CdS/CNT-TiO2光催化剂的合成及其对亚甲基蓝的光催化降解（英文）

采用多壁碳纳米管(MWCNTs)为载体,分别以醋酸镉((CH3COO)2Cd.2H2O)和硫化钠(Na2S.5H2O)为镉源和硫源,经简单逐滴滴入途径制备了CdS/CNT复合材料。再以四丁氧基钛(TNB)为钛源,苯为溶剂,成功地将二氧化钛(TiO2)纳米粒子沉积在CdS修饰的MWCNTs表面而得到CdS/CNT-TiO2光催化剂。利用N2吸附等温线、扫描电子显微镜、X射线衍射、能量分散性X射线分析以及透射电子显微镜对所制CdS/CNT-TiO2光催化剂进行表征。CdS/CNT-TiO2复合材料呈多孔结构,MWCNTs均匀分散在材料中,且未出现明显的TiO2和CdS纳米颗粒团聚体。该材料在紫外和可见光照射下对亚甲基蓝具有优异的降解活性。这不仅归因于TiO2对自由基的反应和MWCNTs吸附能力,且归因于引入窄带隙半导体CdS,使粒子在MWCNTs表面的电子转移速率得到提高。     

ZnO/CdS/Ag复合光催化剂的制备及其催化和抗菌性能

Preparation of photosensitized nanocrystalline TiO(2) hydrosol by nanosized CdS at low temperature

A new method was developed for the fabrication of CdS-TiO(2) semiconductor nanoparticles as visible-light-excitable photocatalyst at low temperatures. Nanosized CdS acting as an effective and stable sensitizer was incorporated into TiO(2) by microemulsion-mediated solvothermal hydrolyzation followed by acidic peptization of the precipitate under 70?°C. The new method avoided the calcination or other pyrochemical treatments involved in traditional preparations, and thus eliminated the unwanted agglomeration of nanoparticles or the oxidation of CdS by oxygen. Compared to traditional methods, it was highly simplified, bypassing those miscellaneous steps like filtration, sintering, milling and redispersion in solutions. The crystal structure, configuration, element composition, as well as the light-absorption properties of the obtained CdS-TiO(2) hydrosol were characterized in detail. The hydrosol consisting of uniform and small crystalline particles of about 2?nm in diameter was thermodynamically stable and showed good dispersibility. The photocatalytic activity of the 'coupled' material was confirmed through the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB) dye under visible light irradiation, and the cooperative photocatalytic mechanism is discussed.

Preparation and photocatalytic activity of nanoglued Sn-doped TiO2

In this paper, Sn-doped TiO(2) photocatalyst was prepared and immobilized on a glass substrate using an about-to-gel SiO(2) sol as a nanoglue. The characterization of the Sn-doped TiO(2) by XRD showed that 5% Sn content is formed by anatase and rutile crystallites. Characterization of the nanoglued photocatalyst by the BET measurement, TEM, and SEM showed that the photocatalyst was a nanoporous material with a high-surface area. The Sn-doped TiO(2) was uniformly dispersed within the three-dimensional network of the silica in the form of nanoparticles. The nanoglued photocatalyst showed high photocatalytic activity during the degradation of penicillin under UV light. The effect of different Sn content on the amount of hydroxyl radical was discussed by using salicylic acid as probe molecules. The results show that an appropriate amount of Sn dopant can greatly increase the amount of hydroxyl radicals generated by TiO(2) nanoparticles, which are responsible for the obvious increase of photocatalytic activity.     

CdS and CdTeS quantum dot decorated TiO2 nanowires. Synthesis and photoefficiency

An easy process was developed to synthesize TiO(2) nanowires sensitized with CdS and CdTeS quantum dots (QDs) requiring no pretreatment of the TiO(2) nanowires prior to nanoparticle generation. CdS and CdTeS nanoparticles were firstly grown by an in situ colloidal method directly onto the TiO(2) surface, hence not requiring subsequent functionalization of the QDs. The resulting nanostructure assembly and composition was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Raman spectroscopy. Successful decoration of the TiO(2) nanowires by the QDs was observed by TEM, while XPS spectra provided clear evidence for the coexistence of CdS and CdTeS QDs and TiO(2) nanowires. The electronic structure of the TiO(2) nanowires was preserved as indicated by Raman spectroscopy. Preliminary photocurrent measurements showed that inclusion of Te in CdS QDs improved the photocurrent efficiency. Compared to bare TiO(2) nanowires, CdS/TiO(2) nanoassemblies showed an enhancement in photocurrent efficiency of 300% while CdTeS/TiO(2) presented an improvement of 350%. This study indicates that the generation of strongly anchored CdS and CdTeS QDs on a TiO(2) nanowire surface is achievable without introduction of a linker molecule, whose presence is known to decrease the electron injection efficiency.     

Synthesis and photo-degradation application of WO3/TiO2 hollow spheres

A WO(3)/TiO(2) composite, hollow-sphere photocatalyst with average diameter of 320 nm and shell thickness of 50 nm was successfully prepared using a template method. UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra illustrated that the main absorption edges of the WO(3)/TiO(2) hollow spheres were red-shifted compared to the TiO(2) hollow spheres, indicating an extension of light absorption into the visible region of the composite photocatalyst. The WO(3) and TiO(2) phases were confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. BET isotherms revealed that the specific surface area and average pore diameter of the hollow spheres were 40.95 m(2)/g and 19 nm, respectively. Photocatalytic experiments indicate that 78% MB was degraded by WO(3)/TiO(2) hollow spheres under visible light within 80 min. Under the same conditions, only 24% MB can be photodegraded by TiO(2). The photocatalytic mineralization of MB, catalyzed by TiO(2) and WO(3)/TiO(2), proceeded at a significantly higher rate under UV irradiation than that under visible light, and more significant was the increase in the apparent rate constant with the WO(3)/TiO(2) composite semiconductor material which was 3.2- and 3.5-fold higher than with the TiO(2) material under both UV and visible light irradiation. The increased photocatalytic activity of the coupled nanocomposites was attributed to photoelectron/hole separation efficiency and the extension of the wavelength range of photoexcitation.

Photocatalytic, recyclable CdS nanoparticle-carbon nanotube hybrid sponges

Semiconducting nanoparticles with lower bandgap (e.g., CdS) are alternative photocatalysts to TiO2, since they have a potentially wider range light of absorption and improved catalytic efficiency. However, they must be securely anchored on a porous substrate for practical applications. Here, we report a hybrid porous photocatalyst fabricated by grafting 4?C6 nm diameter CdS nanoparticles uniformly throughout the entire macroporous structure of a three-dimensional carbon nanotube (CNT) sponge. The unique feature of our structure is that only the CdS nanoparticles grafted on the outside surface are active in photocatalysis, while other nanoparticles are stored inside the sponge in the fresh state for use when the catalyst is recycled. Our CdS-CNT hybrid sponges show high efficiency in removing organic contaminants from water. Spectroscopic measurements show that the hybrid sponges are multifunctional, simultaneously performing organic molecular adsorption (using the inter-CNT spacing), and photocatalytic decomposition (by the CdS nanoparticles grafted on the surface), both of which contribute to water purification. Furthermore, the surface part of the sponges can be stripped off to expose inner nanoparticles for use when the catalyst is recycled, without performance degradation.      

Thermochemical growth of Mn-doped CdS nanoparticles and study of luminescence evolution

We report a new method of growing Mn-doped CdS (CdS:Mn) nanoparticles in an aqueous solution at boiling temperature. The idea is to use precursors that react only at high temperature, in order to gain crystalline luminescent nanoparticles. CdSO(4), Mn(NO(3))(2) and Na(2)S(2)O(3) were used as the precursors, and thioglycerol was employed as the capping agent and also the reaction catalyst. Na(2)S(2)O(3) is thermally sensitive and it releases S(2-) ions upon heating. The CdS:Mn nanoparticles obtained are about 4?nm in size and show both cubic and hexagonal crystalline phases with a ratio of 35% to 65%. The luminescence of nanoparticles contains a peak at 580?nm, which is related to Mn(2+) ions. Prolonged reaction time results in a decrease of the Mn luminescence peak to about 35% of the maximum value. We discuss the possible causes of the Mn peak reduction and attribute it to preferential dissolution of Mn ions into the solution due to shape reconfiguration of the nanoparticles.     

Photocatalytic and antibacterial properties of a TiO2/nylon-6 electrospun nanocomposite mat containing silver nanoparticles

Silver-impregnated TiO(2)/nylon-6 nanocomposite mats exhibit excellent characteristics as a filter media with good photocatalytic and antibacterial properties and durability for repeated use. Silver nanoparticles (NPs) were successfully embedded in electrospun TiO(2)/nylon-6 composite nanofibers through the photocatalytic reduction of silver nitrate solution under UV-light irradiation. TiO(2) NPs present in nylon-6 solution were able to cause the formation of a high aspect ratio spider-wave-like structure during electrospinning and facilitated the UV photoreduction of AgNO(3) to Ag. TEM images, UV-visible and XRD spectra confirmed that monodisperse Ag NPs (approximately 4 nm in size) were deposited selectively upon the TiO(2) NPs of the prepared nanocomposite mat. The antibacterial property of a TiO(2)/nylon-6 composite mat loaded with Ag NPs was tested against Escherichia coli, and the photoactive property was tested against methylene blue. All of the results showed that TiO(2)/nylon-6 nanocomposite mats loaded with Ag NPs are more effective than composite mats without Ag NPs. The prepared material has potential as an economically friendly photocatalyst and water filter media because it allows the NPs to be reused.
