In this paper, using thiolated graphene oxide (GO‐O‐SH) as substrate, gold nanorods (AuNRs) covalently linked to the GO surface by in‐situ seed growth method were first reported. The as‐prepared composites were characterized by UV–vis spectrum, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT‐IR). Experimental results indicated that the introduction of short flexible organic chain between GO and AuNRs contributed to the homogenous synthesis of gold rods, and uniform gold nanorods with aspect ratio within 3~8 were covalently linked to the surface of GO with high stability and yield. The strategy represented an outstanding improvement in comparison to the traditional route for fabricating GO@AuNRs composites. Furthermore, based on coupling of the two nanomaterials, the composites could act as high sensitive Raman probe with limit of detection (LOD) reaching 1 × 10−12 M.

We report a simple and green approach to synthesize stable water-dispersible silver nanoparticles decorated by magnetic Fe3O4 and graphene oxide (GO). These results of UV-Vis spectra, along with TEM and SEM indicated that the water-dispersible silver nanoparticles had cluster flat structure and retained the optical properties of the original silver particle. Combining the advantages of Fe3O4 and GO, the composite nanoparticles showed enhanced catalytic activity with good recycling utilization rate by magnetic separation.

With low content in CaO, blast furnace slag is a unique local engineering material with characteristic of multi-hole structure and high strength. According to present technical stardard, mix composition of cement stabilized slag is determined by indoor test in different proportion of cement content. Meanwhile, in pilot project, field tests are conducted to both cement stabilized slag and traditional aggregate and indicate cement stabilized slag has obvious superiority and could be adopted completely in application in road base project.
