TiO2上的CuAg纳米粒子用于高效乙醛光降解

光降解乙醛(CH3CHO)是一种新型高效的乙醛去除方法，通常采用TiO2作为光催化剂。然而TiO2对乙醛吸附能力较弱，对产物的选择性较低，电子-空穴对重组率较高，严重限制了对乙醛的降解性能。本研究通过在TiO2上负载CuAg纳米粒子(CuAg/TiO2)，成功构建了高效稳定的光催化降解乙醛催化剂，有效解决了TiO2的固有缺陷。在自然光照射下，CuAg/TiO2对乙醛的降解率高达42.49%。连续4轮全光谱光催化降解乙醛，CuAg/TiO2活性均保持在98.89%以上。进一步的机理研究表明，CuAg/TiO2中的CuAg纳米粒子在光照下产生热电子，随后热电子转移到TiO2和吸附在Ag位点上的氧中。CuAg/TiO2上生成的超氧自由基能有效地降解乙醛，从而在乙醛降解过程中表现出优异的性能。     

Hydrothermal fabrication of p-Cu2O−n-ZnO films and their properties for photodegradation and ultraviolet sensors

This article reports spin coating and hydrothermal approaches to the synthesis of Cu₂O seed layer−ZnO and Cu₂O film−ZnO heterojunction films on fluorine-doped tin oxide substrates. Cu₂O seed layers and an ethylene glycol (EG) reducing agent were employed to obtain pure, uniform, and adhesive Cu₂O films on the substrate. Transmission electron microscopy validated the heterojunctions with clear interfaces between each component on the p-Cu₂O film−n-ZnO (with EG) sample, the conductive types of which were determined through Mott−Schottky measurements. Constructed energy band diagrams supported the Mott−Schottky result, manifesting favorable conduction band positions for the generation of •O₂⁻ radicals for all constituent materials and indicating smooth charge carrier transport for the p-Cu₂O film−n-ZnO (with EG) sample. Furthermore, abundant p−n junction interfaces synergistically enabled the sample to exhibit the most satisfactory photodegradation capability (rate constant ≈ 8.9 × 10⁻³ min⁻¹), which was attributable to the predominance of •OH radicals. The sample's rectifying (diode) behavior with a ratio of the current density (J) at +3 V (forward bias) to that at −3 V (reverse bias) of approximately 27 was observed without ultraviolet illumination. Moreover, the J at −3 V is under illumination approximately 80 times that without illumination, implying the suitability of the sample for UV detectability.

Tailoring the bandgap of N-rich graphitic carbon nitride for enhanced photocatalytic activity

Nitrogen - rich graphitic carbon nitride (Ng-C₃N₄) with improved photocatalytic activity was engineered using a facile post-annealing treatment of pristine g-C₃N₄ in N₂ atmosphere. The thermal annealing did not modify the crystal structure, vibrational modes, or morphology of the N-rich g-C₃N₄ (Ng-C₃N₄). However, it decreased the crystallinity by broadening the dominant X-ray diffraction (XRD) peak and increased the surface area and mesoporous nature because of the formation of carbon vacancies. Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy indicated that the bandgap of the annealed Ng-C₃N₄ decreased from 2.82 to 2.77 eV compared to pristine g-C₃N₄. The increase of nitrogen content in the annealed Ng-C₃N₄ was quantified by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), which was also used to examine the formation of carbon vacancies. Photocurrent and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements showed that the annealed Ng-C₃N₄ had higher light absorption capacity than the pristine g-C₃N₄. The photocatalytic performance of the samples was investigated for the degradation of crystal violet (CV) under ultra-violet light irradiation. The annealed Ng-C₃N₄ sample exhibited superior photodegradation of CV over pristine g-C₃N₄.     

CONTROLLED AGGREGATION OF POLYMER LATICES PART 3. INFLUENCE OF TEMPERATURE AND SURFACE CHEMISTRY

ABSTRACT

The possibility of obtaining narrowly dispersed particles through the controlled aggregation of polymer latices has been investigated. Concentrated polystyrene, poly(styrene-co-acrylic acid) and poly(styrene-co-butadiene-co-acrylic acid) latices were aggregated through the addition cationic surfactant under stirring. The method under investigation was proven to be effective in obtaining 5-15 urn particles with a narrow size distribution and a strong control of the average size. The aggregation properties of polymer latices were related to their chemical nature (chemical structure of the polymer and surface chemistry); the trends observed were explained through calculations of the fundamental forces involved in this process. Important differences were found between the aggregation of the latices that contain acrylic acid as a comonomer and those without acrylic acid. Narrow size distributions, with geometric standard deviations between 1.2–1.35 were obtained only for the latices containing acrylic acid. It was shown that on the surface of these particles there is a hairy layer formed by the polyacrylic acid chains. The thickness of this layer is dependent on the chemical environment and temperature. Its presence was demonstrated by capillary viscometry and electrophoretic mobility measurements.
