Field of the invention
The present invention belongs to the field of water pollution control technical, in particular to a low-dimensional MxOy/Bi 2WO 6 heterostructured nano-material photocatalyst, a preparation method and an application thereof.
Description of related art
Chang in the rate of a chemical reaction or its initiation under the action of ultraviolet, visible, or infrared radiation in the presence of a substance-the photocatalysy-that absorbs light and is involved in the chemical transformation of the reaction partners. Photocatalytic technology convert the inexhaustible solar energy into chemical energy or electrical energy, and has great application potential in the fields of degradation of organic pollutants, reduction of heavy metal ions, photolysis of water to produce hydrogen and oxygen, artificial photosynthesis, and catalysis of organic synthesis reactions. Photocatalyst is the key to this technology. However, the photocatalysts still have some defects in terms of solar light absorption, photocatalytic efficiency, physical and chemical stability, and preparation cost. The solar photocatalytic oxidation technology with semiconductor photocatalytic materials has drawn more and more attention to scientific researchers. The purpose is to develop the photocatalyst with high solar energy utilization and catalytic activity, good stability and recyclability. The primary property related to the photocatalytic activity of a semiconductor material is the energy band structure, thereby, implementing energy band engineering is the basis for the design and construction of efficient semiconductor photocatalytic materials. The photocatalytic performance of the classic TiO 2-based semiconductor photocatalyst has been improved after structural design, but still difficult to efficiently use sunlight. In recent years, researchers have spended a large effort to find some high-performance visible-near infrared photocatalysts and expected to realize the high-efficiency conversion of solar photocatalysis by extending the light absorption range of the photocatalyst. Bi 2 WO 6 has Aurivillius layered structure with the band gap of 2.75 eV. While single Bi 2 WO 6 material has low quantum efficiency and a few active sites, and can only utilize the visible light below 450 nm, which restricts the practical application of Bi2 WO material. Constructing heterojunction interface and taking advantage of the synergistic coupling between semiconductors in energy band structure engineering can promote the separation of photogenerated carriers, cause the two-photon process and improve the photocatalytic activity significantly. Liu Hong et al. assembled Bi2 WO nanosheets with visible-near-infrared photocatalytic activity onto TiO2 nanobelts, achieved the catalysis in the range of UV-Vis-NIR broad spectrum, which provides important design ideas and material foundations for realizing solar-driven photocatalytic degradation. The nano-particle photocatalyst has the characteristics of easy agglomeration, poor dispersibility, low utilization rate, difficult recovery, and poor repeatability. While the fiber materials prepared by electrospinning are uniform dispersion, and using the polymer as template make them have good flexibility and easy operation. The materials synthesized by electrospinning generally have large specific surface area, porosity and heterojunction interface. Large specific surface area is in favor of increasing the contact area between the catalyst and the reactants, increasing the reactive sites, and pores facilitate gas transport and diffusion, all which are the key factors to improve the catalytic efficiency in the field of catalysis. Electrospinning, a simple and low-cost technology, has been developed as a universal method for preparing nano- or micro-fibers with a specified one-dimensional structure, and applied in many research fields, such as photocatalysis, lithium ion batteries, sodium ion batteries, etc. This technology, simple in process, high in yield, can continuously produce ultra-long fibers with controllable one-dimensional morphology, and is easy to form a microporous structure during the firing process, and therefore has attracted the attention of many researchers. Chinese invention patents with publication numbers CN108607498A and CN109894123A disclosed a preparation method and application of Bi 2 WO6 with enhanced adsorption performance and Preparation method and application of supported Bi2 WO 6 photocatalyst, respectively. In both of them, Bi2 WO 6 with strong adsorption were prepared by hydrothermal method and using Bi(N ) 3 3 and Na2 WO 6 as raw materials. However, the catalyst needs to have a degree of adsorption capacity to adsorb the reactants on the surface, and then charges transfer occurs on the interface during the catalytic reaction process. Too strong adsorption is not good for the catalytic reaction, because too strong adsorption is not conducive to the desorption of the products. The Bi2 WO material prepared by hydrothermal method limits its application in the field of photocatalysis. So, there is broad application prospects to develop a low-dimensional MOy/Bi 2WO6 heterostructured nano-material photocatalyst.
