Abstract:A simple hydrothermal method was developed for the size-controlled synthesis of SnS2 nanoparticles, using common and inexpensive SnCl4·5H2O and thioacetamide as the reactants and 5 vol.% acetic acid aqueous solution as the solvent. The structure, composition and optical property of the obtained products were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Brumauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area analysis and UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectra, and their possible formation mechanism was proposed. Besides, their photocatalytic properties were tested by degrading methyl orange in distilled water (20 mg/l) under visible light (λ > 420 nm) irradiation. It was found that SnS2 nanoparticles synthesized under the appropriate hydrothermal conditions not only exhibited high visible light-driven photocatalytic activity, but also had good photocatalytic stability.
