Applications of polystyrene/graphite composites in water purification as a semiconductor visible-light photocatalyst for organic pollutant degradation

The aim of this study was to prepare a polymer/graphite composite thin film as a cheap, and nontoxic photocatalyst that could be activated by visible light. It was characterized using ultraviolet/visible spectrophotometry and X-ray diffraction. Scanning electron microscopy was used to examine the ph...
