Chemical-bonds Conjugated SnO 2 /AgIO 4 Hybrids for Degradation of High Concentration Rhodamin B under Visible Light Illumination
Journal of Wuhan University of Technology-Mater. Sci. Ed.(2020)
Abstract
SnO 2 /AgIO 4 hybrids were fabricated by an in-situ synthetic method at room temperature. The structure, morphology, light response range, separation efficiency of the electron-hole pairs and elements of the as-synthesized samples were characterized by adopting X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, respectively. The synergistically photocatalytic degradation mechanism of the as-synthesized composites was also proposed. The experimental results reveal that under the visible light irradiation the as-synthesized SnO 2 /AgIO 4 hybrids can enhance the photocatalytic degradation efficiency of rhodamine B compared to pure samples. With increasing the molar ratios of AgIO 4 to SnO 2 , it displays the trend of first increasing and then decreasing. When it is 1:2 in 150 min, the as-prepared hybrids have the highest degradation efficiency of 93.1%, which increases by 6550.0%, 30.5%, and 1505.0% compared to those of pure SnO 2 , AgIO 4 , and TiO 2 (P25), respectively. Moreover, the Sn-O-Ag cross-linking bonds are formed at the interfaces of SnO 2 and AgIO 4 . In addition, superoxide anion radicals and holes play a major role in the process of photodegradation.
