Photocatalytic and adsorption property of ZnS–TiO/RGO ternary composites for methylene blue degradation by YL Qin, WW Zhao, Z Sun, XY Liu, GL Shi, ZY Liu, DR Ni, ZY Ma

“…The results showed that the ZnS–TiO 2 /RGO nanocomposite prepared by tetrabutyl titanate exhibited better photocatalytic and adsorbance activity for methylene blue under visible light irradiation and its photocatalytic efficiency reached 90% in 60-min light irradiation, almost 1.5 times that of the synthesized ZnS–TiO 2 /RGO by P25, which was attributed to a cooperative reaction because of an increase of photo-absorption effect of graphene sheets and photocatalytic effect of ZnS nanoparticles. The adsorbance activity for ZnS–TiO 2 /RGO–tetrabutyl titanate) reached 48%, which was almost 1.7 times higher than that of ZnS–TiO 2 /RGO-P25 and almost 3.7 times higher than that of ZnS/RGO.…”
