In this paper, the hexagonal Zn2GeO4 nanorods grown on the surface of carbon
fibers (CFs) that pre-activated
by sodium hypochlorite were prepared by a facile solvothermal method. The
possible growth mechanism had been investigated by theoretical calculation and simulation experiment by growth of Zn2GeO4 on 2D flat surface of graphene. The (113) crystal facet of Zn2GeO4 nanorods attached to CFs surface was the most
stable structure. Due to the synergistic effect between photocatalytic
acivity of Zn2GeO4 and excellent
adsorption capacity of CFs, the
resultant Zn2GeO4/CFs composites exhibited
excellent photocatalytic activity for oxidation of p-toluidine.
