3D shape of BiVO4-GO nanocomposite for excellent photocatalytic performance on standard and industrial dyes under visible light

In this investigation, 3D shaped BiVO4-GO composites have been set up with various proportions of BiVO4 by an altered hydrothermal strategy. This example is described by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), FT-IR, UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra (DRS), Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) procedures and UV-Vis spectroscopy. BiVO4 could cover well on the outside of graphene sheets. BiVO4-GO composites with a reasonable expansion measure of BiVO4 indicated higher photocatalytic movement than plain BiVO4 toward fluid stage corruption of methylene blue (MB), texbrite BAC-L and texbrite NFW-L under obvious light illumination.

Automated summary

3D shaped BiVO4-GO composites were prepared with various proportions of BiVO4 using a modified hydrothermal method. Characterization techniques such as XRD, SEM, FT-IR, UV-Vis DRS, Raman spectroscopy, TEM, and UV-Vis spectroscopy were used. The composites showed higher photocatalytic activity towards liquid phase degradation of dyes under visible light compared to plain BiVO4.
