Abstract
Gadolinium oxide/graphene oxide (Gd2O3/GO) nanocomposite has been prepared by a simple method in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and employed as an excellent catalyst for common organic dyes degradation under ultrasound. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectrum (XPS) data revealed that the Gd2O3 nanoparticles were successfully attached on the surface of GO sheets. The High efficiencies of common dyes (methylene blue, methyl orange, methyl violet rhodamine B, fuchsin base, thymolphthalein, crystal violet and eosin) degradation within 15 min illustrated that the as-synthesized nanocomposite was an ultrafast, stable, recyclable, and economical material for environment related applications.
