Synthesis of Bi2WO6/Bi2O3 Composite with Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity by a Facile One‐step Hydrothermal Synthesis Route

In this study, the characterization and photocatalytic activity of Bi₂WO₆/Bi₂O₃ under visible‐light irradiation was investigated in detail. The results suggested that Bi₂WO₆/Bi₂O₃ can be synthesized by a facile one‐pot hydrothermal route using a super big 200 mL Teflon‐lined autoclave with optimal sodium oleate/Bi molar ratio of 1.25. Through the characterization of Bi₂WO₆/Bi₂O₃ by X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared, UV‐vis diffuse reflectance spectra and Photoluminescence spectra, it was found that the as‐prepared composite possessed smaller crystallite size and higher visible‐light responsive than the pure Bi₂WO₆. Moreover, it was expected that the as‐prepared composites exhibited enhanced photocatalytic activity for the degradation of Rhodamine B under visible‐light irradiation, which could be ascribed to their improved light absorption property and the reduced recombination of the photogenerated electrons and holes during the photocatalytic reaction. In general, this study could provide a principle method to synthesize Bi₂WO₆/Bi₂O₃ with enhanced photocatalytic activity by one‐step hydrothermal synthesis route for environmental purification.

Effect of Preparation Methods of Bi2O3 Nanoparticles on their Photocatalytic Activity

Bi2O3 nanoparticles were prepared by means of ammonia precipitation, polyol mediated methods and microemulsion chemical method. The structure and properties of the as-prepared nanoparticles, having been submitted to a heat-treatment test at 750℃, were characterized by means of XRD. BET, XPS and UV-Vis absorption techniques.

The photocatalytic activity of Bi2O3 nanoparticles prepared with the microemulsion chemical method was higher than that of the particles prepared with the polyol mediated method; and that of the particles prepared with the micromulsion chemical method was the highest among the three. The degradation rates of the three pollutants xylene, toluene and benzene decreased in sequence.

Hydrothermal Synthesis of g‐C3N4/NiFe2O4 Nanocomposite and Its Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity

Herein, for the first time, a direct Z‐scheme g‐C₃N₄/NiFe₂O₄ nanocomposite photocatalyst was prepared using facile one‐pot hydrothermal method and characterized using XRD, FT‐IR, DRS, PL, SEM, EDS, TEM, HRTEM, XPS, BET and VSM characterized techniques. The result reveals that the NiFe₂O₄ nanoparticles are loaded on the g‐C₃N₄ sheets successfully. The photocatalytic activities of the as‐prepared photocatalysts were evaluated for the degradation of methyl orange (MO) under visible light irradiation. It was shown that the photocatalytic activity of the g‐C₃N₄/NiFe₂O₄ nanocomposite is about 4.4 and 3 times higher than those of the pristine NiFe₂O₄ and g‐C₃N₄ respectively. The enhanced photocatalytic activity could be ascribed to the formation of g‐C₃N₄/NiFe₂O₄ direct Z‐scheme photocatalyst, which results in efficient space separation of photogenerated charge carriers. More importantly, the as‐prepared Z‐scheme photocatalyst can be recoverable easily from the solution by an external magnetic field and it shows almost the same activity for three consecutive cycles. Considering the simplicity of preparation method, this work will provide new insights into the design of high‐performance magnetic Z‐scheme photocatalysts for organic contaminate removal.

One‐Step Hydrothermal Synthesis of a Porous Cu2O Film and Its Photoelectrochemical Properties

A cuprous oxide (Cu₂O) film with a novel porous structure is successfully synthesized on Cu foil by using a simple hydrothermal method. A redox reaction occurs between Cu and Cu²⁺ in aqueous solution to form the Cu₂O film. The porous structures are formed as a result of the Ostwald ripening mechanism. In addition, photoluminescence measurements indicate that the porous Cu₂O film may reduce the recombination of photogenerated electrons and holes. The UV/Vis absorption property of the porous Cu₂O film is better than that of the granular Cu₂O film, and its high photocurrent is expected to make the porous Cu₂O film more suitable for solar energy applications.

ß‐Ga2O3 Nanorod Synthesis with a One‐step Microwave Irradiation Hydrothermal Method and its Efficient Photocatalytic Degradation for Perfluorooctanoic Acid

ß‐Ga₂O₃ nanorod was first directly prepared by the microwave irradiation hydrothermal way without any subsequent heat treatments, and its characterizations were analyzed by X‐ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), high‐resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), UV–Vis diffuse reflection spectroscopy techniques, and also its photocatalytic degradation for perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) was investigated. XRD patterns revealed that ß‐Ga₂O₃ crystallization increased with the enhancement of microwave power and the adding of active carbon (AC). PFOA, as an environmental and persistent pollutant, is hard decomposed by hydroxyl radicals (HO·); however, it is facilely destroyed by ß‐Ga₂O₃ photocatalytic reaction in an anaerobic atmosphere. The important factors such as pH, ß‐Ga₂O₃ dosage and bubbling atmosphere were researched, and the degradation and defluorination was 98.8% and 56.2%, respectively. Reductive atmosphere reveals that photoinduced electron may be the major reactant for PFOA. Furthermore, the degradation kinetics for PFOA was simulated and constant and half‐life was calculated, respectively.

In this study, TiO₂ nanowires (TNWs) were synthesized through hydrothermal method and were characterized using X‐Ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and BET techniques. Monoclinic TiO₂ (B) is the dominant phase of TNWs up to 600°C which is completely transformed into a highly crystalline anatase phase at 800°C. The photocatalytic activity of TNWs, prepared at various calcination temperatures, was investigated in the removal of Rhodamine B as an organic model pollutant. The results indicated that the photocatalytic activity of TNWs, prepared at 800°C calcination temperature, was better than that of other samples and even TiO₂–P25 nanoparticles.     

Synthesis of 2‐Aminothiazole Derivatives in Easy Two‐Step,One‐Pot Reaction

Condensation of brominated ethyl acetoacetate with thiourea gives 2‐amino‐5‐ethoxycarbonyl‐4‐methylthiazole ( 1 ) and ethyl α‐(2‐amino‐4‐thiazolyl)acetate ( 2 ), indicating that bromination of the substrate occurs on both sides of the carbonyl group. X‐ray diffraction studies indicate weak hydrogen bonds of the amino groups, which are not observed in the IR spectra. The 1 molecule adopts planar S,O‐anti conformation in the crystal lattice, whereas the methylene group, insulating thiazole ring and the ester group in 2 molecule, makes it more flexible and makes the ester group nearly perpendicular to the thiazole ring. The small deviations of the bond lengths and angles indicate mesomeric interaction between complementary substituents across the thiazole ring.

Investigations on the Phase Transformation,Optical Characteristics,and Photocatalytic Activity of Synthesized Heterostructured Nanoporous Bi2O3–TiO2

Fine‐powdered, heterostructured, nanoporous Bi₂O₃–TiO₂ (BTO) was synthesized by a green approach using ultrasonication, with the mole ratio Bi/Ti of 1:1 and calcined at different temperatures. The physical and optical properties of the mixed oxides were investigated. The phase structure, as identified by X‐ray diffraction (XRD), showed the appearance of new phases as a function of the calcination temperature. Morphological examinations indicated the formation of a nanoporous structure with a drastic change in morphology at the calcination temperature of 850°C from a globule to a rod‐shaped structure, which further got transformed to a rocky appearance at 1200°C. Doping with Bi₂O₃ led to the lowering of the bandgap of TiO₂ from 3.25 to 2.5 eV. A BTO nanocatalyst calcined at 450°C exhibited promising photocatalytic activity for the degradation of quinalphos (QP) (92%) after a time interval of 100 min under visible light and at the optimum pH 8. The kinetics of degradation of QP showed that it follows a pseudo‐first‐order path with a rate constant 0.01267 min^?1. The synthesized BTO mixed oxide showed profound improvement in photocatalytic activity in the visible region as compared to TiO₂.     

Study on Photocatalytic Activity of NaTaO3 Powder Synthesized By Hydrothermal Method

Using Ta₂O₅ and NaOH as raw materials, the pure NaTaO₃ powders with good decentrality was synthesized at 140 °C by hydrothermal reaction for 12 h. The phase structure, morphology and microstructure of the powders and the band structure were characterized by X-ray diffraction, the field emission scanning electronic microscope, the transmission electron microscope and UV–Visible diffuse reflectance spectrum. The influences of different NaOH additions on the composition, structure and photocatalytic activities of NaTaO₃ powders were studied. The results show that the powders belong to orthorhombic with a grain size of 0.20–0.74 μm, and the band gap is about 4.00 eV. The optimum effect of photocatalysis is obtained when the concentration of NaOH is 1.0–1.5 mol/L, by which degradation rate of RhB can be up to 92 % after the UV-light irradiation for 210 min.
