This review focuses on the usage of nano–sized catalysts in eco–remedial for polluted air and water. The metal nanomaterials, metal oxide-based nano-photocatalysts, and non-metallic nanomaterials have the proficiency for inactivating viruses and purifying air. These nano catalysts have more active sites at their surface in comparison with normal materials and hence more effective catalysts. In […]
Cuprous oxide nanocubes (Cu2O NCBs) were successfully functionalized with graphene quantum dots (GQDs) to form GQDs/Cu2O NCBs composites material with highly plasmonic property and photocatalytic activity. Herein, GQDs were synthesized by a hydrothermal method at 190°C for 8 h using natural sources of wheat flour and ascorbic acid as precursors and reducing agents, respectively. Cu2O […]
