Fabrication of high efficiency visible light Z-scheme heterostructure photocatalyst g-C3N4/Fe0(1%)/TiO2 and degradation of rhodamine B and antibiotics
摘要: We have prepared and studied a novel low cost catalyst of g-C3N4/Fe0(1%)/TiO2, using a simple process involving the formation of zero valence iron by chemical reduction. This ternary catalyst g-C3N4/Fe0(1%)/TiO2 was characterized using XRD (X-Ray diffraction), UV–vis spectrum, EDS (Energy Dispersive spectrum) and TEM (transmission electron microscopy), it demonstrated high-visible-light activity in a wide range of pH condition, it can photo-catalytically degraded Rhodamine B (RhB), Tetracycline (TC), and Berberine hydrogen chloride (BH) (~98% in 90 min) under visible light. The high activity arises from the increased harvest of more visible light and the improved separation of photo-excited electrons and holes via Z-scheme and heterojunctions mechanism. Also, the time required to remove 100% RhB, TC, and 96% BH can be shortened from 90 min to 60 min by introducing 3.18 mM Na2SO3 to this photocatalysis system that assisted the generation of reactive oxidizing species and pollutant degradation. The results showed promising application prospect for this developed catalyst and the tested photocatalysis pollutant degradation system.

TiO2/MoS2 heterojunctions-decorated carbon fibers with broad-spectrum response as weaveable photocatalyst/photoelectrode
摘要: The development of efficient and recyclable photocatalysts with wide spectrum response has drawn much attention. Herein, we prepared TiO2/MoS2 heterostructures on carbon fibers (CFs) by a two-step hydrothermal method. CFs/TiO2/MoS2 exhibits a strong and wide absorption spectrum from ultraviolet to near-infrared region (> 1200 nm). Under the irradiation of visible-light, CFs/TiO2/MoS2 could degrade 97.6% Rhodamine B (RhB) after 100 min, 94.2% Acid Orange 7 (AO7) or 93.4% tetracycline hydrochloride (TC) after 60 min, and 88.7% 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) after 180 min. Moreover, CFs/TiO2/MoS2 bundles can be further weaved into a cloth (area: 4 × 4 cm2). CFs/TiO2/MoS2 cloth as a working electrode exhibits significant photocurrent (7.53 × 10?6 A/cm2) and enhanced photoelectrocatalytic efficiency (100% TC) comparing with only photocatalysis (90.7% TC) or electrocatalysis (47% TC). In particular, CFs/TiO2/MoS2 cloth shows excellent stability. Therefore, CFs/TiO2/MoS2 cloth has great potential to be used as flexible and weaveable photocatalyst/photoelectrode for degrading various pollutants.

Photoinduced triboelectric polarity reversal and enhancement of a new metal/semiconductor triboelectric nanogenerator
摘要: We reported a novel metal/semiconductor triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) based on Au and TiO2 as the friction layers. Upon illumination, the current polarity rapidly reverses compared to the dark state. The negative and positive short-circuit current approximately increase by 12 and 2 times, respectively. Particularly, a photocurrent plateau appears due to the formation of metal-semiconductor Schottky contact in the device. By carefully analyzing the charge transfer in dark and under illumination, it is found that the accumulation of a large number of photoelectrons on the surface of TiO2 and the increase of conductivity are the reasons for the reversal current polarity and significant current increase under illumination. Our work provides a new approach for improving TENG output and a new understanding about the effect of surface states on the triboelectric performance especially the polarity of TENG.

EFFECT OF VOLTAGE ON TIO2 NANOTUBES FORMATION IN ETHYLENE GLYCOL SOLUTION
摘要: Anodization of Ti foils in ethylene glycol (EG) containing ammonium fluoride (NH4F), and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was carried out to study the effect of voltage on the formation of TiO2 nanotubes. The crystalline phase of the TiO2 nanotubes without further heat treatment were studied. The TiO2 nanotube arrays were produced by anodization of Ti foil at three different voltage; 10, 40, and 60 V in a bath with electrolytes composed of ethylene glycol (EG), ammonium fluoride (NH4F), and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The H2O2 is a strong oxidizing agent which was used as oxygen provider to increase the oxidation rate for synthesizing highly ordered and smooth TiO2 nanotubes. Anodization at voltage greater than 10 V leads to the formation of tubular structure where higher anodization voltage (~ 60 V) yield to larger tube diameter (~ 180 nm). Crystallinity of the nanotubes is improved as the voltage was increased. The transformation of amorphous to anatase can be obtained for as anodized TiO2 without any heat treatment. The Raman spectra results show the anodization at 40 V and 60 V gives anatase peak in which confirms the crystalline phase. The stabilization of the crystalline phase is due to the oxygen vacancies and ionic mobilities during the anodization at high voltage.

A highly sensitive photocatalytic plastic optic-fiber sensor for selective detection of phenol in aqueous solutions
摘要: We present a highly sensitive photocatalytic plastic optic-fiber (POF) sensor for the selective detection of phenol in aqueous solutions. To obtain high sensitivity and low limit of detection (LOD) of the sensor, part of the POF cladding was removed and replaced by a Canada balsam doped with GeO2 (CBG); a UV-visible-light-driven photocatalytic material, that is a CdS-sensitized Er3+YAlO3/SiO2/TiO2 (EYST) composite, was coated on the CBG film. To realize highly selective detection of phenol in water, a high phenol permselectivity and pH independence polymer membrane was fixed on the CdS-sensitized EYST-CBG-coated POF. Furthermore, a model was developed to show that the phenol concentration can be determined by measuring the change in transmitted light intensity of the POF sensor and the sensitivity of the sensors can be improved by employing the CdS-sensitized EYST film. The results showed that the proposed photocatalytic POF sensor has a high sensitivity of -0.39 (mg·mL-1)-1 and low LOD of 15 μg·L-1 for the selective detection of phenol in aqueous solutions with pH ranging from 2.0 to 14.0.

Polyimide-TiO2 nanocomposites and their corresponding membranes: Synthesis, characterization, and gas separation applications
摘要: In this work at firstly a new class of polyimide/TiO2 (PI/TiO2) composites containing amino acid (Methionine) and benzimidazole fractions in the structure with chemical bonds between the polyimide and TiO2 network has been synthesized by the sol-gel reaction and characterized and then secondly carbon (C) membranes were prepared by carbonization of PI/TiO2 at different temperatures under vacuum and nitrogen flow. Carbonization temperature was critical in the modification of membrane structure. At the same temperature, the carbon membranes fabricated under nitrogen atmosphere had higher gas permeations than those fabricated under vacuum. With the introduction of the TiO2, there was no significant enhancement of the gas separation in the resulting PI/TiO2 composite membranes over the PI membrane, which still suffered a "trade-off" relationship between permeability and selectivity. However, the derived C/PI/TiO2 composite membranes exhibited better gas separation properties. The C/PI/TiO2 15% composite membrane produced the highest permeations of 650.47, 520.56, 187.92 and 115.22 GPU for He, CO2, O2 and N2, respectively. The bionanocomposites were analyzed for antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The results indicated that the synthesized bionanocomposites is effective against all of the studied bacteria, and its effectiveness is higher for Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Photosensitized TiO2 films on polymers – Titania-polymer interactions and visible light induced photoactivity
摘要: Photocatalytic coatings at polymers, showing a visible light induced photoactivity, can be synthesized using a low temperature oxygen plasma treatment of the polymer (PP) followed by deposition of TiO2 nanoparticles and their sensitization with organic ligands. The whole process consists of three major steps: surface activation involving its partial oxidation, immobilization of TiO2 nanoparticles and photosensitization of titania film by impregnation with the solution of organic ligands forming surface Ti(IV) charge transfer complexes. XPS and IR analysis revealed the formation of oxygen-containing groups at the polymer surface upon plasma treatment. These groups participate in the formation of Ti-O-C bonds which ensure a very good adhesion of titania films to polymeric surface. The dip-coating process using an aqueous colloidal solution of TiO2 nanoparticles allows to synthesize a compact coating with a thickness of 100-300 nm. Coordination of catechol-like ligands to surface Ti(IV) centers results in formation of colored charge transfer complexes responsible for absorption of visible light and an effective photoinduced charge separation. Photogenerated electrons and holes can take part in surface redox reactions responsible for degradation of pollutants. Tests with various organic ligands (catechol, 2,3-naphthalenediol, pyrogallol and rutin) revealed, that the titanium dioxide coating modified with catechol was the most photoactive one when visible light irradiation was applied. Presented photocatalytic coatings can be effectively used as self-sterilizing surfaces activated by visible light.

The superior photocatalytic activity of Nb doped TiO2/g-C3N4 direct Z-scheme system for efficient conversion of CO2 into valuable fuels
摘要: In this study, we firstly aimed to use Nb as dopant to dope into the TiO2 lattice in order to narrow band gap energy or enhance photocatalytic activity of the Nb-TiO2. Then, the prepared Nb-TiO2 was combined with g-C3N4 to establish Nb-TiO2/g-C3N4 direct Z-scheme system for superior reduction of CO2 into valuable fuels even under visible light. The obtained results indicated that the band gap energy of the Nb-TiO2 (2.91 eV) was lower than that of the TiO2 (3.2 eV). In the successfully established Nb-TiO2/g-C3N4 direct Z-scheme system, the photo-excited e- in the CB of the Nb-TiO2 combined with the photo-excited h+ in the VB of the g-C3N4 preserving the existence of e- in the CB of the g-C3N4 and h+ in the VB of Nb-TiO2, and thereby, the system produced numerous amount of available e-/h+ pairs for the reduction of CO2 into various valuable fuels. In addition, the produced e- of the Nb-TiO2/g-C3N4 existing in the CB of the g-C3N4, which the potential energy is approximately - 1.2 V, would be strong enough for the reduction of CO2 to generate not only CH4 and CO but also HCOOH. Among established Nb-TiO2/g-C3N4 materials, the 50Nb-TiO2/50g-C3N4 material was the best material for the CO2 reduction.

Fabrication and enhanced photocatalytic property of TiO2-ZnO composite photocatalysts
摘要: TiO2 nanotube and TiO2-ZnO composite photocatalysts were fabricated by simple hydrothermal method, and the photocatalytic property of as-prepared samples were analyzed by the photo degradation of rhodamine B water solutions under visible light irradiation. The prepared TiO2-ZnO composite photocatalysts exhibited excellent property in photo degradation of rhodamine B water solution, which is better than that of P25. The enhancement photocatalytic property of target photocatalysts could be attributed to the reduced band gap energy, the enhanced-surface physic-chemical properties, the separation of photo induced electron-hole pairs and the decreased recombination rate. In addition, TiO2-ZnO composite photocatalysts showed good stability for rhodamine B photo degradation under visible light.
