Synthesis of mesoporous SiO2/Cu2O–graphene nanocomposites and their highly efficient photocatalytic performance for dye pollutants

A mesoporous SiO2/Cu2O–graphene composite, a novel material, was successfully synthesized using a self-assembly method with tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS). During the reaction, Cu2O and silica nanoparticles were loaded on the graphene sheets. The mesoporous structure, morphology, pore diameter, por...
