摘要
Ag@Ag2O/RGO nanocomposites with different loads of Ag (0.4%-8.5%) were synthesized using a simple deposition method in the presence of a triblock copolymer template at different annealing temperatures (250 degrees C and 400 degrees C). All samples were characterized with various techniques such as XRD, FTIR, Raman, TEM-SAED, N-2 sorptiometry and UV-Vis diffuse reflectance. The supercapacitor performance of the samples was measured. Besides, the catalytic performances of the samples towards 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) reduction were tested under dark conditions. The results revealed the well dispersion of Ag and Ag2O moieties on RGO with crystallite size in the range of 17-34 nm. The nanocomposite Ag@Ag2O/RGO annealed at 400 degrees C exhibited the highest reduction rate constant for 4-NP reduction (0.01 s(-1)). In addition, this composite has shown the highest specific capacitance of 312Fg(-1) at scan rate of 20 mV s(-1) and 119 F g(-1) at a current density of 11 mA g(-1).
