This research intends to enhance the photocatalytic efficiency and durability of substrates coated with TiO2-based nanocomposites under visible light illumination. More specifically, TiO2/SiO2/graphene oxide nanocomposites are successfully sono-synthesized and sono-fabricated onto a polymeric fabric through a facile one-step method. The morphologies, phase structures and optical properties of the samples are studied. The photocatalytic activity of the functionalized samples is assessed through a gentian violet stain removal test and then photodecomposition of methylene blue under visible light, and tested again after 10 washes to check on its durability. It is corroborated that TiO2/SiO2/graphene oxide nanocomposites have shown significantly better visible light self-cleaning performance than just using the pure TiO2 alone. In addition, even after 10 washes, the samples virtually maintain the functionality. Herein, sono-synthesis of TiO2/SiO2/graphene oxide represents a remarkable step forward in visible light-driven self-cleaning treatment for flexible materials and, hence, holds a great potential for commercialization.

LaFeO3/NiO modified g-C3N4 nanosheets (L-N/CNS) were synthesized by a two-step method. HRTEM results showed that an intimate contact between LaFeO3, NiO and N-CNS was successfully established. Ninety percent of phenol was degraded within 120[Formula: see text]min, and the hydrogen evolution rate of 171.2[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]mol[Formula: see text]h[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text] was obtained over the L-N/CNS heterojunctions under the visible-light irradiation. It was higher than that of g-C3N4 nanosheets, NiO modified g-C3N4 and LaFeO3/g-C3N4. The[Formula: see text][Formula: see text][Formula: see text]O[Formula: see text] radicals acted the crucial role in the photocatalytic degradation reaction. EIS, PL and time-resolved fluorescence spectra demonstrated that L-N/CNS possessed the highest charge separation efficiency. The intimate contact between LaFeO3, NiO and g-C3N4 nanosheets promoted the separation and transfer of photo-induced electron–hole pairs and consequently prolonged the exciton lifetime, and implied more photo-induced electrons could be probably involved in the photocatalytic reactions on the surface of photocatalysts. Thus, the visible-light driven photocatalytic performances of L-N/CNS were effective. This work provided a feasible method to design and construct heterostructures for the exploitation of solar energy.
