Mesoporous CuO–reduced graphene oxide (rGO) composite powders were prepared by using a two‐step spray‐drying process. In the first step, hollow CuO powders were prepared from a spray solution of copper nitrate trihydrate with citric acid and were wet milled to obtain a colloidal spray solution. In the second step, spray drying of the colloidal solution that contained dispersed GO nanosheets produced mesoporous CuO–rGO composite powders with particle sizes of several microns. Thermal reduction of GO nanosheets to rGO nanosheets occurred during post‐treatment at 300 °C. Initial discharge capacities of the hollow CuO, bare CuO aggregate, and CuO–rGO composite powders at a current density of 2 A g?1 were 838, 1145, and 1238 mA h g?1, respectively. Their discharge capacities after 200 cycles were 259, 380, and 676 mA h g?1, respectively, and their corresponding capacity retentions measured from the second cycle were 67, 48, and 76 %, respectively. The mesoporous CuO–rGO composite powders have high structural stability and high conductivity because of the rGO nanosheets, and display good cycling and rate performances. 相似文献

Exploring a new-family of carbon-based desalinators to optimize their performances beyond the current commercial benchmark is of significance for the development of practically useful capacitive deionization (CDI) materials. Here, we have fabricated a hierarchically porous N,P-doped carbon–graphene 2D heterostructure (denoted NPC/rGO) by using metal–organic framework (MOF)-nanoparticle-driven assembly on graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets followed by stepwise pyrolysis and phosphorization procedures. The resulting NPC/rGO-based CDI desalinator exhibits ultrahigh deionization performance with a salt adsorption capacity of 39.34 mg g−1 in a 1000 mg L−1 NaCl solution at 1.2 V over 30 min with good cycling stability over 50 cycles. The excellent performance is attributed to the high specific surface area, high conductivity, favorable meso-/microporous structure together with nitrogen and phosphorus heteroatom co-doping, all of which are beneficial for the accommodation of ions and charge transport during the CDI process. More importantly, NPC/rGO exhibits a state-of-the-art CDI performance compared to the commercial benchmark and most of the previously reported carbon materials, highlighting the significance of the MOF nanoparticle-driven assembly strategy and graphene–carbon 2D heterostructures for CDI applications.MOF nanoparticle-driven assembly on 2D nanosheets produces the graphene–carbon heterostructure with hierarchically-porous P,N-doped layered architecture. 相似文献
The present work deals with the preparation of hybridized electrode material with electrostatic self-assembly strategy for mesalamine (MES) detection. Grabbing significant abilities between the one-dimensional bimetallic oxides and two-dimensional nanosheets network, a nanohybrid was designed. The developed cobalt stannate/reduced graphene oxide (Co2SnO4/rGO)-1D/2D heterostructure will possess improvised anisotropic electron transport, earth abundant, highly conducting, multiple actives site, and higher surface area. The 1D/2D nanostructured architecture will enhance faster electron and mass transport during the electrochemical analysis, which is more significant for MES detection. Progressive testing of Co2SnO4/rGO for structural analysis was done, and highly crystalline nature was proved. The self-assembled nanospheres to form nanocube such as Co2SnO4 strongly attached over the rGO matrix was confirmed with field emission scanning microscope, and nanocube structure is more visible with high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The hierarchical highly electroactive material establishes lower detection limit at 4.9 nM with sensitivity of about 8.57 μA/μM/cm2. The interfacial area of nanocomposite with higher conducting channels to improve the interactions with MES resulted in enhanced selectivity. The practical analysis in environmental, pharmaceutical, and biological fluids (human urine and serum) showed good recovery. The Co2SnO4/rGO will be more prominent and significant as electrode material in electrochemical sensing. 相似文献
Two-dimensional (2D) layered vanadium disulfide (VS_2) is a promising anode material for lithium ion batteries (LIBs) due to the high theoretical capacity.However,it remains a challenge to synthesize monodispersed ultrathin VS_2 nanosheets to realize the full potential.Herein,a novel solvothermal method has been developed to prepare the monodispersed bowl-shaped NH_3-inserted VS_2 nanosheets (VS_2).The formation of such a unique structure is caused by the blocked growth of (001) or (002) crystal planes in combination with a ripening process driven by the thermodynamics.The annealing treatment in Ar/H_2creates porous monodispersed VS_2(H-VS_2),which is subsequently integrated with graphene oxide to form porous monodispersed H-VS_2/rGO composite coupled with a reduction process.As an anode material for LIBs,H-VS_2/rGO delivers superior rate performance and longer cycle stability:a high average capacity of 868/525 mAh g~(-1) at a current density of 1/10 A g~(-1);a reversible capacity of 1177/889 mAh g~(-1) after 150/500 cycles at 0.2/1 A g~(-1).Such excellent electrochemical performance may be attributed to the increased active sites available for lithium storage,the alleviated volume variations and the shortened Li-ion diffusion induced from the porous structure with large specific surface area,as well as the protective effect from graphene nanosheets. 相似文献

An efficient and universal method to directly hybridize isocharged nanosheets of layered metal oxide and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) is developed on the basis of the surface modification and an electrostatically driven assembly process. On the basis of this synthetic method, the CoO2–rGO nanocomposite can be synthesized with exfoliated CoO2 and rGO nanosheets, and transformed into CoO–CoO2–rGO nanocomposites with excellent electrode performance for lithium‐ion batteries. Also, this surface‐modification assembly route is successfully applied for the synthesis of another mesoporous TiO2–rGO nanocomposite. This result provides clear evidence for the usefulness of the present method as a universal way of hybridizing isocharged anionic nanosheets of inorganic solids and graphene. 相似文献
Transition-metal oxides are considered to be a promising anode material for lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)due to their high capacities,low cost,and ease of synthesis.Herein,a hybrid nanosheet composed of uniform MoO_2 nanoparticles(NPs) homogeneously immobilized on the reduced graphene oxide nanosheets(MoO_2 NP@rGO) is first synthesized by a self-templating and subsequent calcination treatment.The unique two-dimensional hybridnanosheets provides several merits.rGO can be used as a favorable support for the loading of electrochemically active MoO_2 NPs.Meanwhile,MoO_2 NPs can effectively prevent the stacking of the rGO.The effective combination of MoO_2 NPs and rGO nanosheets furnish additional electrochemically interfacial active sites for extra lithium ion sto rage.Noticeably,the as-fabricated hybrid nanosheets deliver a reversible capacity of 641 mAh/g after 350 cycles at a current density of 1000 mA/g with a good rate capability.The greatly enhanced lithium storage properties of MoO_2 NP@rGO indicate the importance of elaborate construction of novel hybrid hierarchical structures. 相似文献
Confined transformation of assembled two‐dimensional MXene (titanium carbide) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanosheets was employed to prepare the free‐standing films of the integrated ultrathin sodium titanate (NTO)/potassium titanate (KTO) nanosheets sandwiched between graphene layers. The ultrathin Ti‐based nanosheets reduce the diffusion distance while rGO layers enhance conductivity. Incorporation of graphene into the titanate films produced efficient binder‐free anodes for ion storage. The resulting flexible NTO/rGO and KTO/rGO electrodes exhibited excellent rate performances and long cycling stability characterized by reversible capacities of 72 mA h g?1 at 5 A g?1 after 10000 cycles and 75 mA h g?1 after 700 cycles at 2 A g?1 for sodium and potassium ion batteries, respectively. These results demonstrate the superiority of the unique sandwich‐type electrodes. 相似文献
The development of flexible electrodes is of considerable current interest because of the increasing demand for modern electronics, portable medical products, and compact devices. We report a new type of flexible electrochemical sensor fabricated by integrating graphene and MoS2 nanosheets. A highly flexible and free‐standing conductive MoS2 nanosheets/reduced graphene oxide (MoS2/rGO) paper was prepared by a two‐step process: vacuum filtration and chemical reduction treatment. The MoS2/graphene oxide (MoS2/GO) paper obtained by a simple filtration method was transformed into MoS2/rGO paper after a chemical reduction process. The obtained MoS2/rGO paper was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X‐ray diffraction spectroscopy, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The electrochemical behavior of folic acid (FA) on MoS2/rGO paper electrode was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and amperometry. Electrochemical experiments indicated that flexible MoS2/rGO composite paper electrode exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the FA, which can be attributed to excellent electrical conductivity and high specific surface area of the MoS2/rGO paper. The resulting biosensor showed highly sensitive amperometric response to FA with a wide linear range. 相似文献
Herein, we report the synthesis of a graphene/polymer composite via a facile and straightforward approach for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding applications. Polystyrene (PS) beads were added in graphene oxide (GO)/water solution followed by the addition of hydroiodic acid (HI) for in situ reduction of GO. The composite solution (rGO/PS) was filtered, hot compressed and tested for EMI shielding and dielectric measurements. A 2-mm thick segregated rGO/PS sample with 10 wt% filler loading delivered a high EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) of 29.7 dB and an AC electrical conductivity of 21.8 S m?1, which is well above the commercial requirement for EMI shielding applications. For comparison with the segregated rGO/PS composite, a control polymer composite sample utilizing a thermally reduced graphene oxide was synthesized by following a conventional coagulation approach. The as-synthesized conventional rGO/PS yield an EMI SE of 14.2 dB and electrical conductivity of 12.5 S m?1. The high EMI shielding of segregated rGO/PS is attributed to the better filler-to-filler contact among graphene layers surrounded by PS beads and also to the better reduction and preservation of graphene structure during reduction process that makes the low temperature chemically reduced segregated rGO/PS approach a viable route compared to high temperature thermally reduced conventional rGO/PS approach. 相似文献
A novel 3D porous reduced graphene oxide/montmorillonite composite hydrogel (rGO–MMT) was prepared by solvent method, where the MMT nanosheets were homogenously dispersed in 3D rGO hydrogel. The porous 3D structure and the high dispersion of MMT nanosheets can promote the adsorption capacity. The effects of MMT content (wt%), the initial concentration of Cr(VI) solution (C0), pH value (pH0), the adsorption dose and temperatures on the adsorption capacity of rGO–MMT for Cr(VI) ions have been investigated. The optimum pH value for Cr(VI) adsorption is 2, and the adsorption capacity increases with MMT content and adsorption temperature. The rGO–MMT composite hydrogel displays the excellent adsorption property for both the heavy metal and organic pollutants. The adsorption capacity of rGO–MMT composite hydrogel is obviously higher than those of single rGO hydrogel and MMT due to the synergistic adsorption of rGO hydrogel and MMT. The adsorption of Cr(VI) ions on the rGO–MMT composite hydrogel follows linear pseudo-second-order kinetics, and the Langmuir model describes the adsorption process much better. Thermodynamic parameters indicate that adsorption is spontaneous, favorable and endothermic in nature.
Mesoporous layer-by-layer ordered nanohybrids highly active for visible light-induced O(2) generation are synthesized by self-assembly between oppositely charged 2D nanosheets of Zn-Cr-layered double hydroxide (Zn-Cr-LDH) and layered titanium oxide. The layer-by-layer ordering of two kinds of 2D nanosheets is evidenced by powder X-ray diffraction and cross-sectional high resolution-transmission electron microscopy. Upon the interstratification process, the original in-plane atomic arrangements and electronic structures of the component nanosheets remain intact. The obtained heterolayered nanohybrids show a strong absorption of visible light and a remarkably depressed photoluminescence signal, indicating an effective electronic coupling between the two component nanosheets. The self-assembly between 2D inorganic nanosheets leads to the formation of highly porous stacking structure, whose porosity is controllable by changing the ratio of layered titanate/Zn-Cr-LDH. The resultant heterolayered nanohybrids are fairly active for visible light-induced O(2) generation with a rate of ~1.18 mmol h(-1) g(-1), which is higher than the O(2) production rate (~0.67 mmol h(-1) g(-1)) by the pristine Zn-Cr-LDH material, that is, one of the most effective visible light photocatalysts for O(2) production, under the same experimental condition. This result highlights an excellent functionality of the Zn-Cr-LDH-layered titanate nanohybrids as efficient visible light active photocatalysts. Of prime interest is that the chemical stability of the Zn-Cr-LDH is significantly improved upon the hybridization, a result of the protection of the LDH lattice by highly stable titanate layer. The present findings clearly demonstrate that the layer-by-layer-ordered assembly between inorganic 2D nanosheets is quite effective not only in improving the photocatalytic activity of the component semiconductors but also in synthesizing novel porous LDH-based hybrid materials with improved chemical stability. 相似文献
Efficient cathode-catalysts with multi-functional properties are essential for Li-CO2 battery, while the construction of them with simultaneously enhanced CO2 reduction and evolution kinetics is still challenging. Here, a kind of hybrid nanosheets based on Ru nanoparticles, Fe-TAPP and grapheme oxide (GO) has been designed through a one-pot self-assembly strategy. The Ru, Fe-porphyrin and GO based hybrid nanosheets (denoted as Ru/Fe-TAPP@GO) with integrated multi-components offer characteristics of ultrathin thickness (∼4 nm), high electro-redox property, uniformly dispersed morphology, and high electrical conductivity, etc. These features endow Ru/Fe-TAPP@GO with ultra-low overpotential (0.82 V) and fully reversible discharge/charge property with a high specific-capacity of 39,000 mAh/g within 2.0–4.5 V at 100 mA/g, which are much superior to Ru@GO and Fe-TAPP@GO. The achieved performance was presented as one of the best cathode-catalysts reported to date. The synergistically enhanced activity originated from the integrated hybrid nanosheets may provide a new pathway for designing efficient cathode-catalysts for Li-CO2 batteries. 相似文献

One of challenges existing in fiber‐based supercapacitors is how to achieve high energy density without compromising their rate stability. Owing to their unique physical, electronic, and electrochemical properties, two‐dimensional (2D) nanomaterials, e.g., molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) and graphene, have attracted increasing research interest and been utilized as electrode materials in energy‐related applications. Herein, by incorporating MoS2 and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanosheets into a well‐aligned multi‐walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) sheet followed by twisting, MoS2‐rGO/MWCNT and rGO/MWCNT fibers are fabricated, which can be used as the anode and cathode, respectively, for solid‐state, flexible, asymmetric supercapacitors. This fiber‐based asymmetric supercapacitor can operate in a wide potential window of 1.4 V with high Coulombic efficiency, good rate and cycling stability, and improved energy density. 相似文献
Mimicking the extracellular matrix to have a similar nanofibrous structure regarding electrical conductivity and mechanical properties would be highly beneficial for cardiac tissue engineering. The molybdenum disulfide, MoS2, and reduced graphene oxide, rGO, nanosheets are two‐dimensional nanomaterials which can be considered as great candidates for enhancing the electrical and mechanical properties of biological scaffolds for cardiac tissue engineering applications. In this study, MoS2 and rGO nanosheets were synthesized and incorporated into silk fibroin nanofibers, SF, via electrospinning method. Then, the human iPSCs transfected with TBX‐18 gene, TBX18‐hiPSCs, were seeded on these scaffolds for in vitro studies. The MoS2 and rGO nanosheets were studied by Raman spectroscopy. After incorporation of the nanosheets into SF nanofibers, the associated characterizations were carried out including scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, water contact angle, and mechanical test. Furthermore, SF, SF/MoS2, and SF/rGO scaffolds were used for in vitro studies. Herein, the scaffolds exhibited acceptable biocompatibility and considerable attachment to TBX18‐hiPSCs confirmed by 3‐(4, 5‐dimethylthiazol‐2‐yl)‐2, 5‐diphenyl tetrazolium bromide, MTT, assay, and scanning electron microscopy. Also, the real‐time PCR and immunostaining studies confirmed the maturity and upregulation of cardiac functional genes, including GATA‐4, c‐TnT, and α‐MHC in the SF/MoS2 and SF/rGO scaffolds compared with the bare SF one. Therefore, the reinforcement of these SF‐based scaffolds with MoS2 and rGO endues them as a suitable candidate for cardiac tissue engineering. 相似文献
