Carbonate intercalated layered Zn, ZnNi and ZnCu hydroxides were synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method for the visible light driven photocatalytic methylene blue dye degradation. The crystalline phase, surface states, optical and morphological properties were studied by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) measurements. The XRD measurement demonstrated that all the synthesized materials were in a regular layered structure. Optical spectra of the samples were revealed that layered ZnNi hydroxide showed the visible light absorption property. The photocatalytic activities of the prepared layered materials examined by the degradation of methyl blue (MB) dye solution under visible light illumination. Among the prepared layered hydroxide, ZnNi hydroxide exhibited the 90% removal rate for MB under visible light illumination. The enhanced photocatalytic activity of ZnNi hydroxide is due to combined visible light absorption nature and hierarchical flower-like structure with a large number of active sites. Moreover, the ZnNi hydroxide has very good recyclability until remain active after the complete fourth degradation cycle.
