites, strong electrostatic interactions between MB and the composite foams, as well as intercalation adsorption. These findings offer new options for solving dye effluent problems.

Ionic liquids are widely employed as electrolytes for electrochemical oxygen sensing due to their excellent physical and chemical properties. Recently, combining inorganic electrochemically active materials with ionic liquids are becomes intensively interesting to improve oxygen sensor performance. In this paper, two imidazolyl-based ionic liquids 1-ethyl-2,3-dimethylimidazole bis((trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl)imide [Emmim][TFSI] and 1-butyl-2,3-dimethylimidazole bis((trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl)imide [Bmmim][TFSI] with three saturated alkyl substituents on the aromatic ring were prepared by a traditional two-step method. Under the electrochemical test, both ionic liquids exhibit a certain responsibility to different concentrations of oxygen. Subsequently, α-Fe 2 O 3 /rGO was prepared by hydrothermal method and then mixed with the ionic liquids to prepare a composite ionic liquid electrolyte for detecting a wide range of oxygen concentrations. The response performance of prepared composite electrolyte toward the oxygen is improved, which exhibits a sensitivity of 0.1041 μA/[%O 2 ] to gradually changed oxygen concentration and a linear correlation (R 2 ) of 0.9997 between oxygen reduction peak currents. Hence, the results show that the pure ionic liquid has a certain ability to detect oxygen, while adding α-Fe 2 O 3 /rGO compounds further improve responsibility, stability and sensitivity of composite electrolyte to oxygen.

Radiation techniques, with their advantages of being clean, economical, and efficient, have been widely studied for the synthesis of nanocomposites. In this study, reduced graphene loading palladium nanoparticles (Pd/RGO) were prepared in situ in a single step at the phase interface of an ionic liquid (IL)-based microemulsion of these nanoparticles exposed to a high-energy electron beam. The influence of the radiation dose and initial mass ratio of graphene oxide (GO) and PdCl 2 were studied. In addition, the effect of the length of the alkyl chain of the IL on the shape and Pd nanoparticle content of Pd/RGO composites, as well as their electrochemical activity, were investigated in detail. The radiation dose did not affect the shape of the Pd nanoparticles but increased the Pd nanoparticle content of the Pd/RGO composites when the dose exceeded 80 kGy. The Pd nanoparticle content of the Pd/RGO composites decreased as the alkyl chain length of the ILs and the initial mass ratio of GO and PdCl 2 increased. Both the Pd nanoparticle content and their distribution in the Pd/RGO composites have a great influence on their electrochemical performance. Finally, Pd/RGO composites with excellent electrochemical activity were produced efficiently by using the radiation technique. This study provides a basis for the synthesis of carbon-based noble metal nanocomposites using a simple clean and efficient method.
