Abstract

In this work, brookite nanosheets with the preferential growth plane of (211) were synthesized using graphene oxide as sacrificing template. This experiment has been performed by a modified hydrothermal method at 100 °C at the presence of NaOH near saturated solution. Measurements were performed by means of X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, scanning electron microscopy and UV–Visible absorption spectroscopy. The results showed that brookite phase of titanium oxide has been formed in low temperatures on the expense of conversion of graphene oxide to Na2CO3 phase that during its growth, graphene oxide transforms into Na2CO3 phase.
