Abstract

Anatase TiO2-graphene (ATG) nanocomposites were prepared via a facile one-step solvothermal method. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, Raman spectra and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). During the solvothermal reaction, anatase TiO2 nanoparticles with diameters ranging from 5 to 10 nm were deposited on the carbon sheets, and the deoxygenation of graphite oxide (GO) was achieved at the same time. Compared with the mere anatase TiO2 nanoparticles, the combination of anatase TiO2 nanoparticles and graphene produced a significant effect on its photocatalytic activity evaluated by the degradation test of Reactive Black BL-G (RB BL-G) under UV irradiation. Our studies also determined the relative influences of the mass ratio of TiO2/GO and heat treatment temperature on the photocatalytic activities.
