摘要

We report a cost-effective, single-step combustion synthesis of γ-Fe2O3/graphitic/graphene oxide (GO) hybrid nanocomposite. Comprehensive characterization using XRD, EDS, FESEM, TEM, XPS, Raman, FTIR, thermal analysis, and BET confirmed the material's structure and properties. Raman spectra exhibited D and G bands with an ID/IG ratio of 0.97, indicating defects in the carbon matrix. FTIR analysis identified a C–O stretching band at 1140 cm⁻1, confirming the presence of GO. The nanocomposite displayed a type IV isotherm with a BET surface area of 50.24 m2/g, suitable for catalytic applications. Magnetic measurements revealed coercivities of ~85 Oe at 300 K and ~690 Oe at 2 K, characteristic of soft magnetic materials. Electrochemical studies indicated non-redox diffusion-controlled reactions with a charge transfer resistance of ~135 Ω. The photocatalytic methylene blue dye degradation efficiency γ-Fe2O3/graphitic/graphene oxide (GO) was attributed to structural defects within the composite.
