Abstract

Here, we present a facile synthesis of the boron nitride nanosheets decorated titanium dioxide nanorods (TiO2/BNNS NRs) on glass substrates by hydrothermal method. The photocatalytic performance of TiO2/BNNS NRs is investigated by degrading methylene blue (MB) under UV irradiation (254 nm) and recorded by Raman spectroscopy. The obtained results indicated the photocatalytic performance of TiO2/BNNS NRs was significantly improved than that of TiO2 NRs. The rate of degradation (k) of MB was found to be 0.085 min−1 for TiO2/BNNS NRs and 0.052 min−1 for TiO2 NRs. Besides, TiO2/BNNS NRs hybrid structure exhibits high cycling stability with about 90% after 5 consecutive cycles.
