Synthesis and Characterization of Core-shell Nanoparticles Anchored Reduced Graphene Oxide (rGO) and Kinetic Investigation of Oxygen Evolution from Water Oxidation in the Presence of these Nanocatalysts, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Rahman Setayesh, Shaherbanoo (Supervisor) ; Taherinia, Davood (Co-Supervisor)
Abstract
The reaction of oxygen evolution, in other words, the process of water oxidation in the presence of heterogeneous photocatalysts such as g-C3N4, Co/g-C3N4 /rGO, Ni/g-C3N4/rGO, CoNi/g-C3N4 / rGO, Co2Ni1/g-C3N4/rGO, and Co1Ni2 /g-C3N4 /rGO were studied. The characterization of these nanocatalysts was done by XRD, SEM, FT-IR, BET, DRS, CHN, and TGA techniques. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was used to check the thermal stability of these nanocatalysts. The FT-IR spectroscopy was used to identify the functional groups in graphitic carbon nitride and to confirm g-C3N4 synthesis. According to BET results, the pore sizes were determined which were at the nano and macro scale. It was found that...
