| dc.description | In this work, CeO2-TiO2 heterostructures were submitted to the microwave-assisted hydrothermal (MAH) method at 140 °C for 30 min, and varying the CeO2 and TiO2 percentages like 10, 30 and 50 mol%. The heterostructures were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller methodology (BET), and UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-Vis). The photocatalytic were estimated varying the concentration of methylene blue dye (MB). The diffractograms indicate the formation of TiO2 anatase and CeO2 phases, without the formation of secondary phases. TEM images indicate the formation of nanocubes and nanospheres for CeO2 and TiO2, respectively. BET analysis indicates that CeO2 has the largest surface area (62.80 m2.g-1), and TiO2-10%CeO2 heterostructure has a low surface area (26.13 m2.g-1). The addition of TiO2 to CeO2 increases photocatalytic activity from 32 to 80 % for CeO2 and CeO2-50%TiO2, respectively. In contrast, the addition of CeO2 significantly decreases
the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 from 98.9 to 50 % for TiO2 and TiO2-50%CeO2, respectively. Reuse tests showed that the TiO2-xCeO2 samples maintaining the photocatalytic response in subsequent cycles while the CeO2-xTiO2 samples have an increase in the response | |
