Synthesis and Characterization of Pb(OH)I – Graphene Nanocomposite via Combination of Sonochemical and Hydrothermal Methods

Pb(OH)I-graphene nanocomposite, has been successfully prepared via combination sonochemical andhydrothermal methods. Lead nitrate, lithium iodide and N,N-bis(salicylidene)-ethylenediamine (H2salen) were applied asstarting reagents to fabricate Pb(OH)I-graphene nanocomposite. For preparing nanoparticles (NPs)-graphene compositepost-graphenization method was applied. In synthesis NPs-graphene with post-graphenization method, graphite oxide asstarting reagent was synthesized via Hummer method. The effect of ultrasonic irradiation and H2salen were investigatedon the particle size of nanoparticles and their distribution on the graphene sheets. H2salen and sonication treatment wereconfirmed to be the crucial factors that determining the formation of one-dimensional Pb(OH)I micro/nanostructures onthe surface of graphene nanosheets. The as-produced nanocmposites were characterized with the aid of XRD, SEM, TEMand EDS.
