Abstract

A highly dispersed and versatile anatase TiO2 nanocrystal on graphene sheets (TiO2–G) was synthesized by a simple solvent thermal method. The structural and optical properties of the as-synthesized samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV–Vis absorption spectroscopy and Raman spectra. The results show that the anatase TiO2 nanocrystals with approximately 20–30 nm size are well distributed on the graphene sheets, and the introduction of graphene increases the light absorption intensity in visible light region. Noticeably, the TiO2–G exhibits excellent photocatalytic activity and reusability, and can be applied to the degradation of various organic dyes, such as methyl orange (MO), methyl blue (MB) and rhodamine-B (RhB). This unique TiO2–G composite photocatalyst proved to have great potentials for organic contaminants degradation in wastewater.
