One-step synthesis, characterization, and visible light photocatalytic activity of pure and Zn-doped SnO2 nanoparticles

Facile Synthesis of CeO2/CoWO4 Hybrid Nanocomposites for High Photocatalytic Performance and Investigation of Antimicrobial Activity

“…The photodegradation performance of the asobtained samples (50 mg) was measured by the degradation of MB dye (20 ppm; 100 mL solution; 10 mg/L) under visible-light exposure (300 W Xe lamp by k > 420 nm cutoff filter in a Pyrex photocatalytic vessel). 16 Prior to exposure, the suspension was subjected to constant magnetic stirring for around 30 min in the dark to confirm that the dyes might extend the absorption-desorption equilibrium on the photocatalyst surface and dyes. 17 At specific intervals, 2.5 mL of the suspension was extracted by centrifugation for 15 min of light irradiation, and the concentration of the composing solution was explored by gauging the concentrated absorbance of the MB dye in the peak at $ 664 nm.…”

Binary Zn-Doped SnO2/Al2O3 Nanotube Composites for Visible-Light-Driven Photocatalytic Degradation of Basic Blue 41

“…These techniques are based on the production of powerful oxidizing radicals, especially • OH. A variety of semiconductor materials such as TiO 2 , SnO 2 , WO 3 , ZnO, CdS, BiVO 4 , and so on have been commonly used as photocatalyst to perform reductive and oxidative reactions on its surface. Among these candidates for photocatalysts, SnO 2 has been recognized as a promising and attractive material because of its abundance, special photocatalytic properties, inexpensiveness, lack of toxicity, and high photochemical stability .…”
