Development photoinduced photocatalysts is a significant approach to improve photocatalytic activity and stability. Herein, we successfully prepared ZnxCd1−xS/CeO2 composites by a facile method. It is found that the ZnxCd1−xS/CeO2 composites show significant enhancement in photocatalytic activity for methyl orange (MO) degradation under visible and UV light irradiation. The degradation efficiency reaches up to 3.7 times higher than that of pure CeO2 under visible light irradiation. Moreover, the ZnxCd1−xS/CeO2 samples have almost no loss of photocatalytic activity after five recycles, indicating good photocatalytic stability of the samples. The attractive photocatalytic activity of the ZnxCd1−xS/CeO2 samples could b e attributed to the robust charge carriers transfer and separation.

化学沉淀法构建 ZnxCd1−xS/CeO2 复合材料以提高光催化活性和稳定性

开发光诱导光催化剂是提高光催化活性和稳定性的重要途径。在这里，我们成功地准备了锌X光盘1-X小号/CEO2用简单的方法合成。发现该锌X光盘1-X小号/CEO2复合材料在可见光和紫外光照射下对甲基橙 (MO) 降解的光催化活性显着增强。降解效率最高可达纯品的3.7倍CEO2在可见光照射下。此外，锌X光盘1-X小号/CEO2样品经过五次循环后光催化活性几乎没有损失，表明样品具有良好的光催化稳定性。具有吸引力的光催化活性锌X光盘1-X小号/CEO2样品可归因于强大的电荷载流子转移和分离。
