Abstract
AbstractReduced graphene oxide-based nanocomposites are eminent materials having diverse applications including environmental remediation. The present work emphasizes the facile one-step co-reduction method for synthesizing silver nanoparticle (Ag NPs) decorated reduced graphene oxide (RGO) for catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol. FDTD simulation studies justify the experimental results, and XRD studies confirmed the reduction of graphene oxide and the formation of Ag NPs with reduced graphene oxide (AgRGO) composite. Raman analysis complements the structure, crystallinity, and defects in the fabricated material. XPS analysis verifies the reduction of graphene oxide (GO) into RGO and the decoration of metallic Ag on the surface of RGO. FESEM image showed the decoration of Ag NPs on the surface of RGO. AgRGO exhibited appreciable catalytic performance for reducing 4-nitrophenol in the presence of sodium borohydride compared to GO and RGO.
