Synthesis and application of novel α-Fe2O3/graphene for visible-light enhanced photocatalytic degradation of RhB

Hematite α-Fe2O3 nanoparticle synthesis via a facile and eco-friendly hydrothermal method has been hybridized by different loading of graphene obtained by the pyrolysis of biopolymers (alginate, chitosan and carrageenan). The resulting α-Fe2O3-Gr catalyst shows a high catalytic activity of ~98% towa...
