To enhance reusability and to maintain higher efficiency in degradation, Mn3O4/rGO nanocomposites were synthesized by a facile thermal treatment. Initially, Mn3O4 nanoparticles were prepared and analyzed by powder XRD and HR-SEM. The composition of manganese oxide was varied to obtain different nanocomposites. The Mn3O4 ions were found to be well anchored onto the rGO surface. The obtained samples were taken for the photodegradation studies with phenol as the pollutant. Under a dynamic mode, the absorption efficiency was found to be maximum for the MnsR0.75 sample for phenol.
