SnO2/ZnS nanocomposites were prepared by a hydrazine-assisted hydrothermal method. SnO2/ZnS nanocomposites catalyze the photodegradation of rhodamine B efficiently. A type-II heterojunction structure is formed between SnO2 and ZnS. The heterojunction structure leads to an efficient separation of e− and h+. The decoration of SnO2 on the ZnS improves the photostability of nanocomposites.
