A hybrid material of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) sheets decorated with CdS-TiO2 NPs was prepared through a facile one-pot hydrothermal method. The assembly of CdS-TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) on RGO sheets was in-situ produced. As-synthesized nanocomposites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy disperse X-ray spectrum (EDS), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL). The obtained nanocomposites exhibited a good photocatalytic activity for the visible-light-induced decomposition of methylene blue (MB) dye and hydrolysis of ammonia borane. The results showed that by incorporation of CdS and TiO2 NPs on graphene oxide sheets the photocatalytic efficiency was enhanced. The significant enhancement in the photocatalytic activity of CdS-TiO2/RGO nanocomposites under visible light irradiation can be ascribed to the effect of CdS by acting as electron traps in TiO2 band gap. Reduced graphene oxide worked as the adsorbent, electron acceptor and a photo-sensitizer to efficiently enhance the dye photo. decomposition. Such nanocomposite photocatalyst might find potential application in a wide range of fields, including hydrogen energy generation, air purification, and wastewater treatment.
