Synthesis of CdIn(2)S(4) Microsphere and Its Photocatalytic Activity for Azo Dye Degradation

CdIn(2)S(4) was prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis. The prepared CdIn(2)S(4) was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FSEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-Vis DRS), and N(2)-sorption techn...

Descripción
Sumario:CdIn(2)S(4) was prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis. The prepared CdIn(2)S(4) was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FSEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-Vis DRS), and N(2)-sorption techniques. Aqueous photocatalytic activity was evaluated by the decomposition of methyl orange under visible light irradiation. The results indicate that the prepared CdIn(2)S(4) has spherical morphology with mesoporous structure which can efficiently degrade methyl orange in water. The sample prepared at 500°C exhibits the optimized photocatalytic activity.
