Preparation,characterization and photocatalytic properties of BiOBr/ZnO composites

BiOBr/ZnO composite photocatalysts were prepared by a simple hydrothermal method. The as-prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), transmission electron microscopy(TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM), UV–Vis diffusion reflectance spectroscopy(DRS) and photoluminescence(PL) spectroscopy, respectively. The photocatalytic activities were evaluated by the degradation of methyl blue(MB) under the simulated sunlight irradiation. Among all the samples, the BiOBr/ZnO composite with a mole ratio of 3:1(Bi:Zn) exhibited the best photocatalytic activity. The improvement of photocatalytic activity was mainly attributed to the low recombination ratio of photo-induced electron-hole pairs. The possible photocatalytic mechanism was discussed on the basis of the band structures of BiOBr and ZnO.     

Visible-light Photochromism of Phosphomolybdic Acid/ZnO Composite

A novel photochromic hybrid ZnO was synthesized by doping with phosphomolybdic acid(PMoA). It could respond to visible light and fade in color when treated with hydrogen peroxide(H₂O₂). The microstructure and photochromic properties were investigated via X-ray diffraction(XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), transmission electron microscopy(TEM), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy(UV-Vis) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). The XRD patterns show that the prepared ZnO is pure and has a hexagonal wurtzite structure. The FTIR results demonstrate the existence of a strong interaction between PMoA and ZnO. Due to PMoA doping, the rough surface morphology of ZnO became smooth, as verified by the SEM images. The TEM images illustrate that pure ZnO exhibits a polycrystalline structure with irregular morphology. PMoA was wrapped on the surface of ZnO. After visible-light irradiation, the composite changed from slight yellow to blue and returned to the original color in the presence of H₂O₂. The composite had good photosensitivity and photochromic reversibility. The photochromic process was in accord with photoinduced electrons transfer mechanism.     

Investigation of structural and thermal characteristics of PVDF/ZnO nanocomposites

The structural and thermal behavior of PVDF/ZnO nanocomposites have been investigated by employing scanning electron microscopy (SEM),TEM, DSC, powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermally stimulated discharge current (TSDC), and transient current techniques. SEM/TEM observation indicated the homogeneous dispersion of functionalized ZnO nanoparticles throughout PVDF matrix. DSC shows that the crystallinity is influenced by the presence of ZnO nanoparticles in the PVDF matrix because the filler acts as efficient nucleating agent to facilitate PVDF crystallization. DSC results indicated the enhancement of the glass transition temperature (T _g), melting temperature (T _m) and crystallization temperature (T _c) of nanocomposites compared to pristine PVDF. XRD shows that the full-width at half maximum decreases with increasing ZnO content, which is attributed to the improvement in crystallinity. The incorporation of ZnO nanoparticles influences the modification of polarization process in PVDF as observed by means of TSDC and transient current study.     

Local Structure of ZnO Micro Flowers and Nanoparticles Obtained by Micro‐Segmented Flow Synthesis

The micro‐segmented flow technique was applied for continuous synthesis of ZnO micro‐ and nanoparticles with short residence times of 9.4 s and 21.4 s, respectively. The obtained particles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Small angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS) and photoluminescence spectroscopy were used to determine the size and optical properties of ZnO nanoparticles. In addition, extended X‐ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy was employed to investigate local structural properties. The EXAFS measurements reveal a larger degree of structural disorder in the nanoparticles than the microparticles. These structural changes should be taken into consideration while evaluating the size‐dependent visible emission of ZnO nanoparticles.     

Preparation and characterization of novel polyimide/functionalized ZnO bionanocomposite for gas separation and study of their antibacterial activity

In the present investigation novel Polyimide/functionalized ZnO (PI/ZnO) bionanocomposites containing amino acid (Methionine) and benzimidazole pendent groups with different amounts of modified ZnO nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) were successfully prepared through ultrasonic irradiation technique. Due to the high surface energy and tendency for agglomeration, the surface ZnO NPs was modified by a coupling agent as 3- methacryloxypropyl-trimethoxysilane (MPS) to form MPS-ZnO nanoparticles. The ultrasonic irradiation effectively changes the rheology and the glass transition temperature and the crystallinity of the composite polymer. PI/ZnO nanocomposites were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). TEM analysis showed that the modified ZnO nanoparticles were homogeneously dispersed in polymer matrix. The TGA results of PI/ZnO nanocomposites showed that the thermal stability is obviously improved the presence of MPS-ZnO NPs in comparison with the pure PI and that this increase is higher when the NP content increases. The permeabilities of pure H₂, CH₄, O₂, and N₂ gases through prepared membranes were determined at room temperature (25 °C) and 20 bar feed pressure. The membranes having 20% ZnO showed higher values of H₂ permeability, and H₂/CH₄ and H₂/N₂ ideal selectivities (the ratio of pair gas permeabilities) compared with other membranes. The antibacterial activity of bionanocomposite films was tested against gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis) and gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa). Further, it was observed that antibacterial activity of the resulting hybrid biofilms showed somewhat higher for gram-positive bacteria compared to gram-negative bacteria.
