Photocatalytic oxidation of organic dyes with nanostructured zinc dioxide modified with silver metals

Silver-doped nano-ZnO samples with different Ag loadings were prepared by a one-spot solvothermal method. The structure, physico-chemical and optical properties of the products are characterized by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDS), diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and photoluminescence spectra (PL). The photocatalytic activity of the as-prepared samples was examined by using photocatalytic oxidation of methyl orange (MO) as a model reaction, and the effects of the noble metal content on the photocatalytic activity were investigated. The results indicated that the photocatalytic activity of ZnO nanoparticles can be greatly improved by depositing appropriate amount of noble metal on their surface as electron scavengers. In addition, a key mechanism was proposed in order to account for the enhanced activity. The enhancement for the photocatalytic activities can be attributed to the interaction between Ag particles and ZnO, which made Ag particles act as electron traps to effectively separate the excited electron-hole pairs.

Preparation and photocatalytic activity of carbon dot/Ag/AgCl

CD (carbon dot)/Ag/AgCl compound photocatalysts with different compounding degrees were prepared via a precipitation method, and their physiochemical properties were characterized by X‐ray diffraction, FE‐SEM, UV–vis and the like. Through the degradation experiment of methyl orange (MO), the effects of different compounding amount and methyl orange concentration on photocatalytic degradation were investigated to find the best ratio. It was found the photocatalytic activity of CD/Ag/AgCl was significantly higher than Ag/AgCl, and the best compounding dosage was 6 mg/l carbon dot. The degradation rate of CD/Ag/AgCl was lower when the initial MO concentration was higher. Five repeated experiments were conducted to test the stability of the catalysts, and showed the MO degradation rates were all above 85%, indicating the CD/Ag/AgCl compound photocatalysts all showed high stability and repeatability. The reaction mechanism of CD/Ag/AgCl photocatalyst was studied by electrochemical experiments and ESR experiments. The results show that the doping of CD effectively improves the photocatalytic degradation ability of MO.     

Synthesis of an Ag–ZnO nanocomposite catalyst for visible light-assisted degradation of a textile dye in aqueous solution

The photocatalytic activity of silver-deposited ZnO in the photodegradation of methyl orange (MO) was investigated. The as-prepared photocatalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction, UV–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The results showed that the silver-deposited ZnO had a visible light plasmon absorption band. The photocatalytic degradation experiment revealed that the catalytic efficiency of the Ag–ZnO composite in the degradation of MO was greater than that of pure ZnO samples. This study shows that the degradation process is dominated by the Ag–ZnO photocatalytic system, complying with a pseudo-first-order rate law. Under the experimental conditions, approximately 65.0% dye removal was achieved within 100 min.     

One pot synthesis of Ag nanoparticle modified ZnO microspheres in ethylene glycol medium and their enhanced photocatalytic performance

Ag nanoparticles (NPs) modified ZnO microspheres (Ag/ZnO microspheres) were prepared by a facile one pot strategy in ethylene glycol (EG) medium. The EG played two important roles in the synthesis: it could act as a reaction media for the formation of ZnO and reduce Ag⁺ to Ag⁰. A series of the characterizations indicated the successful combination of Ag NPs with ZnO microspheres. It was shown that Ag modification could greatly enhance the photocatalytic efficiency of ZnO microspheres by taking the photodegradation of Rhodamine B as a model reaction. With appropriate ratio of Ag and ZnO, Ag/ZnO microspheres showed the better photocatalytic performance than commercial Degussa P-25 TiO₂. Photoluminescence and surface photovoltage spectra demonstrated that Ag modification could effectively inhibit the recombination of the photoinduced electron and holes of ZnO. This is responsible for the higher photocatalytic activity of Ag/ZnO composites.

Microwave-assisted solution synthesis and photocatalytic activity of Ag nanoparticles supported on ZnO nanostructure flowers

Ag nanoparticles supported on the surface of three-dimensional (3D) flower-like ZnO nanostructure were synthesized by a microwave-assisted solution method. The obtained products were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectrophotometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The analytical results confirmed homogeneously distributed Ag nanoparticles supported on the surface of flower-like ZnO nanostructure. The photocatalytic effect of the heterostructure Ag/ZnO nanocomposites was investigated using photodegradation under ultraviolet (UV) light of methylene blue as model dye. The heterostructure Ag/ZnO nanocomposites exhibited much higher photocatalytic activity than pure ZnO flowers. The improved photocatalytic properties are attributed to formation of a Schottky barrier at the metal–semiconductor interface of the Ag/ZnO nanocomposites.     

Sunlight responsive photocatalysts: AgBr/ZnO hybrid nanomaterial

A novel high-effective sunlight-induced AgBr/ZnO hybrid nanophotocatalyst has been synthesized and it was characterized by different techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry (UV-vis). The AgBr/ZnO hybrid nanophotocatalyst has excellent photocatalytic activity for photodegradation of methyl orange (MO) under sunlight irradiation. The MO degradation efficiency for AgBr/ZnO is about 98% after 1 hour under sunlight irradiation. These results suggested that AgBr/ZnO is a promising candidate for the development of highly efficient sunlight photocatalysts. In addition, the photocatalytic mechanism of AgBr/ZnO under sunlight irradiation is illustrated and discussed.

Comparative Studies on Degradation of Methyl Orange by Nanostructured Zinc and Zinc Oxide Films

Nanostructured zinc and zinc oxide films were prepared by magnetron sputtering processes and succeeded air annealing treatments. Comparison of reductive degradation rate of methyl orange (MO) by zinc films and photocatalytic degradation rate of MO by zinc oxide films was carried out. Both reductive degradation and photocatalytic degradation process of MO by zinc and zinc oxide films can be described by first order kinetic model. It was found that although MO liquid was most quickly decolorized by metallic zinc films, the mineraliza-tion of MO was not thorough. Observation of extra ultraviolet absorption peaks indicated the formation of aromatic intermediates. On the other hand, although the photocatalytic degradation rate of MO liquid by ZnO films was only as about 1/4 large as the reductive degradation rate by zinc films, no signs of aromatic intermediates were found. Moreover, it was found that partially oxidized zinc oxide film showed higher photocatalytic efficiency than the totally oxidized ZnO films. Synergy effect between zinc and zinc oxide phase in the partially oxidized films was considered to be responsible for the higher photocatalytic efficiency.

Ag/AgCl/铁-海泡石异相可见光Fenton催化降解双酚A

光-Fenton技术是高级氧化技术中的一种,常用于难降解废水处理,由于其反应速度快、毒性低、反应条件温和而受到广泛关注.然而,传统的光-Fenton体系具有可见光利用率低、回收困难等缺点.为了解决这些问题,本文采用廉价易得、无污染、吸附能力强的天然矿物海泡石作为催化剂载体,并利用Ag/AgCl能够吸收可见光的表面等离子响应这一光学性质,合成了一种有潜力的非均相等离子体光催化剂Ag/AgCl/铁-海泡石催化剂(Ag/AgCl/Fe-S),并对该催化剂的形貌结构、性能和机理等进行了系统研究.通过XRD,SEM,XPS,BET,UV-vis等表征手段对催化剂形貌、结构和可见光性能进行了分析.其中,XRD和SEM结果显示,Ag/AgCl粒子已经成功负载在Fe-海泡石上;XPS结果显示,铁氧化物的组成主要为FeOOH和Fe2O3;UV-vis结果显示,催化剂有较好的可见光吸收性能.以双酚A为目标污染物,分别考察了Ag/AgCl/Fe-S,Ag/AgCl和Fe-海泡石的光-Fenton催化性能.结果显示,Ag/AgCl/Fe-S降解双酚A的效果明显优于另外两种催化剂,在H2O2浓度为6mmol/L,pH为4,光照强度500W,Ag/AgCl/Fe-S催化剂量为1.0 g/L,双酚A初始浓度为10 mg/L的条件下,1 h时,双酚A基本被完全降解,且3 h时,其矿化率达到61.2%;而Ag/AgCl和Fe-海泡石催化剂在同样的条件下完全降解双酚A至少要3 h,且其矿化率分别只有46.61%和28.85%.另外,还分别探讨了H2O2浓度、pH值、光照强度和催化剂剂量对双酚A降解的影响.最后,通过活性物种捕获、ESR、电化学和PL实验对该体系的反应机理进行了探讨.活性物种捕获实验和ESR实验结果表明,羟基自由基(?OH)和空穴(h+)是该体系中的主要活性物种,且Ag/AgCl/Fe-S+H2O2+vis体系产生的?OH明显多于Fe-S+H2O2+vis体系.为了探讨?OH增多的原因,我们进行了电化学实验和PL实验.电化学实验结果显示,Ag/AgCl/Fe-S催化剂具有更低的阻抗,因此有利于电子-空穴分离.PL结果显示,Ag/AgCl/Fe-S催化剂的电子-空穴复合率更低.结合以上实验,我们提出了Ag/AgCl/Fe-S+H2O2+vis体系对双酚A的降解机理,即一方面催化剂能够发生Fenton反应而产生?OH,另一方面,催化剂中的Ag/AgCl在可见光下由于表面等离子响应而产生电子-空穴,空穴本身可作为活性物种降解双酚A.同时,产生的电子被体系中的Fe3+捕获生成Fe2+,从而促进了铁循环,有利于体系中产生更多的?OH.最后,空穴和羟基自由基发生协同作用共同促进污染物降解.
