EDX and XPS measurements confirmed the successful cross-linking of GO with DSAC. The adsorption experiments were well described by the Harkin-Jura model and they followed pseudo-second order kinetics. The maximum adsorption capacity reached 666.67 mg/g at 318 K. Thermodynamic evaluation indicated a spontaneous, feasible, and endothermic in nature. Regenerability and reusability investigations demonstrated that the GO@DSAC composite could be reused for up to 10 desorption-adsorption cycles with a removal efficiency of 81.78%. The selective adsorptive performance of GO@DSAC was examined in a binary system containing Rhodamine B (RhB) and methylene orange (MO). The results showed a separation efficiency (α) of 98.89% for MB/MO and 93.66% for MB/RhB mixtures, underscoring outstanding separation capabilities of the GO@DSAC composite. Overall, the GO@DSAC composite displayed promising potential for the effective removal of cationic dyes from wastewater.]]> Thu 26 Oct 2023 15:39:53 AEDT ]]> Strengthening mechanism of PDLLA coated titania foam https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:21377 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:05:05 AEDT ]]> Electrochemical performance of rGO/NiCo2O4@ZnCo2O4 ternary composite material and the fabrication of an all-solid-state supercapacitor device https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46950 2O4@ZnCo2O4 (RNZC) ternary composite material is synthesized using a simple hydrothermal method. In this report, we demonstrate the effect of rGO concentration on the electrochemical behavior of the rGO/NiCo2O4@ZnCo2O4 composite materials. The specific capacity values of the ternary composite materials increase with rGO concentration up to 50 mg. Furthermore, on increasing the rGO concentration, the capacity value decreases. Among the prepared samples, the composite with 50 mg of rGO (RNZC3) exhibits a maximum specific capacity of 1197 C g–1 at a current density of 1 A g–1. We also demonstrate the design of a supercapacitor device with high specific energy density using RNZC3. The RNZC3//RNZC3 symmetric supercapacitor device exhibits a maximum energy density of 62 W h kg–1. In the case of an asymmetric supercapacitor device, the applied potential range is extended beyond the water decomposition range. Enhancement of the potential window ensures to achieve a high energy density. The RNZC3//rGO asymmetric supercapacitor device reaches the highest energy density of 71 W h kg–1 and the corresponding power density is 0.98 kW kg–1.]]> Fri 09 Dec 2022 14:35:39 AEDT ]]>
