Exceptional visible-light-driven photocatalytic activity over BiOBr-ZnFe2O4 heterojunctions.

چکیده
An ultrasound-assisted, precipitation-deposition method has been developed to synthesise visible-light-responsive BiOBr-ZnFe(2)O(4) heterojunction photocatalysts. The heterojunctions with suitable BiOBr/ZnFe(2)O(4) ratios have a fascinating micro-spherical morphology and exhibit exceptional photocatalytic activity in visible-light degradation of Rhodamine B.

ZnFe2O4 nanoparticle: Synthesis and photocatalytic activity under UV-vis and visible light
In the present work, the ZnFe2O4 nanoparticle has been successfully synthesized. The obtained sample was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and its optical property was examined by UV-Vis spectrophotometer. FE-SEM revealed that the particle size of the ZnFe2O4 of about 47 nm was synthesized. The photocatalytic performance under UV-Vis and vi...
متن کاملThe Study of Photocatalytic Degradation Mechanism under Visible Light Irradiation on BiOBr/Ag Nanocomposite
Due to the pollution of dyeing and textile industry wastewaters in different colors and the need to remove these pollutants from the wastewaters, it is necessary to study and develop effective and efficient technology solutions required. To remove dye from aqueous solutions, photodegradation is employed as an effectively simple way. Thus, the BiOBr photocatalyst was chemically made by synthesis...
متن کاملFacet-dependent performance of BiOBr for photocatalytic reduction of Cr(vi)
Hexavalent chromium Cr(VI) is one of the forms of chromium that poses a health risk to humans because of its high acute toxicity and carcinogenic activity. Trivalent chromium Cr(III) is much less toxic and could be easily removed from wastewater as a solid by alkalinication and precipitation. Thus, developing effective technologies capable of reducing Cr(VI) to Cr(III) is of great importance f...
متن کاملCuO/CuSCN valence state heterojunctions with visible light enhanced and ultraviolet light restrained photocatalytic activity.
CuSCN is applied, for the first time, in a photocatalytic system to form CuO/CuSCN valence state heterojunctions, which exhibited enhanced visible light driven photocatalytic activity and, surprisingly, ultraviolet light restrained activity. Proper migration of photo-generated carriers is proposed to explain the photocatalytic process.
متن کاملA facile ultrasonic-assisted fabrication of nitrogen-doped carbon dots/BiOBr up-conversion nanocomposites for visible light photocatalytic enhancements
A highly efficient novel photocatalyst consisting of nitrogen-carbon dots (N-CDs) and three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical BiOBr was synthesized via a simple ultrasonic-assisted method and used for the degradation of hazardous dyes. Deposition of N-CDs onto the surface of BiOBr was confirmed through structure and composition characterizations. The N-CDs/BiOBr composites exhibited superior activi...
