Abstract:
The C60/CdS//PMMAnanocomposites were synthesized via the casting method. Prepared samples were analyzed by XRD, SEM, TEM, and FTIR analysis.UV–visible spectroscopy was used to evaluate optical properties of CdS//PMMA&C60/CdS//PMMAnanocomposite. The Eg decreased from 2.65 eV to 2 eVwith the increment CdS content. TheC60 nanoparticles have a significant influence, The absorption of C60 CdS/PMMAnanocomposite is enhanced compared to CdS/PMMAFullerene is an effective strategy for improving CdS photocatalytic performance. This enhancement is due to the electronic transition of π to π* for C60 and n to π* between the n orbit of the CdS and C60. Degradation efficiency is 17% for CdS/PMMA, and 33% for C60/CdS/PMMAnanocomposite. Thus C60/CdS/PMMAcan be used for optoelectronic devices, solar cell applications and photocatalytic activity.
