首先利用水热法制备了由纳米片组装的粒径为1.5–2μm的Bi2WO6微球,然后在微球表面沉积了不同含量的AgC l(5 wt%,10 wt%,20 wt%,30 wt%),制备了异质结构Ag Cl/Bi2WO6微球光催化剂.利用X射线粉末衍射、扫描电镜、透射电镜、红外光谱、紫外-可见漫反射吸收等手段对所制的光催化剂进行表征,并以紫外光和可见光分别为光源,罗丹明B为降解对象测试了其光催化活性,考察复合不同含量的AgC l对Bi2WO6光催化剂的性能影响.结果表明,沉积AgC l对Bi2WO6的晶体结构、表面性能和光吸收性能没有产生明显影响,但大幅度提高了Bi2WO6的紫外和可见光催化活性.当复合20 wt%Ag Cl时,AgC l/Bi2WO6光催化活性最佳,紫外光下比纯Bi2WO6提高了2.2倍,可见光下提高了1倍.这主要是由于形成的Ag Cl/Bi2WO6异质结能有效抑制光生电子和空穴的复合,从而提了其光催化性能.
Bi2WO6 microspheres with a diameter of 1.5-2 pm were prepared by a hydrothermal method, and then coated with different contents of AgCl to form heterostructured AgCl/Bi2WO6 microspheres. The prepared Bi2WO6 and AgC1/Bi2WO6 photocatalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction, N2 physical adsorption, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The pho- tocatalytic activity of the catalysts was evaluated by photocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B under ultraviolet and visible light irradiation. Results showed that the deposition of AgCl had no obvious effect on the light absorption and surface properties of Bi2WO6. However, the heterostruc- tured AgCI/Bi2WO6 photocatalysts exhibited considerably higher activity than the pure AgCl and Bi2WO6 catalysts. With the optimal AgCl content of 20 wt%, the photocatalytic activity of the hetero- structured AgCl/Bi2WO6 catalyst was increased under both ultraviolet and visible light compared with that of Bi2WO6. The main reason for the enhanced photocatalytic activity is attributed to the formation of AgCl/Bi2WO6 heterostructures effectively suppressing the recombination of photo- generated electrons and holes.
