Modification of titania with rGO has been found to lead to better photocatalytic properties. The highest photocatalytic performance was obtained at calcination temperature of 600 degrees C. Electron paramagnetic resonance/ferromagnetic resonance measurements showed oxygen defects and ferromagnetic ordering systems. The linewidth of resonance line of oxygen defects decreased linearly with calcination temperature increasing up to 600 degrees C and an accompanying growth of mean crystallite size of anatase phase. The integrated resonance line intensity of oxygen defects depended on the calcination temperature and caused a very large increase in the intensity of resonance lines originating from oxygen defects, because inert atmosphere of calcination was enhanced by graphene presence. The occurrence of magnetic ordering system significantly influenced the performance of photocatalytic processes by changing the amount of oxygen defects.enCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 Internationalmagnetic oxygen defectsferromagnetic ordering systemstitania nanocomposites modified with reduced graphene oxide (rGO)electron paramagnetic resonanceferromagnetic resonanceinżynieria chemicznaArticleNOR/POLNORCCS/PhotoRed/0007/ 2019-00
