Synthesis of novel magnetically separable Fe3O4/Bi12O17Cl2 photocatalyst with boosted visible-light photocatalytic activity
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Magnetic Fe3O4/Bi12O17Cl2 photocatalyst was prepared by chemical deposition and co-precipitation. The photocatalysts were measured by XRD, XPS, SEM, TEM, DRS, PL, etc. The experimental results indicated that the introduction of magnetic material Fe3O4 did not only make as-prepared Fe3O4/Bi12O17Cl2 nanomaterials easier recovery, but also promoted the effective separation of photoinduced charges. Hence, in the photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B, improved activity could be obtained in comparison to Bi12O17Cl2. Furthermore, high photocatalytic activity could be maintained after four times recycling experiments. Meanwhile, free radical captured experiments revealed that holes and superoxide radicals played a major role. Evidently, this work shows an insight into the fabrication of easily separable and excellent photocatalysts, which was promisingly applied in environmental remediation.
