Title: | A Facile Method for the Synthesis of a MoS2/g-C3N4 Photocatalyst | Authors: | Truong, Duy Huong Vo, Vien Van Gerven, Tom LEBLEBICI, Mumin enis |
Issue Date: | 2019 | Publisher: | Source: | CHEMICAL ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY, 42 (12) , p. 2691 -2699 | Abstract: | A MoS2/g-C3N4 composite was synthesized by a significantly simple method using Na2MoO4 and thiourea as precursors, without the need for a hydrothermal or an ultrasound step. The photocatalytic activity of the synthesized material was evaluated by the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) in aqueous solution under blue light. The composites with low content of MoS2 performed better than pure g-C3N4. Using a low-power light-emitting diode light source, an improvement of two orders of magnitude in the photochemical space-time yield was achieved, proving enhanced energy efficiency and productivity compared to earlier studies. The degradation pathway of organic pollutants was confirmed by the effects of selective scavengers. | Keywords: | Light-emitting diodes;MoS 2 /g-C 3 N 4 composites;Photocatalysis;Visible light | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/34524 | ISSN: | 0930-7516 | e-ISSN: | 1521-4125 | DOI: | 10.1002/ceat.201900275 | ISI #: | WOS:000485454600001 | Category: | A1 | Type: | Journal Contribution |
