BACKGROUND: Photocatalytic degradation of organic compounds, including nitrophenol, is one of the most popular approaches to pollution control and disposal. Graphene-based nanocomposites have attracted considerable attention in photocatalytic research owing to their excellent electrical, thermal and mechanical properties. In this work, TiO2material was modified with graphene by a hydrothermal method, the photocatalytic performance of the prepared catalyst was evaluated by degradation of 4-nitrophenol, which is a highly toxic, stable and carcinogenic organic pollutant. RESULTS: The characteriza...
