Visible light induced degradation of methyl orange using b-Ag0.333V2O5 nanorod catalysts by facile thermal decomposition method

الملخص EN

One dimensional nanorods of b-Ag0.333V2O5 have been synthesized by facile thermal decomposition method without using any additives.

The prepared sample was characterized by different physical and chemical techniques such as XRD, FE-SEM, TEM, DRS and XPS.

The photocatalytic activity of b-Ag0.333V2O5 catalyst was investigated by studying the degradation of methyl orange (MO) in aqueous medium under visible light exposure.

The result shows b-Ag0.333V2O5 exhibits outstanding photocatalytic activity under visible light illumination.
