Abstract: Co9S8 nanoparticles were loaded on one-dimensional CdS nanorods through solvothermal method to form a one-dimensional heterojunction structure for photocatalytic hydrogen production. Combining the characterization of XRD, SEM, and UV-Vis DRS, the composition, microstructure, and optical properties of the material were studied.Then the photocatalytic properties were tested. The results showed that when the loading of Co9S8 was 10% of the mass of CdS, the composite had the best hydrogen production rate of 18.72 mmol·g-1·h-1, which was about 16 times that of CdS.In addition, the composite also showed good cycle stability, and the performance did not decrease significantly in the continuous 12-hour photocatalytic hydrogen production test. Finally, the charge transfer mechanism of the material was discussed. Based on the analysis of the characterization results of transient photocurrent, EIS and PL, it was concluded that the composite CdS-Co9S8 one-dimensional heterojunction structure can significantly improve the migration and separation efficiency of photogenerated electron-hole pairs, thereby it had excellent performance of photocatalytic hydrogen production.
