Abstrakt: In this study, nanocomposite films were prepared by using cerium oxide (CeO2), chitosan (CHS), and Montmorillonite (MMT) as a crosslinking agent. The CeO2/CHS/MMT nanocomposite was characterized by FTIR, DRS-UV-Vis dan SEM-EDX. The results of the XRD analysis verified that CeO2 characteristic peaks existed in the prepared nanocomposite. Based on XRD data pure crystal cerium oxide was present in CeO2/CHS/MMT nanocomposite. The results of the DRS-UV CeO2/CHS/MMT nanocomposite obtained absorption at 328 nm with a bandgap energy value of 1.54 eV. Based on the results of the characterization, the resulting nanocomposite has good potential in photocatalytic applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
