We report the synthesized and preparation of graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposite functionalized with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) with different concentration of graphene oxide 0, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5 and 4% weight. This synthesized confirmed by FT-IR. The electrical conductivity of the all nanocomposite was measured at 25°C for all samples and the resulted showed […]
In this study, an efficient and facile technique for preparing graphene oxide in suspension and powder forms was presented based on a modification on Hummers' method followed by an additional ultrasonic process. The method involved the provision of graphene oxide from graphite by reaction of potassium permanganate and sulfuric acid with stabilizing the medium complex. […]
In this research, Graphene Oxide- Gold nanoparticles (AuNP/GO) were easily fabricated by a redox reaction between GO and chloroauric acid without using any additional reductant and then used to stabilize Pickering emulsions. (AuNP/GO) was investigated by FT-IR spectroscopy. The changes of parameters such as contact time, pH, Amoxicillin initial concentration and temperature were tested and […]
Herein, graphene oxide is produced by electrochemical oxidation method from graphite rod to examine its hydrogen peroxide sensing ability. The electrochemically produced graphene oxide is characterized by SEM and XRD. A few layers of Graphene Oxide(GO) sheets and corrugations in graphene sheets appeared intensely crumpled and folded into a typical wrinkled structure after electrochemical oxidation. […]
This paper gives a comprehensive review about the most recent progress in graphene and graphene oxide based electrochemical sensors and biosensors. Graphene, emerging as a true 2-dimensional material, has received increasing attention due to its unique physicochemical properties (high surface area, excellent conductivity, high mechanical strength, and ease of functionalization and mass production). The application […]
This study investigates the adsorption performance of spinel nanostructures-embedded graphene oxide (GO) for removing toxic Pb2+ ions from water. The graphene oxide nanocomposites containing Fe3O4, CoFe2O4, and NiFe2O4 nanoparticles were synthesized and characterized. The NiFe2O4/GO nanocomposite exhibited the highest Pb2+ adsorption capacity, reaching 96.1% removal at 75 minutes contact time with initial Pb2+ concentration of […]
