A stable aqueous suspension of functional graphene oxide/silver nanocomposite (FGO/Ag) was prepared in an alkaline medium by a simple room temperature stirring method. Functional graphene oxide (FGO) served as substrate, reducing agent and stabilizer for the silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs). The pH of...
