以过渡金属离子M(M代表Cr或V)掺杂为改性手段,通过改变掺杂量,合成了一系列分子筛光催化剂M(x)-HMS (x代表M/Si投料摩尔比).用X射线荧光光谱(XRF)、低温N2吸附-脱附、X射线衍射(XRD)、紫外-可见吸收漫反射光谱(UV-vis)、高分辨透射电子显微镜(HRTEM)和X射线能量散射谱(EDXS)对M(x)-HMS进行了表征和分析.以高压汞灯为光源,以甲酸分解产氢为探针反应,研究了M(x)-HMS的光催化性能,发现Cr(x)-HMS和V(x)-HMS的产氢速率随组成变化呈双峰规律(均在x=0.01和0.05时出现两个极大值),并从光催化剂的组成和结构角度给予了解释.
A series of transition metal doped photocatalysts, denoted as M(x)-HMS (here, M represents Cr or V, x represents the molar ratio of M/Si in the feed reagents and HMS represents hexagonal mesoporous silica molecular sieves), were synthesized by adjusting the value of x. The HMS materials were characterized and analyzed by X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF), N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD), ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectra (UV-vis), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS). The photocatalytic activity was investigated using high pressure mercury lamp as the light source and the decomposition of formic acid to produce hydrogen as probe-reaction. Interestingly, the rate of hydrogen production for both Cr(x)-HMS and V(x)-HMS shows bimodal character which coincidentally corresponds to the x value of 0.01 and 0.05, and it was interpreted in terms of the components and structures of M(x)-HMS.
