Abstract

Inorganic composites SiO2–Cd2SiO4@CdS were synthesized. The structure and morphology of the synthesized powders were studied. The composite materials obtained are more resistant to photocorrosion under both visible and UV radiation, compared to CdS particles deposited on SiO2. The high photocatalytic activity of the synthesized SiO2–Cd2SiO4@CdS composites was demonstrated by the example of photodegradation of Nile Blue dye in water under irradiation with visible light (λ > 410 nm).
