Abstract
ABSTRACTMg(OH)2 nanoparticles anchored on graphene oxide (GO) were facilely prepared by a hydrothermal method. The main diameter scale of nanoparticles on the graphene sheet was about 25–50 nm shown by transmission electron microscopy characterization results. X-ray diffraction results indicated that the nanoparticles are in accordance with the data on magnesium hydroxide. This material exhibited significantly improved heat storage capacity and a higher hydration rate than pure magnesium oxide, and the introduction of GO leads to greatly increased thermal conductivity of the nanocomposites. As a novel thermochemical heat storage material, Mg(OH)2/GO has huge potential for high-efficiency energy systems.
