(a) Degradation curves. (b) Degradation kinetics of ZnO-Ag NCs, ZnO NPs, ZnO Bulk and TiO2-P25 under sunlight irradiation (catalyst amount = 60 mg, phenol initial concentration = 20 mg/L). (c) The impact of initial amount of phenol on photocatalytic activity. (d) The impact of photocatalyst dose on the elimination efficacy of phenol. (e) Cycling times of the photodegrading phenol applying ZnO-Ag NCs catalyst. (f) XRD patterns of ZnO-Ag NCs after and before 4 repetition.
