The perovskite CaSnO3/g-C3N4 heterostructure nanocomposite was successfully prepared via facile solid-state route. The properties of morphology, structural, optical, functional, elemental, surface, electrochemical and photocatalytic performances were investigated. The synthesised CaSnO3 (CS) nanoparticles were grafted on the g-C3N4 nanosheets and their photocatalytic performance were determined. The introduction of g-C3N4 possesses solid-solid intimately contacted interfaces with CS that provides more transport paths and effectively improve the separation of photogenerated electrons and holes (e -/h+). Thus, the formation of CaSnO3/g-C3N4 (CGN) heterostructures exhibits with tunable optical bandgap and suppresses the charge recombination process that leads to improve the photocatalytic efficiency. Compared with bare CS the CGN photocatalyst achieves 95% of degradation efficiency over methylene blue (MB) dye in 120 min of UV-visible light irradiation. The possible photocatalytic degradation mechanism was discussed. Furthermore, the CGN photocatalyst has been utilized for 4 repeated runs of experiments which shows good stability and reusability after the degradation experiments.
