In this work a composite of Graphene Oxide (GO) supported α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles (GF) has been synthesized via a simple co-precipitation method. Structural, and morphological study of nanocomposite (GF) are examined by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The XRD study indicates that Graphene oxide is implanted with well crystalline α-Fe2O3 which has pure rhombohedral phase. Surface morphological study of SEM depicts sphere-like shaped α-Fe2O3 particles with formation of clusters have been embedded on Graphene oxide nano sheet. TEM image reveals that GO sheet acts as a good supporting material for anchoring nano sized α-Fe2O3 particles. Efficiency of dye removal of the prepared GF composite has been measured by the degradation of methylene blue (MB) in an aqueous solution under visible …
