title: Ultrasound assisted synthesis of Sn nanoparticles-stabilized reduced graphene oxide nanodiscs.
abstract: Sn nanoparticles-stabilized reduced graphene oxide (RGO) nanodiscs were synthesized by a sonochemical method using SnCl2 and graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets as precursors in a polyol medium. TEM and XPS were used to characterize the Sn-stabilized RGO nanodiscs.
