Abstract
. At the same time, the capacitance retention is 92.9% after 5000 cycles which showed good cycle stability. The photocatalytic degradation efficiencies of rhodamine B (RhB), methyl orange (MO) and methylene blue (MB) dyes exceed 90% after 140 min, and the degradation results remained unchanged after five photocatalytic cycles. The photocatalytic degradation mechanism shows that ˙OH has a major effect. The results show that this research provides a fresh idea for the development of energy storage and dye photocatalytic degradation materials.
