Carbon nitride nanosheets magnetically decorated with Fe3O4 nanoparticles by homogeneous precipitation : adsorption-photocatalytic performance and acute toxicity assessment

In the present study, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) was decorated with Fe3O4 nanoparticles by using an alternative, simple and environmentally friendly method of homogeneous precipitation with urea. The magnetic nanocomposite was characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning...
