Abstract
|
Perovskites have been studied for several promising environmental field, but still challenging. We reported the successfully synthesis of the Zn-doped CdTiO3/TiO2 nanocomposites (ZDCT-NCPs) via the hydrothermal method. Characterization of the product was carriedoutbyy(FT-IR),X-raydiffraction(XRD),Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Analysis (EDX). The photocatalytic properties of Zn-doped CdTiO3/TiO2 were studied by degradation of congo red (CR) under sunlight irradiation. The results reveal unique sunlight photocatalytic ability for the degradation of congo red (CR). The experimental demonstrated that 0.03 g of Zn-doped CdTiO3/TiO2 nanocomposites (ZDCT-NCPs) can degrade (up to 90% and 15 min) 50 cc of congo red (CR) solution.
