Graphene with extraordinary thermal, mechanical and electrical properties offers possibilities in a vanety of applications. Recent advances in the synthesis of graphene composites using supercritical fluids are highlighted. Supercritical fluids exhibit unique features for the synthesis of composites due to its low viscosity, high diffusivity, near-zero surface tension, and tunability. Here, we report the preparation of tin dioxide (SnO2)/graphene nanocomposite through supercritical CO2 method. It demonstrates that the SnO2 nanoparticles are homogeneously dispersed on the surface of graphene sheets with a particle size of 2.3-2.6 nm. The SnO2/graphene nanocomposites exhibit higher lithium storage capacity and better cycling performance compared to that of the similar CNT nanocomposites. The reported synthetic procedure is straightforward, green and inexpensive. And it may be readily adopted to produce large quantities of graphene based nanocomposites.
