Abstract:Zinc oxide (ZnO) has been widely acknowledged as a highly effective photocatalyst for the degradation of organic pollutants. In this study, we presented silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) embedded ZnO foam photocatalyst (Ag−ZnO) on glass substrates by the chemical bath in‐situ co‐deposition method. Our findings demonstrat that at low Ag‐loading content, metallic Ag0 NPs are embedded within the ZnO foam, while at high Ag‐loading content, they accumulates increasingly from inside to the surface of the foam. With the i… Show more
