If I prepare WO3 nano-plates and graphene nano-platelets, and I want to make their nano-composites by co-precipitation method or any other easier method! How can I prepare their composites?
ball milling is most common way for dry powder. if it is wet and dispersed in any liquid media and you want to dry it in mixed condition then use spray drying technique ...
You can use the precipitation method having graphene in the dispersed solution. However you have to control the size of WO3 through solution chemistry.
Graphene oxide can be mixed with ammonium tungstate hydrate and citric acid in 1:1:1.5 molar ratio and WO3 particles incorporated with grapheme matrix can be obtained. But you have to keep the temperature above 200oC so that WO3 particles are formed and grapheme oxide is reduced to grapheme. Try this method and you will be getting WO3 nanoparticles entrapped in grapheme matrix.
