Photocatalytic activity of PDPB nanofibers, ZnO nanoparticles and PDPB-ZnO light harvesting nanoheterojunction.

Photocatalytic degradation of MO in the presence of PDPB (red), ZnO (green) and PDPB-ZnO (blue) under (a) UV light (b) Visible light (1 sun) irradiation. (c) Effect of Cu2+, EDTA and TBA on the photocatalytic activity of PDPB-ZnO LHNH. The photodegradation reaction of MO (initial concentration C0 = 0.3 × 10−4 M) was carried out in a 10 mm optical path quartz cell reactor containing 3.5 mL of a model solution with a concentration of 1 g.L−1 of the PDPB-ZnO, PDPB nanofiber (0.2 g.L−1) and ZnO NPs (1 g.L−1).
