Abstract

Abstract A novel molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) composite photocatalyst was synthesized using a low temperature hydrothermal method. MoS 2 nanoparticles formed on g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets greatly enhanced the photocatalytic activity of g-C 3 N 4 . The photocatalyst was tested for the degradation of methyl orange (MO) under simulated solar light. Composite 3.0 wt.% MoS 2 /g-C 3 N 4 showed the highest photocatalytic activity for MO decomposition. MoS 2 nanoparticles can increase the interfacial charge transfer and thus prevent the recombination of photo-generated electron–hole pairs. The novel MoS 2 /g-C 3 N 4 composite is therefore shown as a promising catalyst for photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants using solar energy.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
