In this work, zinc ferrite magnetic and zinc ferrite-graphene oxide nanocomposite were synthesized through a facile hydrothermal method and dye removal capability as an adsorbent were studied. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy FT-IR, X-ray diffraction XRD and scanning electron microscopy SEM were used to characterize the synthesized nanocomposite. The UV-Vis results showed that the additi...

In this work, we synthesized graphene oxide from silk cocoon embarking its new dimension as a magnetic fluorophore when compared with its present technical status, which at best is for extracting silk as a biomaterial for tissue engineering applications. We produced graphene oxide by pyrolysing the silk cocoon in an inert atmosphere. The collected raw carbon is oxidized by nitric acid that read...

up to now, lots of materials such as active carbon, iron, manganese, zirconium, and metal oxides have been widely used for removal of dyes from contaminated water. among these, ferrite nanoparticle is an interesting magnetic material due to its moderate saturation magnetization, excellent chemical stability and mechanical hardness. graphene, a new class of 2d carbonaceous material with atom thi...

Large scale preparation of single-layer graphene and graphene oxide is of great importance due to their potential applications. We report a simple room temperature method for the exfoliation of graphene oxide using covalent modification of graphene oxide with ferrocene to obtain single-layer graphene oxide sheets. The samples were characterized by FESEM, HRTEM, AFM, EDAX, FT-IR, Raman and Mössb...

the nonlocal nonlinear buckling of a double layer graphene sheet (dlgs) covered by zinc oxide (zno) piezoelectric layers is investigated in this study. the surrounding circumstances of the system are considered as a pasternak foundation including spring constants and a shear layer. graphene sheets are subjected to longitudinal magnetic field and biaxial forces. on the other hand, the zno piezoe...

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. furthermore, this stu...

A new modified magnetic Graphene Oxide with Chitosan and Cysteine wassynthesized for removing Pb2+ ions from aqueous solution. The properties of thisadsorbent were characterized by Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM),Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) and Energy Dispersive Analysis Systemof X-ray (EDAX). Physicochemical parameters such as effect of pH, c...

We developed a new method for fabricating reduced graphene oxide (RGO)/Fe-oxide structures from graphene oxide (GO), and for the simultaneous vertical alignment of the RGOs using a single-step process that involves a magnetic field and the fixation of the aligned structures by means of direct evaporation of the films.

direct electron transferring of glucose oxidase was investigated   on reduced graphene and graphene oxide templates. the direct electrochemistry   glucose oxidase on   graphene showed a cyclic voltammograms corresponding to the fad/fadh 2   redox couple with an anodic, cathodic and formal potential of -430, -460 and   -445 mv, respectively in 0.1 m phosphate buffer solution and air saturated   ...
