摘要
An easy method for green and low-temperature (40 degrees C) reduction of graphene oxide (GO) by increasing the antioxidant activity of green tea polyphenols (GTPs) in the presence of iron was developed. The reduction level (obtained by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) and electrical conductivity (obtained by current-voltage measurement) of the GO sheets reduced by GTPs in the presence of iron were comparable to those of hydrazine-reduced GO and much better than those of the GO reduced by only GTPs (in the absence of iron) at reduction temperatures of 40-80 degrees C. Raman spectroscopy indicated that application of GTPs in the presence of iron, in contrast to hydrazine, resulted in better recovering of the sp(2)-hybridized structure of the sheets. The lasting water dispersion of the polyphenolic-reduced GO sheets in the presence of iron was assigned to pi-pi adsorption of Fe2+-polyphenol radicals on surface of the reduced sheets. A mechanism describing the role of iron in the reduction of the GO by epicatechin gallate and epigallocatechin gallate of green tea was also proposed. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
