Abstract

In this paper, RGO/titanium dioxide nanocomposite is prepared by solvothermal method, and its photocatalytic properties are discussed. While graphene oxide is reduced to graphene, anatase titanium dioxide particles are grown on the surface of graphene. With the prolongation of solvothermal time, the active groups on the surface of graphene oxide decrease, and the reduction is more thorough. At the same time, the grain size of titanium dioxide tends to increase. Compared with the pure titanium dioxide, the photocatalytic activity of RGO/TiO2 nanocomposite is obviously improved.
