Novel Micro and Nanostructure of a AgCuInS₂-Graphene-TiO₂ Ternary Composite for Photocatalytic CO₂ Reduction for Methanol Fuel.

ABSTRACT: Photocatalytic CO₂ reduction into hydrocarbon fuels over photocatalysts has hypothetical and reasonably developed into a trendy exploration topic. In this study, the progress of the quaternary nanocomposite containing a graphene-based catalyst was reported; this was fabricated using the hydrothermal technique. The analysis of physical characteristics of the nanocomposite confirmed the interaction between all parts. The quaternary nanocomposite containing the graphene-based catalyst was utilized for carbon dioxide reduction to methanol (CH₃OH) under light irradiation. Titanium dioxide (TiO₂) and the quaternary nanocomposite of AgCuInS₂ were monotonously spread on the graphene exterior. This nanomaterial showed superior activity compared with TiO
