Abstract
The g-C3N4/CeVO4 composites were successfully synthesized by hybridizing CeVO4 nanofibers with g-C3N4 nanosheets. The photocatalytic activity of g-C3N4/CeVO4 composites was evaluated for the photodegradation of methylene blue under visible light irradiation. Among them, the 50Â wt% g-C3N4/CeVO4 composites presented the highest photocatalytic activity, about 2 and 3.2 times higher than those of CeVO4 and g-C3N4, respectively. The improved catalytic activity was owed to the hybridization, which facilitated the rapid separation of photoinduced carriers and enhanced the visible light harvesting. A possible photocatalytic mechanism was proposed.
