MARIANO CASAS-LUNA is an academic who published a paper in 2022 entitled Sustainable Synthesis of Cadmium Sulfide, with Applicability in Photocatalysis, Hydrogen Production,. MARIANO CASAS-LUNA published this work as part of a team: Shalabayev, Zhandos. Here is a description of this work: CdS nanoparticles were successfully synthesized using cadmium acetate and sodium sulfide as Cd and S precursors, respectively. The effect of using sodium thiosulfate as an additional sulfur precursor was also investigated (combined milling). The samples were characterized by XRD, Raman spectroscopy, XPS, UV-Vis spectroscopy, PL spectroscopy, DLS, and TEM. Photocatalytic activities of both CdS samples were compared. The photocatalytic activity of CdS, which is produced by combined milling, was superior to that of CdS, and was obtained by an acetate route in the degradation of Orange II under visible light irradiation. Better results for CdS prepared using a combined approach were also evidenced in photocatalytic experiments on hydrogen generation. The antibacterial potential of mechanochemically prepared CdS nanocrystals wa.
