电纺法构筑高光催化活性的Z型TiO2/g-C3N4/RGO三元异质结

太阳能光催化技术广泛应用于处理环境污水中.Z型光催化剂体系具有较强的氧化还原能力,降低半导体的带隙,且使导带更负,价带更正,有效拓宽光生电子-空穴空间距离,抑制其复合,大大提高了光催化剂的催化性能,因此,构筑直接的Z型光催化体系已成为光催化领域的研究热点之一.TiO_2具有较好的光催化性能和良好的化学稳定性,但其禁带较宽,只能被太阳光中约占4%的紫外光激发,对太阳光中约占50%的可见光不响应,且光生电子-空穴易复合.g-C_3N_4是非金属光催化剂,具有较好的光催化活性,可见光吸收非常强,但比表面积较小,光生电子-空穴易复合.还原氧化石墨烯(RGO)具有大的比表面积和优异的传输载流子能力,可显著提高光催化剂的比表面积,同时降低电子空穴复合效率,从而在一定程度上改善光催化剂性能.大量研究证实, TiO_2/g-C_3N_4/RGO三元异质结的光催化性能明显优于单组份TiO_2, g-C_3N_4和二元TiO_2/g-C_3N_4光催化剂,但现有制备工艺复杂且耗时,因此,简易地构筑具有高光催化性能的Z型TiO_2/g-C_3N_4/RGO三元异质结仍具有挑战性.本文采用简易的直接电纺法构筑了高光催化活性的Z型TiO_2/g-C_3N_4/RGO三元异质结光催化剂,通过调节尿素的用量成功制备了一系列不同形貌的TiO_2/g-C_3N_4/RGO三元异质结.并采用X-射线衍射、红外光谱、拉曼光谱、X射线光电子能谱、扫描电子显微镜、透射电子显微镜、紫外-可见漫反射吸收光谱、氮气吸附-脱附测试、光电化学测试和荧光光谱等技术对所制备样品的晶型、组成、形貌、光捕获能力、载流子分离能力、比表面积、光电流、阻抗、光降解性能以及羟基自由基的生成进行系统性测试.以罗丹明B为目标探针分子,考察了模拟太阳光下所制备的光催化剂的光催化活性,结果表明,尿素添加量为0.6g时,电纺构筑的TiO_2/g-C_3N_4/RGO三元异质结在60min具有99.1%的光催化降解效率,显著优于纯TiO_2, g-C_3N_4,二元TiO_2/g-C_3N_4以及制备的其它TiO_2/g-C_3N_4/RGO三元异质结光催化剂.基于光电化学测试、活性物种淬灭实验和荧光光谱分析测试羟基自由基等分析结果,提出了一个合理的Z型增强光催化活性机理.

g-C3N4/CoTiO3梯型异质结及其增强的可见光催化分解纯水制氢性能(英文)

光催化分解纯水制氢在利用太阳能制备清洁能源方面极具潜力,寻找高效的光催化剂是实现其实际应用的关键因素.高效的光催化剂需同时具备宽光谱吸收、低载流子复合率以及足够强的氧化还原能力等条件.然而,具有强氧化还原能力的光催化剂通常具有较高的导带和较低的价带位置,导致其带隙较宽,光吸收范围缩窄,因此,单一的光催化剂难以同时满足宽光谱吸收和强氧化还原能力也难以实现高效的光催化纯水分解制氢.相比之下,梯型异质结可以将两种带隙适宜、能带结构匹配的光催化剂集成在一起,在保持原本光催化剂的强氧化还原能力的同时也能充分地利用太阳光,因此梯型异质结的研究受到广泛关注.目前报道的梯型异质结光催化剂的可见光催化分解纯水制氢效率仍然很低,并且大部分的材料都是在全光谱条件下进行测试的,因此有必要开发在可见光下具有高活性的梯型异质结复合光催化剂.本文报道了一种具有可见光响应的新型g-C₃N₄/CoTiO₃复合梯型异质结光催化剂,在不添加牺牲剂的情况下,成功实现了可见光催化分解纯水制氢气.光催化测试结果表明,在可见光(λ>400 nm)照射下,当Co...

二维/二维S-型Bi3NbO7/g-C3N4异质结光催化剂驱动选择性CO2还原制CH4

人工光合作用可直接将二氧化碳转化为一系列碳氢化合物,实现大气中的碳循环,被视为一种既能解决能源短缺又能减少温室气体,进而改善人类生存环境的新型绿色技术.光催化二氧化碳还原体系需要合适的耦合氧化还原反应,以及对外界光源的有效利用以产生足够电子参与反应,因此构建高催化活性和高选择性的催化体系仍然面临着巨大挑战.此外,二维纳米结构(2D)由于具有比表面积大、离子的迁移路径短以及独特的平层电子转移轨道等特性,被证实有利于光催化还原CO₂过程.其中,Bi₃NbO₇特殊的片层结构和合适的能带位置,使其在光催化还原CO₂反应中表现出良好的催化性能.然而,Bi₃NbO₇的光生载流子易复合及反应中光腐蚀严重等缺陷导致其光利用率较低,限制了其实际应用.因此,构建S-型异质结是提高复合材料光催化活性的一种有前途的策略.S-型异质结不仅能有效地分离光生电子和空穴,而且这一电子转移过程赋予了复合物最大的氧化还原能力.同时,S-型光催化体系不仅拥有同样的强氧化和强还原能力,还可显著抑制副反应的发生及副产物的产生,有利于CO₂还原反应的高选择性进行.本文利用简易的溶剂热法制备了一系列S-型Bi₃NbO₇/g-C₃N₄(BNO/UCN)异质结光催化剂,与其纯组分催化剂相比,表现出优异的光催化还原CO₂活性,g-C₃N₄含量为80wt%的BNO/UCN-3光催化剂催化CO₂生成CH₄产率为37.59μmol·g^-1h^-1,是g-C₃N₄的15倍,CH₄选择性为90%;且循环反应10次后仍保持较高的活性及CH4选择性.光催化活性及选择性的显著增强是由于二维分布的纳米结构和S-型电荷转移路径.在可见光照射下,界面内建电场、带边缘弯曲和库仑相互作用协同促进了复合物相对无用的电子和空穴的复合.因此,剩余的电子和空穴具有较高的还原性和氧化性,使复合材料具有较高的氧化还原能力.自由基捕获实验、电子顺磁共振实验和原位X射线光电子能谱实验结果表明,光催化剂中的电子迁移遵循S-型异质结机理.综上,本文不仅为新型S-型异质结CO₂还原光催化剂的设计和制备提供了新方法,而且为未来解决能源短缺及实现碳中和目标提供一定的实验及理论依据.

1,2-亚苯基二硫桥[FeFe]-氢化酶模拟物选择性光催化还原CO2至CO

利用基于非贵金属的分子催化剂通过光驱动催化CO2还原生成CO是将太阳能储存为化学能和缓解CO2温室效应的有效途径之一,具有重要的科学意义和潜在的应用前景.已报道的非贵金属分子催化剂,大多数对于光驱动CO2还原表现出缓慢的催化反应速率和/或对CO产物的低选择性,反应常常伴随着质子还原产氢反应,只有很少几种非贵金属分子催化剂对光催化CO2还原生成CO表现出高催化反应速率(>100 h?1)和高选择性.研究表明,双核过渡金属配合物由于分子中邻近的两个金属中心的协同催化作用,对于CO2还原生成CO的催化活性明显高于相应的单核配合物.因此,具有两个邻近的金属离子的非贵金属双核配合物有望作为CO2选择性还原的高效分子催化剂.我们最近的研究发现,具有刚性、共轭亚苯基二硫桥结构的[FeFe]-氢化酶模拟物[(μ-bdt)Fe2(CO)6](1,bdt=苯-1,2-二巯基)能够高活性、高选择性地光化学还原CO2至CO,而与其类似的模拟物[(μ-edt)Fe2(CO)6](2,edt=乙烷-1,2-巯基)则不具有光催化还原CO2活性,表明铁铁氢化酶模拟物中硫-硫桥的结构是影响模拟物的催化性能的重要结构因素之一.可见光照射1/[Ru(bpy)3]2+/BIH(BIH=1,3-二甲基-2-苯基-2,3-二氢-1H-苯并[d]-咪唑)体系4.5 h,1催化生成CO的循环数(TON)为710,在初始1 h的转化率(TOF)为7.12 min^-1,CO的选择性达到97%,内量子效率为2.8%.有趣的是,向体系中加入TEOA时可以调节1的催化选择性,光化学反应能够在CO2还原产生CO和质子还原产生H2之间进行切换.此外,采用稳态荧光和瞬态吸收光谱研究了光催化体系中的电子转移,提出可能的光催化反应机理.该研究结果揭示了刚性硫-硫桥结构的氢化酶模拟物对光化学CO2还原至CO的特殊催化活性,拓展了铁铁氢化酶模拟物的催化多功能性.     

Covalent Triazine Frameworks(CTFs) for Photocatalytic Applications

Covalent triazine frameworks(CTFs) as a new type of porous organic polymers(POPs) with nitrogen-rich content, high chemical stability, visible light sensitive, metal-free and fully conjugated structure, have gained considerable attention in the last ten years owing to their great potential in extensive applications, especially for photocatalysis systems. In this review, we propose to provide current progress in the design and synthesis of CTFs, along with an emphasis on their photocatalytic applications. Firstly, a brief background including the development of photocatalytic areas is provided. Then, synthetic strategies of CTFs are described and compared. Furthermore, the evolution of CTF materials in photocatalysis fields and strategies for enhancing photocatalytic performance is presented. Finally, some perspectives and challenges on synthesizing high crystalline CTFs and designing excellent catalytic performance of CTF materials are discussed, inspiring the development of CTF materials in photocatalytic applications.     

Covalent Triazine Frameworks via a Low‐Temperature Polycondensation Approach

Covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) are normally synthesized by ionothermal methods. The harsh synthetic conditions and associated limited structural diversity do not benefit for further development and practical large‐scale synthesis of CTFs. Herein we report a new strategy to construct CTFs (CTF‐HUSTs) via a polycondensation approach, which allows the synthesis of CTFs under mild conditions from a wide array of building blocks. Interestingly, these CTFs display a layered structure. The CTFs synthesized were also readily scaled up to gram quantities. The CTFs are potential candidates for separations, photocatalysis and for energy storage applications. In particular, CTF‐HUSTs are found to be promising photocatalysts for sacrificial photocatalytic hydrogen evolution with a maximum rate of 2647 μmol h⁻¹ g⁻¹ under visible light. We also applied a pyrolyzed form of CTF‐HUST‐4 as an anode material in a sodium‐ion battery achieving an excellent discharge capacity of 467 mAh g⁻¹.

A Fully Conjugated Covalent Organic Framework with Oxidative and Reductive Sites for Photocatalytic Carbon Dioxide Reduction with Water

Constructing a powerful photocatalytic system that can achieve the carbon dioxide (CO₂) reduction half-reaction and the water (H₂O) oxidation half-reaction simultaneously is a very challenging but meaningful task. Herein, a porous material with a crystalline topological network, named viCOF-bpy-Re, was rationally synthesized by incorporating rhenium complexes as reductive sites and triazine ring structures as oxidative sites via robust −C=C− bond linkages. The charge-separation ability of viCOF-bpy-Re is promoted by low polarized π-bridges between rhenium complexes and triazine ring units, and the efficient charge-separation enables the photogenerated electron–hole pairs, followed by an intramolecular charge-transfer process, to form photogenerated electrons involved in CO₂ reduction and photogenerated holes that participate in H₂O oxidation simultaneously. The viCOF-bpy-Re shows the highest catalytic photocatalytic carbon monoxide (CO) production rate (190.6 μmol g⁻¹ h⁻¹ with about 100 % selectivity) and oxygen (O₂) evolution (90.2 μmol g⁻¹ h⁻¹) among all the porous catalysts in CO₂ reduction with H₂O as sacrificial agents. Therefore, a powerful photocatalytic system was successfully achieved, and this catalytic system exhibited excellent stability in the catalysis process for 50 hours. The structure–function relationship was confirmed by femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations.     

A unique Janus PdZn-Co catalyst for enhanced photocatalytic syngas production from CO2 and H2O

The development of excellent catalyst to achieve photocatalytic syngas production from CO₂ and H₂O is a prospective and sustainable strategy to alleviate environment and energy crisis. In this study, a unique Janus PdZn-Co catalyst is prepared by annealed the Pd/IRMOF-3(Co, Zn) precursor. Due to the strong interaction, the electron transfers from PdZn terminal to Co terminal in the Janus structure. The electron-received Co terminal facilitates Co sites coordinate with the electrophilic C atom of CO₂ and the electron-donated PdZn center is easier to coordinate with nucleophilic O atoms of H₂O or CO bonds. The charge redistribution enhances the absorption of CO₂ and H₂O, which promotes H₂ evolution and CO production. In addition, the carbon shell effectively suppresses the metal core agglomeration and facilitates the electron transmission from photosensitizer to metallic active sites. Meanwhile, the ratio of CO/H₂ can be regulated (∼3:1 to 2:1) by adjusting the proportion of Co and PdZn. The Janus structure and graphite carbon synergistically play a profound impact on improving the photocatalytic performance. The optimized PdZn-Co catalyst exhibits a superior photocatalytic CO production rate (20.03 µmol/h) and the H₂ generation rate (9.90 µmol/h) with a ratio of CO/H₂ = 2.02.     

Bias-Free Solar-Driven Syngas Production: A Fe2O3 Photoanode Featuring Single-Atom Cobalt Integrated with a Silver-Palladium Cathode

Photoelectrochemical syngas production from aqueous CO₂ is a promising technique for carbon capture and utilization. Herein, we demonstrate the efficient and tunable syngas production by integrating a single-atom cobalt-catalyst-decorated α-Fe₂O₃ photoanode with a bimetallic Ag/Pd alloy cathode. A record syngas production activity of 81.9 μmol cm⁻² h⁻¹ (CO/H₂ ratio: ≈1 : 1) was achieved under artificial sunlight (AM 1.5 G) with an excellent durability. Systematic studies reveal that the Co single atoms effectively extract the holes from Fe₂O₃ photoanodes and serve as active sites for promoting oxygen evolution. Simultaneously, the Pd and Ag atoms in bimetallic cathodes selectively adsorb CO₂ and protons for facilitating CO production. Further incorporation with a photovoltaic, to allow solar light (>600 nm) to be utilized, yields a bias-free CO₂ reduction device with solar-to-CO and solar-to-H₂ conversion efficiencies up to 1.33 and 1.36 %, respectively.     

Solvothermal synthesis of covalent triazine framework and its application in photodegradation of organic dyes

Covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) have recently attracted increasing attention in various fields. However, it is still challenging to prepare CTFs with good crystallinity via an efficient approach under mild conditions. This work offered a useful protocol based on a homogeneous solvothermal monomer/catalyst/solvent system for the preparation of crystalline CTFs, directly from several nitrile-containing monomers. The synthesized CTFs were featured with good crystallinity and high thermal stability. Finally, an afforded CTF material was applied as a photocatalyst for the degradation of Rhodamine B with excellent performance. Meanwhile, the CTF material was found to be chemically stable after the photocatalytic reaction.     

Strong‐Base‐Assisted Synthesis of a Crystalline Covalent Triazine Framework with High Hydrophilicity via Benzylamine Monomer for Photocatalytic Water Splitting

Methods to synthesize crystalline covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) are limited and little attention has been paid to development of hydrophilic CTFs and photocatalytic overall water splitting. A route to synthesize crystalline and hydrophilic CTF‐HUST‐A1 with a benzylamine‐functionalized monomer is presented. The base reagent used plays an important role in the enhancement of crystallinity and hydrophilicity. CTF‐HUST‐A1 exhibits good crystallinity, excellent hydrophilicity, and excellent photocatalytic activity in sacrificial photocatalytic hydrogen evolution (hydrogen evolution rate up to 9200 μmol g^?1 h^?1). Photocatalytic overall water splitting is achieved by depositing dual co‐catalysts in CTF‐HUST‐A1, with H₂ evolution and O₂ evolution rates of 25.4 μmol g^?1 h^?1 and 12.9 μmol g^?1 h^?1 in pure water without using sacrificial agent.     

Efficient Visible‐Light‐Driven Carbon Dioxide Reduction by a Single‐Atom Implanted Metal–Organic Framework

Modular optimization of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) was realized by incorporation of coordinatively unsaturated single atoms in a MOF matrix. The newly developed MOF can selectively capture and photoreduce CO₂ with high efficiency under visible‐light irradiation. Mechanistic investigation reveals that the presence of single Co atoms in the MOF can greatly boost the electron–hole separation efficiency in porphyrin units. Directional migration of photogenerated excitons from porphyrin to catalytic Co centers was witnessed, thereby achieving supply of long‐lived electrons for the reduction of CO₂ molecules adsorbed on Co centers. As a direct result, porphyrin MOF comprising atomically dispersed catalytic centers exhibits significantly enhanced photocatalytic conversion of CO₂, which is equivalent to a 3.13‐fold improvement in CO evolution rate (200.6 μmol g^?1 h^?1) and a 5.93‐fold enhancement in CH₄ generation rate (36.67 μmol g^?1 h^?1) compared to the parent MOF.     

梯型In2O3/ZnIn2S4杂化体系的构建及其光催化固氮增效

工业化固氮合成氨主要采用Haber-Bosch法.然而,该工艺条件苛刻,需要氮气与氢气在高温高压和使用催化剂的条件下反应,耗费大量能源,同时产生温室气体.与Haber-Bosch法不同,光催化固氮不需要使用氢气,而是利用清洁的太阳能和水直接提供固氮反应所需的还原电子和质子,反应耗能低且绿色无污染,是一种理想的固氮方法.然而,目前光催化固氮合成氨受限于光催化剂载流子分离效率低、氮气吸附和活化难,总体固氮效率仍然很低.大量研究证明,构建梯型异质结是一种改善光催化活性的有效手段,这是因为梯型异质结体系不仅有效分离光生载流子,而且保留了光生空穴和电子的强氧化还原能力.另外,表面缺陷不仅可以充当吸附位点,有效调控表面N2分子的吸附特性,还可以起到活化N2分子的作用.本文设计了富含空位的In₂O₃/ZnIn₂S₄梯型异质结,系统考察了复合体系中组分配比对晶型结构、微结构和光学吸收等的影响,并通过XPS谱研究了In₂O₃和ZnIn₂S₄之间存在强的相互作用,这为光生载流子的高效分离奠定了基础.同时,结合XPS、Raman和EPR测试揭示了材料中表面空位的成功构筑.在此基础上,深入研究了In₂O₃/ZnIn₂S₄梯型异质结在室温常压下光催化固氮合成氨的活性.研究结果表明,所有的梯型异质结均展现出明显的光催化固氮活性,其中50 wt%In₂O₃/ZnIn₂S₄梯型体系具有最高的光催化固氮活性,自然光照射2 h产生的氨气浓度达到18.1±0.77 mg·L-1,分别是In₂O₃和ZnIn₂S₄的21.0和2.72倍.并且该复合体系具有较高的光催化稳定性,在连续循环使用6次时,产生氨气浓度仍然可达到16.3±0.86 mg·L^-1.荧光光谱测试、光电化学测试和表面光电压测试证明了电荷的有效分离和转移.综上,构建In₂O₃/ZnIn₂S₄梯型体系后,所制备的In₂O₃/ZnIn₂S₄活性得到增强,这主要归因于空位对氮气的吸附和活化作用以及梯型异质结中载流子的高效分离机制.另外,研究表明·CO₂-物种是光催化固氮合成氨的主要活性物种.
