Improved photocatalytic activity of indium doped cadmium sulfide dispersed on zirconia

Nanohybrid MoS2-PANI-CdS photocatalyst for hydrogen evolution from water

“…The inter-electron transfer between CdS and MoS 2 and the hydrogen activation property of MoS 2 are reported to be responsible for the increased activity. Several composites of CdS like CdS-graphene [6], CdS-ZnO [7,8], CdS-CdO [9,10], and CdS-ZrO 2 [11] show better photocatalytic activity than pure CdS. The increased activity has been attributed to the increased surface area and increased lifetime of the photogenerated charge carriers in these composite systems.…”

Photocatalytic performance of Pd decorated TiO2–CdO composite: Role of in situ formed CdS in the photocatalytic activity

“…S1, supporting information). Details of the irradiation chamber and photocatalytic reactor are given in our earlier publications [23]. After every 1 h, the gas mixture from the reactor was analyzed using a gas chromatograph (Chromatography and Instruments Company, GC 2011) equipped with a molecular sieve 5A column and thermal conductivity detector.…”

A stable, efficient and reusable CdS–SnO2 heterostructured photocatalyst for the mineralization of Acid Violet 7 dye

“…Pure CdS was prepared by the reaction of cadmium chloride with sodium sulfide in ethylene glycol medium [20]. Cadmium chloride (4 g) dissolved in water was mixed with EG (total volume = 50 cm 3 , water:EG = 1:1 by volume) and refluxed at 100 • C for 15 min.…”
