Abstract:
Graphene/FePO
4·2H
2O composite precursors are prepared by homogeneous precipitation method with Fe (NO
3)
3·9H
2O, NaH
2PO
4·2H
2O and H
3PO
4, added in graphene oxide (GO).Results show that GO can change the morphology of FePO
4·2H
2O powders from flocculent to round.Then the round powders are concentrated by filtration, and raw materials are dropped in the products to make the powders re-grow.The final powders are spherical with homogeneous particle size (
D50=4.220 μm, the tap density is 1.31 g/m
3).The analysis of XRD, FT-IR and Raman data shows that GO is mainly reduced to grapheme which has great value for the preparation of graphene/FePO
4·2H
2O composite precursor.
