支持氧化锆的 CuO (CuO/ZrO2 ) 合成光催化剂成功地经由柠檬性的帮助酸的大音阶的第五音胶化被综合技术。为比较, CuO/ZrO2 材料被稳固的州的反应和一起沉淀方法也准备。同样准备的粉末被 X 光检查描绘 diffractometry (XRD ) ,传播电子显微镜学(TEM ) ,和 thermogravimetric 微分的热分析(TG-DTA ) 。CuO/ZrO2 催化剂的 photocatalytic 活动在模仿的日光照耀下面从草酸酸答案基于 H2 进化被调查。到 ZrO2,准备方法,有锻烧温度的阶段变化和在光催化剂的 photocatalytic 活动的耐久性的 CuO 的臼齿的比率的效果详细被调查。它被发现 photocatalytic H2 进化的最佳的活动(2.41 mmol
Zirconia-supported CuO (CuO/ZrO2) composite photocatalysts were successfully synthesized via citric acid-assisted sol-gel technique. For comparison, CuO/ZrO2 materials were also prepared by solid state reaction and co-precipitation method. The as-prepared powders were characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and thermogravimetric-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA). The photocatalytic activity of CuO/ZrO2 catalyst was investigated based on the H2 evolution from oxalic acid solution under simulated sunlight irradiation. The effects of molar ratio of CuO to ZrO2, preparation method, phase change with the calcination temperature and the durability on the photocatalytic activity of the photocatalyst were investigated in detail. It is found that the optimal activity of photocatalytic H2 evolution (2.41 mmol.h i.g-~) can be obtained when CuO/ZrO2 composite photocatalyst is synthesized by sol-gel technique and the mole ratio of CuO to ZrO2 is 40%. The activity of copper oxide supported on monoclinic ZrO2 calcined at higher temperature is much higher than that on tetragonal ZrO2 calcined at lower temperature, and the best calcination temperature is 900 ℃.
