Abstract：
:To address the limitations of titanium dioxide (TiO2) and expand the applicability of the photocatalytic activity of TiO2,WSe2 and silica, an eco-friendly, self-assembled method for combining a silica precursor with a WSe2-graphene-TiO2 composite with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as surface active agents is proposed. Firstly, for the main target, the photocatalytic degradation of organic dye solutions with different initial pH levels and catalyst dosages under visible light irradiation was surveyed. The as-synthesized sample exhibited highly efficient photocatalytic effects for the treatment of the SO dye solution in the optimal conditions of this study, which included a solution with a pH level of 11 and 0.05-gram dosage of the catalyst. Secondly, previous photocatalytic hydrogen production studies reported markedly better outcomes with SiO2/WSe2-graphene-TiO2 than with the binary WSe2-graphene and ternary WSe2-graphene-TiO2 composites under ambient conditions with and without 20% methanol sacrificing reagents. The SiO2/WSe2-graphene-TiO2 composite is promising to become a potential candidate for photocatalytic performance that performs excellently as well as offer an efficient heterosystem for hydrogen production.
