Novel Fe2TiO5/reduced graphene oxide heterojunction photocatalyst with improved adsorption capacity and visible light photoactivity: experimental and DFT approach

Reduced graphene oxide and Ag wrapped TiO2 photocatalyst for enhanced visible light photocatalysis

The CNT modified white C3N4 composite photocatalyst with enhanced visible-light response photoactivity.

A novel, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNT) modified white C3N4 composite (CNT/white C3N4) with enhanced visible-light-response photoactivity was prepared. The white C3N4 and CNT combined together and formed the CNT/white C3N4 composite due to electrostatically-driven self-assembly with the hydrothermal method. The as-prepared white C3N4 and CNT/white C3N4 composite photocatalyst were characte...

Graphitic Carbon Nitride/Reduced Graphene Oxide/Silver Oxide Nanostructures with Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity in Visible Light

Visible light active graphitic carbon nitride/reduced graphene oxide/silver oxide nanocomposites with a p-n heterojunction structure were synthesized by chemical deposition methods. Prepared samples were characterized by different physico-chemical technics such as XRD, FTIR, SEM, TEM and DRS. Photocatalytic activity investigated by analyzing the Acid blue 92 (AB92) concentration during the time...

Photocatalytic Degradation of Toluene, Butyl Acetate and Limonene under UV and Visible Light with Titanium Dioxide-Graphene Oxide as Photocatalyst

Photocatalysis is a promising technique to reduce volatile organic compounds indoors. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a frequently-used UV active photocatalyst. Because of the lack of UV light indoors, TiO2 has to be modified to get its working range shifted into the visible light spectrum. In this study, the photocatalytic degradation of toluene, butyl acetate and limonene was investigated under UV...

An undoped, single-phase oxide photocatalyst working under visible light.

A novel photocatalyst, PbBi2Nb2O9 has been discovered that shows high activities for degradation of organic pollutants, generation of photocurrent, and water decomposition into O2 or H2, all under visible right irradiation (lambda >/= 420 nm). This is the first example of an undoped, single-phase oxide photocatalyst that shows such reactivity. Its quantum yields are much higher than those for m...
