Influence of Calcination Temperature on Ciprofloxacin Photodegradation by Vanadium Pentoxide / Graphitic Carbon Nitride Photocatalyst

“…According to the image of V 2 O 5 , it can be seen that irregular flake-shaped like structures [17] and meanwhile g-C 3 N 4 showed as interconnected particles in bulk [13]. These two images of g-C 3 N 4 and V 2 O 5 showed in Figure 3(c) of 500VC sample shows the successful intercalation of these two materials by calcination process [18], [19]. In addition to morphological analyses of SEM, X-ray Diffraction can prove the successful formation of 500VC.…”

Z-Scheme ZnV2O4/g-C3N4 Heterojunction Catalyst Produced by the One-Pot Method for the Degradation of Tetracycline under Visible Light

“…G-C 3 N 4 showed two distinct characteristic diffraction peaks, which was consistent with the bulk g-C 3 N 4 (JCPDS card no. 87-1526) . The weak diffraction peak at 13.2° corresponded to the stacking of in-plane structures and the regular arrangement of tri-s-triazine units, which could be directed to the (100) plane.…”

“…87-1526). 33 The weak diffraction peak at 13.2°corresponded to the stacking of inplane structures and the regular arrangement of tri-s-triazine units, which could be directed to the (100) plane. The strong one at 27.6°matched the interlayer stacking reflection of aromatic rings corresponding to the (002) plane.…”

Structural and Surface Properties of pH-Varied Fe2O3 Nanoparticles: Correlation with Antibacterial Properties

“…One such critical area is being investigated on contemporary applications of Fe 2 O 3 in different forms such as co-doped Fe 2 O 3 , nanocomposites of α-Fe 2 O 3 -GO, rGO/g-C 3 N 4 /Fe 2 O 3 -heterojunctions, g-C 3 N 4 /α-Fe 2 O 3 /V 2 O 5 , etc. to investigate ammonia sensing, photocatalytic degradation, H 2 -evolution reaction, photodegradation performance of mixed pollutants and catalytic oxidation of toluene. − Hematite is nontoxic, can be quickly produced, and has good corrosion resistance and antibacterial properties . Among numerous solution/vapor-based techniques, precipitation/hydrothermal synthesis can generate nanoparticles of different shapes and morphology by altering the temperature, pressure, ambient chemical conditions, precursors, and pH of the solution .…”
