The transition of graphene from the lab to consumer goods is still a challenging job that necessitates efficient and cost-effective large-scale graphene production. This study combines electrochemical exfoliation in an aqueous solution of sulfuric acid (1M H 2 SO[Formula: see text] and hydrogen peroxide (3% H 2 O[Formula: see text] followed by thermal deoxygenation at a temperature of 800[Formula: see text]C within the ambient environment. This method allows the inexpensive synthesis of pristine graphene for various industrial applications. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) results for pristine graphene showed a distinct peak at 2[Formula: see text] with a corresponding interplanar distance ([Formula: see text] of 3.3754 Å and a crystallite size of 18 nm. XRD statistics indicated that the crystal structure of the original graphene was preserved. The crystalline structure was recovered and the interplaner distance was decreased following the high temperature thermal reduction. According to Raman spectroscopy, the impurity degree (I[Formula: see text]/I[Formula: see text] region fraction of pristine graphene was 0.211. This indicates that the original graph produced by the current method has little distortion. Raman analysis shows that there is a linear red shift in peaks D-band (D), G-band (G), and second order of the D-band (2D) due to the increase in phonon–phonon nonlinear interactions with increasing temperature, so that peaks (D), (G) and (2D) shifts are shown. The majority of the functional groups were discovered to be eliminated after high temperature thermal treatment. The three-dimensional graphene sheet is highly defined and intricately coupled in the microstructure analysis, resulting in a laxer and porous structure. When treated at a temperature below 800[Formula: see text]C, there was only minor damage to the reduced graphene oxide (RGO) microstructure. The results of the Atom Force Microscope (AFM) demonstrated that the flaws spread over time from the layer boundaries and pores to the edges and eventually resulted in a separate RGO archipelago. According to TGA analysis, at temperatures up to 800[Formula: see text]C, the RGO sheet loses up to 45% of its weight.

CdO/CdS nanocomposites have been synthesized via the solution combustion route. These nanocomposites have been characterized in terms of XRD, FESEM, EDS, UV-visible and FTIR spectroscopy. The crystallinity and the crystallite size of the as-synthesized CdO/CdS nanocomposites were calculated from XRD, whereas the surface morphology and chemical purity were obtained from FESEM and EDS analysis. Further, all the samples were used as photocatalyst for the degradation of methyl orange (MO) dye under UV-Visible irradiation. The rate constant, [Formula: see text], was obtained by the Langmuir–Hinshelwood model. From [Formula: see text] values, it can be observed that the rate constant increases on increasing the amount of photocatalyst due to an increase in surface area. The rate constant value for CdO/CdS nanocomposite annealed at 615[Formula: see text]C was found to be very low, which may be largely due to loss in crystallinity at this higher temperature. Further, we compared our results with those reported in the literature and it was observed that CdO/CdS nanocomposites act as a better photocatalyst than others.

Using the mixed solution of [Formula: see text]-butanol and ethanol as solvent, the sodalite nanocrystal aggregate was prepared by the solvothermal method. The influences of crystallization temperature, molar ratio Na/Al, crystallization time and silane concentration on the morphology, crystallite size, degree of crystallization and pore structure of the as-prepared samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), BET, FTIR, Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results reveal that the sodalite nanocrystals are aggregated by self-assembly into the micropore–mesopore–macropore structure. Higher crystallization temperature and longer crystallization time are conducive to the growth of sodalite nanocrystals. It is a necessary condition for the formation of sodalite nanocrystals to keep high molar ratio Na/Al. The higher the molar ratio Na/Al, the more favorable the crystallization of sodalite nanocrystals. The appropriate concentration of silane agent is conducive to the preparation of smaller crystal-sized sodalite nanocrystals. After removing the silane agent by pickling, the sodalite nanocrystal aggregate is a multistage porous structure with the pore volume of 1.0133[Formula: see text]mL/g and the specific surface area of 449.73[Formula: see text]m 2 /g.
