Diethyl dithiocarbamate [Cd (S2CN Et2)2] complex is used to deposit the cadmium sulphide thin film at much lower temperature by Aerosol Assisted Chemical Vapour deposition (AACVD) and same precursor is used to synthesize the nanocrystals in Oleylamine at elevated temperature. Thermogravimetric analysis shows that precursor [Cd (S2CN Et2)2] decomposes in the single stage, losing 62% of total weight. Deposition of thin films at 300°C and 400°C showed the growth of CdS clusters which were made of granular crystallites. These results are confirmed by SEM analysis. Thermolysis of the precursor in oleylamine at 240°C gave the nanoparticles most of them are monodispersed spherical shape, few having mono and dipod structures. TEM images confirm the structures. XRD results show the thin films and nanoparticles have hexagonal phase of CdS.

Carbon-titanium oxide nanocomposite (denoted as @C-TiO2) was successfully synthesized via hydrothermal method at 150°C for 24 h. The C-TiO2 nanocomposite was furtherly modified by adding an Ag metal dopant (denoted as Ag@C-TiO2) to improve and applied to the photocatalytic degradation of Sasirangan textile wastewater. The composite photocatalysts were characterized by XRD and UV–Vis DRS spectroscopies. XRD patterns showed that TiO2 in @C-TiO2 mainly consisted of a brookite phase, as indicated by a series sharp diffraction peak at 2θ = 27.2° (111), 31.5° (121) and 55.9° (241). The calculated band gap energy (Eg) derived from UV-Vis DRS spectra for TiO2, @C-TiO2, and Ag@C-TiO2 were 2.95 eV, 2.54 eV, and 2.74 eV, respectively. Ag@C-TiO2 photocatalyst was found to be active for the photocatalytic degradation of Sasirangan textile wastewater, as indicated by the change of wastewater color from dark to clear. The quantitative photocatalytic activity of Ag@C-TiO2 was evaluated in the degradation of methylene blue, whereas the conversion of methylene blue was 41.3%. The addition of Ag to @C-TiO2 is believed to play an essential role in the enhancement of photocatalytic activity.

In order to obtain a multifunctional nanocomposite material-for electrochemical sensors and photocatalytic applications, structures based on Bi, Fe and TiO2 were grown inside carbon xerogel supports (BiFeCX and BiFeCX-TiO2). First, a wet polymer containing Bi and Fe salts was obtained by following a modified resorcinol-formaldehyde based sol–gel route, followed by drying in ambient conditions, and pyrolysis under inert atmosphere. Then, through TiCl4 hydrolysis, TiO2 nanoparticles were deposited on the BiFeCX xerogel leading to BiFeCX-TiO2. The morphological and structural characterization of the investigated nanocomposites consisted in X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy and N2 adsorption measurements, revealing porous carbon structures with embedded nanoparticles and the particularities driven by the pyrolysis and TiCl4 treatment. The new modified electrodes based on BiFeCX or BiFeCX-TiO2 nanocomposite materials, kept in a chitosan matrix (Chi) and deposited on a glassy carbon (GC) electrode surface (GC/Chi-BiFeCX or GC/Chi-BiFeCX-TiO2), were obtained and investigated for Pb(II) voltammetric detection and H2O2 amperometric detection. Moreover, the BiFeCX-TiO2 nanocomposite was tested for the photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange. The great potential of BiFeCX nanocomposite material for developing electrochemical sensors, or BiFeCX-TiO2 for sensors application and photocatalytic application was demonstrated.
