Silver-decorated SrTiO nanoparticles for high-performance supercapacitors and effective remediation of hazardous pollutants.

SrTiO/Ag nanocomposites were synthesized using a facile wet impregnation method, employing rigorous experimental techniques for comprehensive characterization. XRD, FTIR, UV, PL, FESEM, and HRTEM were meticulously utilized to elucidate their structural, functional, morphological, and optical properties. The electrochemical performance of the SrTiO/Ag nanocomposite was rigorously assessed, revealing an impressive specific capacitance of 850 F/g at a current density of 1 A.

Solar-activated and hydrothermally synthesized effective rGO/AgS composites for the destruction of naphthol green B dye and antibacterial applications.

Graphene-based nanocomposites are developing as a new class of materials with several uses. The varied weight percentages of rGO on AgS catalysts were synthesized using a simple hydrothermal process and employed for the decomposition of anionic dye naphthol green B (NGB) under solar light. The reduced graphene oxide-based silver sulfide (rGO/AgS) nanoparticles were then examined using XRD, SEM, EDS, HR-TEM, XPS, UV-DRS, and PL analysis.

Hydrothermal synthesis and photocatalytic application of ZnS-Ag composites based on biomass-derived carbon aerogel for the visible light degradation of methylene blue.

A facile and cost-effective hydrothermal followed by precipitation method is employed to synthesize visible light-driven ZnS-Ag ternary composites supported on carbon aerogel (CA). Extensive studies were conducted on the structural, morphological, and optical properties, confirming the successful formation of ternary nanocomposites. The obtained results evidently demonstrate the successful loading of ZnS and Ag onto the surface of the CA.

Strategic rationalization for improved photocatalytic decomposition of toxic pollutants: Immobilizing BiTe nanorods and VO nanoparticles over MoS nanosheets.

Researchers have become increasingly interested in solar energy based on semiconductor photocatalysts to remove hazardous pollutants and clean the environment. In this work, an efficient MoS-BiTe-VO nanocomposite has been prepared through wet impregnation method. MoS-BiTe-VO photocatalyst was utilized to decompose the MB and Rh B dyes.

Functionalization of Fluorine on the Surface of SnO-Mg Nanocomposite as an Efficient Photocatalyst for Toxic Dye Degradation.

This work reports on the photocatalytic activity of tin oxide (SnO)-doped magnesium (Mg) and fluorine (F) nanoparticles for methyl orange and safranin dye degradation under sunlight irradiation. Nanocatalysis-induced dye degradation was examined using UV-visible spectroscopy and a pseudo-first-order kinetics model. The results indicate that the prepared nanoparticles exhibit superior photocatalytic activity, and the degradation of methyl orange (MO) dye is approximately 82%.
