银促进的TiO2光催化降解甲基橙

 采用溶胶-凝胶和水热协同法制备了不同Ag含量的负载型Ag-TiO2样品,这些样品具有较大的比表面积和较小的粒径. 适量负载金属银后的TiO2在紫外及可见光下的光催化活性均得到提高. 银在TiO2上的最佳负载量为0.15%, 过高的负载量反而会降低TiO2光催化降解甲基橙的活性. 由于反应机理的不同,银负载对TiO2可见光下催化活性的提高要明显高于对其紫外光下催化活性的提高. 在可见光照射下,从激发态染料注入到TiO2导带的电子迅速转移到了Ag原子簇, Ag原子簇通过促进电荷分离抑制了电子和染料正离子自由基的复合,从而促进了光催化过程. 研究结果表明,有效地促进电荷分离以及激发态电子和氧气分子的反应是提高染料敏化光催化活性的关键.

新型可见光响应的 InVO4-Cu2O-TiO2三元纳米异质结：制备及其光催化性能

由于日益严重的环境和能源危机,可见光催化剂的开发已成为当今最具挑战和紧迫的任务之一.将 TiO2和其它窄禁带半导体复合,已被证明是一种有效的可提高其可见光光催化性能的策略. Cu2O是一种禁带宽度为2.0 eV的 p型窄禁带半导体, InVO4则是一种禁带宽度为2.0 eV的 n型半导体,因它们可用于可见光光解水产氢和有机污染物的可见光降解而在过去的数年中引起了人们广泛的关注.但是纯的 Cu2O和 InVO4由于光生电子空穴对在其内部快速地复合,光催化活性通常都比较低.基于能带工程的策略本文设计了一种新型的可见光响应的 InVO4-Cu2O-TiO2三元纳米异质结,并通过普通的湿化学法进行制备：先通过水热法制备 InVO4,再通过溶胶-凝胶法制备 InVO4-TiO2二元复合物,最后通过沉淀和还原过程制备得到 InVO4-Cu2O-TiO2三元纳米异质结.
　　在10%InVO4-40%Cu2O-50%TiO2三元纳米异质结的 X-射线衍射谱中没有观察到明显的杂质峰;通过透射电子显微技术和高分辨透射电子显微技术观察到了它们之间异质结的形成,纳米颗粒的尺寸范围在5?20 nm;经紫外可见漫反射光谱估算得到10%InVO4-40%Cu2O-50%TiO2的禁带宽度为2.78 eV,在可见光区域具有较强的吸收.以普通的9 W节能灯作为可见光光源光照甲基橙5 h后,纯的 InVO4, TiO2和 Cu2O几乎没有光催化活性;10%InVO4-90%TiO2的光催化活性也很低,甲基橙降解率为8%;70%Cu2O-30%TiO2对甲基橙降解率达84%,但初始活性较低;10%InVO4-40%Cu2O-50%TiO2对甲基橙降解率接近90%,并且循环使用6次后,其光催化活性的保持率还维持在90%以上,而50%Cu2O-50%TiO2光催化活性的保持率只有74%.
　　经对使用过的10%InVO4-40%Cu2O-50%TiO2进行 X射线光电子能谱表征发现,存在一弱小的 Cu(II)震动卫星峰,表明在 InVO4-Cu2O-TiO2的光催化过程中 Cu2O的光蚀并不严重.从能带工程的角度分析, InVO4-Cu2O-TiO2三元纳米异质结具有优异的可见光催化性能的主要原因为： InVO4的导带电极电位约为?0.5 eV(vs. SHE,下同),价带电位约为+1.5 eV, Cu2O的分别约为?1.6和+0.4 eV,与 TiO2(导带和价带电极电位分别约为?0.23和+2.97 eV)相比,它们的导带位置更负,将它们组装成三元复合结构,可见光激发的导带电子就可能从 InVO4和 Cu2O的导带迁移到 TiO2的导带上去.同时, n型的 TiO2和 InVO4都与 p型的 Cu2O形成 p-n异质结, n型的 TiO2和 InVO4之间形成 n-n异质结,由于 p-n异质结中内电场的存在以及不同能级相互耦合,可进一步促进可见光激发的导带电子从 InVO4和 Cu2O的导带迁移到 TiO2的导带上去,以及可见光激发的价带空穴从 InVO4的价带迁移到 Cu2O的价带上去,从而实现光生载流子空间上的有效分离.本文有望为新型可见光响应的半导体复合催化剂的设计和制备提供新的思路.

TiO2晶型与光催化活性关系的研究

随着工业的发展,人类本来很有限的水资源却受到日益严重的污染,清除水体中的有毒有害化学物质已成为环保领域中的一项重要工作,传统的水污染治理方法存在着能耗大、二次污染及降解不完全等缺点,而光催化降解技术可为这些问题提供较好的解决手段。光催化剂多为半导体氧化物,它们在一定波长光的照射下可将价带电子激发到带产生光生电子－空穴对,该光生电子－空穴对具有较强的氧化还原能力,可氧化水体中大部分有机污染物,TiO2以其良好的禁带宽度、较高的催化活性、抗光腐蚀及无毒、稳定性好等优点,已成为光催化剂研究的热点,本文选择具有典型偶氮染料结构的甲基橙水溶液为研究体系,对TiO2晶型与光催化活性之间的关系进行研究,得到一些有益的结果。

Photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange over metalloporphyrins supported on TiO2 Degussa P25

The photocatalytic activity of meso-tetraphenylporphyrins with different metal centers (Fe, Co, Mn and Cu) adsorbed on TiO(2) (Degussa P25) surface has been investigated by carrying out the photodegradation of methyl orange (MO) under visible and ultraviolet light irradiation. The photocatalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), diffuse reflectance UV (DRS-UV-vis) and infrared spectra. Copper porphyrin-sensitized TiO(2) photocatalyst (CuP-TiO(2)) showed excellent activity for the photodegradation of MO whether under visible or ultraviolet light irradiation. Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) charges analysis showed that methyl orange ion is adsorbed easier by CuP-TiO(2) catalyst due to the increase of induced interactions.     

Extending photocatalytic activity of TiO2 nanoparticles to visible region of illumination by doping of cerium

Cerium-doped Titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) nanoparticles are prepared by sol-gel method. Doping shifts the UV absorption edge of TiO(2) to the visible region, making it efficient for visible light photocatalysis. Incorporation of cerium decreases the effective band gap of TiO(2) and increases the Urbach energy levels. At the dopant concentrations of 0.015 and 0.025 mol the luminescence intensity increases compared to undoped TiO(2); however, the luminescence is quenched at 0.035 mol. Quenching of luminescence indicates efficient separation of charge carriers. Undoped TiO(2) is showing poor performance in the photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange under visible light. However, on cerium doping its photoactivity is increased, and is drastically enhanced at 0.035 mol of cerium. Further increase in Ce(3+) doping level to 0.045 mol results in the reduction of the photodegradation of the dye. On UV irradiation, entire samples show good photocatalytic activity up to 30 min, but their efficiency decreases when irradiation time is increased to 45 min. Irradiation for longer time results in negative charging of the TiO(2) surface with migrating electrons. The negatively charged surface repels the OH(-) ion and O(2) molecule from adsorbing on its surface thus decreasing the availability of hydroxyl and superoxide radical for dye degradation.     

Photodegradation of dye pollutants on TiO_2 pillared bentonites under UV light irradiation

TOC and COD are measured during the degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol under UV light irradiation using P25 and TiO2 pillared bentonite samples dried under different conditions. The clay-based catalysts can be readily separated by filtration or sedimentation.

Wavelength-sensitive photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange in aqueous suspension over iron(III)-doped TiO2 nanopowders under UV and visible light irradiation

Well-crystallized iron(III)-doped TiO2 nanopowders with controlled Fe3+ doping concentration and uniform dopant distribution, have been synthesized with plasma oxidative pyrolysis. The photocatalytic reactivity of the synthesized TiO2 nanopowders with a mean particle size of 50-70 nm was quantified in terms of the degradation rates of methyl orange (MO) in aqueous TiO2 suspension under UV (mainly 365 and 316 nm) and visible light irradiation (mainly 405 and 436 nm). The photodecomposition of MO over TiO2 nanopowders followed a distinct two-stage pseudo first order kinetics. Interestingly, the photocatalytic reactivity depends not only on the iron doping concentration but also on the wavelength of the irradiating light. Under UV irradiation, nominally undoped TiO2 had much higher reactivity than Fe3+ -doped TiO2, suggesting that Fe3+ doping (> 0.05 at. %) in TiO2 with a mean particle size of approximately 60 nm was detrimental to the photocatalytic decomposition of methyl orange. Whereas, under visible light irradiation, the Fe3+ -doped TiO2 with an intermediate iron doping concentration of approximately 1 at. % had the highest photocatalytic reactivity due to the narrowing of band gap so that it could effectively absorb the light with longer wavelength. A strategy for improving the photocatalytic reactivity of Fe3+ -doped TiO2 used in the visible light region is also proposed.

Photocatalytic property of surface-modified TiO<Subscript>2</Subscript> nanobelts under visible light irradiation

A novel plasmonic photocatalyst, i.e., acid-etched TiO₂ nanobelts attached with Ag/AgI nanoparticles (NPs) was prepared by deposition–precipitation-photoreduction method. Such surface-modified nanobelts had larger area than the normal one. Ag NPs were formed from AgI by photo-reduction under Xenon lamp irradiation. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy analysis, UV–Vis diffuse reflectance spectra and fluorescence spectra were used to characterize the structure and optical properties of the sample. The obtained sample exhibited strong photodegradation of methyl orange (MO) under visible light irradiation, which were attributed to both the surface plasmon resonance of Ag NPs and the visible light actived AgI. The photodegradation was accomplished by the transfer of photoexcited electrons from the Ag NPs to the acid-etched TiO₂ nanobelts. After four cycles of photodegradation the photocatalyst was still stable. This novel photocatalyst had a high potential application in wastewater-treatment and biomedical engineering.
