Addressed herein is the catalyst of Pd(0) nanoparticles supported on benzene ring doped graphitic carbon nitride (Pd@BD-g-C3N4) for MB degradation or Cr (VI) ions reduction under visible light irradiation. Pd@BD-g-C3N4 nanocatalyst has been synthesized using the facile wet impregnation-chemical reduction method to boost the catalytic efficiency of BD-g-C3N4. The MB degradation or Cr (VI) ions reduction proceeded efficiently in the presence of Pd@BD-g-C3N4. Compared with pure BD-g-C3N4 in both studies, the hybrid photocatalyst Pd@BD-g-C3N4-exhibited enhanced visible light photoactivity was higher than of pure BD-g-C3N4. In addition, in the reusability tests, it was observed that the Pd@BD-g-C3N4 photocatalyst has good stability and repeated cycle performance. The electronic and morphologic structure of support material and nanocatalyst were characterized by several techniques such as FT-IR, DR/UV-Vis, BET, SEM-EDX, HR-TEM, P-XRD, and XPS analyses.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBd-G-C3n4Cr (Vi) IonsMethylene bluePd NanoparticlesPhotocatalystArticle385WOS:0011872028000012-s2.0-8518850571310.1002/aoc.7442Q1N/A
