Synthesis and application of rGO/CoFe2O4 composite for catalytic degradation of methylene blue on heterogeneous Fenton-like oxidation

175 A one-pot solvothermal reaction was used to prepare reduced graphene oxide (rGO)/CoFe2O4 composite by using graphene oxide, Fe(acac)3 and CoCl2∙6H2O as starting materials. Graphene oxide was reduced to graphene, and the CoFe2O4 microspheres were simultaneously grown on the carbon basal planes under the conditions generated in the solvothermal system. Monodisperse CoFe2O4 nanoparticles with uniform shape were evenly dispersed on the graphene.
