Abstract

The nanocomposites of g-C3N4 supported by Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4/g-C3N4) have been fabricated through a simple hydrothermal route in a water–ethanol system. The nanocomposites were characterized by X-ray diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared, and thermogravimetric analysis, respectively. The results showed that g-C3N4 nanosheets were decorated randomly by Fe3O4 nanoparticles with average diameters of 7 nm. The photocatalytic activities were evaluated in terms of the efficiencies of photodecomposition of Rhodamine B in aqueous solution under visible light illumination. The as-synthesized Fe3O4/g-C3N4 nanocomposites showed unprecedented photodecomposition efficiency compared with pure g-C3N4 under visible-light. The Fe3O4/g-C3N4 nanocomposites with improved photocatalytic activities would have a great potential in removing organic dyes from polluted water.
