Abstract

Cerium dioxide/graphitic carbon nitride (CeO2/g-C3N4) visible-light-induced photocatalysts were successfully prepared by a simple mixing-calcination technique. The CeO2/g-C3N4 nanocomposites were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TG), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-vis diffuse reflection spectroscopy (DRS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), photoluminescence (PL) and the photocurrent-time (PT) measurements. Photocatalytic activities of the prepared samples were examined by studying the degradation of methylene blue (MB) and 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) under visible light irradiation (>400 nm). The CeO2/g-C3N4 composites showed higher photocatalytic activity than that of CeO2 and g-C3N4. The optimum photoactivity of CeO2/g-C3N4 (13.0%) exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity in pollutant treatment and an enhanced photocurrent under visible light. These enhanced activities could be attributed to the synergetic effect between g-C3N4 and CeO2. The increasing photocatalytic activity mechanism was also discussed.

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.
