LaSnO/g-CN nanocomposites: Rapid and green sonochemical fabrication and photo-degradation performance for removal of dye contaminations.

The deficiency of drinking water sources has become a serious crisis for the future of the world that the photocatalytic process is one of the most favorable methods for removal of artificial dyes and poisonous organic impurities. In the present study, rapid ultrasonic treatment was performed to obtain LaSnO/Graphitic carbon nitrides (LSO/CN) nanocomposites with advanced photo-catalytic performance. Broccoli extract was utilized as a natural surfactant with active surface groups to control nucleation and growth of formed crystals with the creation of spatial barriers around the cations, and finally prevent nano-product agglomeration.
