Microstructural characterization of graphene aerogel/ATO nanocomposite synthesized by hydrothermal method

The development of lightweight, thermally insulating nanocomposites with enhanced structural integrity is crucial for applications in aerospace, electronics, and energy systems. However, achieving stable and uniform incorporation of functional nanoparticles into graphene aerogels presents a significant challenge. In this study, a hydrothermal method is used to synthesize graphene oxide (GO) aerogels embedded with antimony-doped tin oxide (ATO) nanoparticles. This approach is chosen for its ability to ensure homogeneous nanoparticle dispersion while preserving the aerogel structure. The characterization techniques employed include Field Emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and x-ray diffraction (XRD). These findings demonstrate the potential of ATO-modified graphene aerogels as advanced thermal insulators and nanocomposites for high-performance applications.
