▎ 摘　　要

Graphene-TiO2 was obtained by reduction of graphite oxide by the hydrothermal method. Using photocatalytic activity to reduce carbon dioxide to methanol and formic acid was investigated in this study. The results show that the graphene loading affects the absorption of light in the visible light region. A larger surface area can also improve the catalytic activity. The largest yield of methanol and formic acid, under light of 365 nm, can reach 160 and 150 mu mol g(-1), respectively, with 8.5% graphene loading. An increase in graphene loading can enhance photocatalytic performance, but too much will also decrease the reduction efficiency by shielding the light from reaching the catalytic surface. The effect of pH was also investigated. The mechanism of the reaction was also discussed in this study. Implications: Graphene-TiO2 hybrids were prepared by the hydrothermal method. Surface area and visible light adsorption increased with the graphene loading. Increased graphene loading improved the methanol and formic acid production. Too much graphene loading will decrease the reduction efficiency. The effect of pH shows that the HCO3- species prefers the formation of formic acid. The mechanism of the reaction was also discussed in this study.
