To overcome the scarcity and costliness of noble metal dopants, carbon (C) doping, as a low-cost alternative, was achieved by absorbent cotton when the alpha (α)-Fe2O3 microtubules were synthesized with a facile hydrothermal method and necessary calcination. The absorbent cotton not only provided carbon source but controlled the microtubular morphology of α-Fe2O3. Meanwhile, for comparison, a pure α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles sample was also prepared without using absorbent cotton. Numerous techniques were employed to characterize the element composition and microstructures. The consequences demonstrated that carbon had been successfully incorporated into the porous hollow α-Fe2O3 microtubules composed of many nanoparticles. Compared with the α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles, the carbon-doped α-Fe2O3 microtubules possessed the unique morphology, large specific surface area and pore size, and abundant oxygen vacancies (OV). To reveal the function of the carbon-doped α-Fe2O3 microtubules and α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles, two chemical gas sensors were manufactured and researched systematically. Forasmuch as those advantages mentioned above, the sensor based on the carbon-doped α-Fe2O3 microtubules exhibited better gas sensing properties to acetic acid vapor at a lower optimal operating temperature of 260 °C, such as higher response value, shorter response and recovery time, good repeatability, and stability. And thence the carbon-doped α-Fe2O3 microtubules product could be considered as an excellent acetic acid vapor sensor in the future. In addition, the possible grown mechanism and gas sensing mechanism of the carbon-doped α-Fe2O3 microtubules were discussed in detail. The work provides a new strategy to improve the gas sensing performance of α-Fe2O3 material. 相似文献

Hydroxyapatite has been synthesized using eggshell membrane as bio-template along with the assistance of microwave heating. Eggshell membrane is infiltrated with calcium and phosphorous precursors before heating it in a domestic microwave oven. Hydroxyapatite formed retained the interwoven hierarchical structure of the eggshell membrane. Structural analysis was performed using X-ray diffraction, and the microstructural features are characterized by scanning electron microscopy. Distinct morphological features were present in microwave processed hydroxyapatite when compared to the conventionally processed one. Transmission electron microscopic investigations and BET surface area analysis were also carried out. 相似文献

Hierarchical pore structure nano-sized SnO2 was synthesized using a solvothermal method with SnCl4 as the raw material and grapefruit peel as the bio-template. The products were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, high resolution scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and nitrogen adsorption/desorption measurements. The results show that the SnO2 prepared from the grapefruit peel bio-template consists of many large size (5–20 µm) interconnected pores with a honeycomb structure and nanosized pores (9.46 nm) on the walls of the large pores. The as-prepared SnO2 presented a high specific surface area of 42.98 m2/g and the average crystallite size was about 10±0.5 nm. The gas sensing performance of the prepared material toward several volatile organic compounds was investigated. The results show that the hierarchical pore structure nano-sized SnO2 was highly sensitive and selective to n-butanol, indicating that this material may be a promising candidate for future development as a n-butanol gas sensor. 相似文献

In this study, we described a green, sustainable, and feasible method for synthesizing 5 nm NiO nanoparticles. Eggplant skin was chosen as an appropriate bio-template with a high potential to induce its structure into the desired metal oxide. Two approaches were used and compared to synthesize NiO bio-template: hydrothermal and sol-gel. The morphology and physical properties of the obtained NiO nanoparticles were evaluated using FESEM, TEM, XRD, BET, FT-IR, TGA, and UV–Vis analyses. All these methods confirm that the hydrothermal method is a better approach for synthesizing NiO bio-template nanoparticles than the sol-gel method. UV–Vis analysis revealed that the NiO nanoparticles produced by the hydrothermal method have a low bandgap of 2.88 eV, which is a key factor for photocatalytic applications. 相似文献

Bio-mimetic C-doped graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) with mesoporous microtubular structure has been prepared by a simple chemical wet bio-template impregnation approach (direct impregnation and hydrothermal impregnation) using urea as a precursor and kapok fibre as bio-template and in-situ carbon dopant. Our finding indicated that the hydrothermal impregnation had induced more in-situ C-doping in g-C3N4 as compared to the direct impregnation approach. The introduction of in-situ C doping in the g-C3N4 and the mesoporous microtubular structure remarkably enhanced light-harvesting capability up to near infrared regions. The photocurrent measurement and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) analysis suggested that the bio-template C-doped g-C3N4 exhibits a superior photoinduced electron-hole pairs separation efficiency due to C doping and mesoporous microtubular structure significantly promotes excellent conductivity and electron redistribution in the sample. C-doped graphitic carbon nitride sample prepared by the hydrothermal (HB/g-C3N4) approach exhibits excellent photocatalytic hydrogen production with an H2 production rate of 216.8 μmol h−1 g−1 which was a 1.3 and 2.9 improvement over C-doped graphitic carbon nitride prepared by direct impregnation (DB/g-C3N4) and pristine g-C3N4, respectively. This study provides new insights into the development of low-cost and sustainable photocatalysts for photocatalytic hydrogen production. 相似文献

Meso-porous SnO2 fibers were synthesized using a solvothermal method with metaplexis fruit as the bio-template. The products were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, high resolution scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and nitrogen adsorption/desorption measurements. Results show that SnO2 fibers present a high specific surface area of 73.665 m2/g and a meso-porous structure with the pore size of 7.821 nm, and the crystal size of SnO2 is about 6.5 ± 0.5 nm. The gas sensing performance of the prepared SnO2 fibers toward several volatile organic compounds was investigated. The results show that the meso-porous SnO2 fibers were highly sensitive and selective to n-butanol. 相似文献

Following green chemistry principles and the significant role of catalysts in chemical transformations, in this study, for the first time, Ni@Al2O3 nanoparticles were prepared via a green, a sustainable, and practical approach using the waste management concept. To achieve this goal, the eggplant skin was employed as an abundant and green bio-template to synthesize desired materials, applying for biogas reforming (CH4/CO2 = 1:1) at four temperatures (600–750 °C). Synthesized materials were fully characterized and according to the findings, the bio-template was able to induce its structure on prepared materials and had a considerable effect on the activity of nickel-based alumina catalysts thanks to the high dispersion of Ni nanoparticles on the prepared materials. This catalyst could tolerate the reaction conditions even after 30 h of the catalytic run at 650 °C, along with a remarkable coke resistance (less than 4% carbon deposition). 相似文献
