Opis

This study involved preparation of graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (RGO) using Hummer method and chemical method respectively. These carbon nanomaterials were used as starting material to make novel functionalize with thiocarbohydrazide (TCH) which was prepared by reacting CS2 with hydrazine to form GO or RGO- 4-amino,5-substituted 1H,1,2,4 triazole 5(4H) thion (ASTT) , (GOT) and( RGOT) respectively via cyclocondensation reaction. Also MnO2 nanorod was prepared to form hybridized with GOT and RGOT. A commercial multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and functionalization with carboxylic groups' (f-MWCNT) and its nanocomposite with GOT were also prepared. All carbon nanomaterials were characterized with different techniques such as Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscope (AFM) scanning electron microscope (SEM) and elemental analysis. XRD showed presence diffraction peak at 11.95 for GO and this diffraction disappeared for RGO. Diffraction peak of crystal planes for MnO2 matched well with standard data. The diameter of MnO2 nanotubes was determined using Debye Scherer equation and found to be 11.6 nm.
