Abstract

In this study, a CoS/NiMoO4 composite catalyst with good TYPE-II heterojunction was prepared by hydrothermal method with NiMoO4 nanorods, with water as a medium to load small amount of amorphous CoS, by changing the loading amounts of amorphous CoS. X-ray diffraction, UV–Visible diffuse reflection and other characteristics indicate that doped amorphous CoS can significantly improve the photocatalytic performance of NiMoO4, and the charge separation and electron transfer efficiency of composite catalysts detected by photoelectric chemistry are also significantly improved compared with NiMoO4. The photocatalytic activity and stability of the composite catalyst were studied by hydrogen evolution experiment. The hydrogen production rate of the composite catalyst can reach 338 μmol, which is 3.23 times higher than pure NiMoO4. This simple hydrothermal synthesis of photocatalytic materials provides new ideas and methods for the design and development of new composite photocatalysts.
