CdS loaded on coal based activated carbon nanofibers with enhanced photocatalytic property

The coal based activity carbon nanofibers (CBACFs) were prepared by electrospinning a mixture of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and acid treated coal. Cadmium sulfide (CdS) nanoparticles loaded on CBACFs were fabricated by solvothermal method. The CdS/CBACFs nanocomposites exhibited outstanding photocatalytic activity.75
