Photocatalytic O-2 evolution from water over Zn-Cr layered double hydroxides intercalated with inorganic anions

چکیده
Zn-Cr layered double hydroxides (LDHs) intercalated with inorganic anions (CO3, Cl, SO4 and NO3) were synthesized by the co-precipitation method and the anion exchange process. The photocatalytic activity of the LDHs was studied by O2 evolution from aqueous solution of AgNO3 as a sacrificial agent. All the prepared LDHs showed photocatalytic activity under either UV and/or visible light irradiation. Besides, the interlayer anions affected the photocatalytic activity of the LDHs. After irradiation, Ag particles were formed on the LDHs by accepting the electrons generated during the photocatalytic reaction.

ANION EXCHANGE REACTIONS OF LAYERED DOUBLE HYDROXIDES (LDHs) AND LAYERED HYDROXY SALTS (LHSs): QUANTIFICATION OF ION EXCHANGE Abstract Anion exchange reactions of a number of layered double hydroxides with inorganic anions
Anion exchange reactions of a number of layered double hydroxides with inorganic anions were investigated. The five LDH systems used in this study were Mg-Al, Ni-Al, Co-Al, Zn-Al and Zn-Cr. Ni-Zn hydroxynitrate and Ni-Zn hydroxyacetate were the LHSs used in this work. In general, all the LDHs and nickel zinc hydroxysalts exhibited higher extent of exchange towards chloride ions. The extent of e...
متن کاملEnhanced luminescence of europium-doped layered double hydroxides intercalated by sensitiser anions.
Four sensitising anions naphthalene-1,5-disulfonate (15-NDS), naphthalene-2,6-dicarboxylate (26-NDC), benzoate (BA) and terephthalate (TA) were intercalated into a Eu(3+)-doped Zn/Al layered double hydroxide. The carboxylate anions enhanced the red luminescence of Eu(3+) much more strongly than the sulfonate, in the descending order TA > 26-NDC > BA > 15-NDS.

In this paper, the inexpensive 4,4-diaminostilbene-2,2-disulfonate (DAS) and 4,4-dinitro-stilbene-2,2- disulfonate (DNS) anions with arbitrary molar ratios were successfully co-intercalated into Zn2Al-layered double hydroxides (LDHs). The DAS(50%)-DNS/LDHs composite exhibited the broad UV-visible light absorption and fluorescence quenching, which was a direct indication of photo-induced electro...
