Natural reed-derived nanostructure SiC/CNOs for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution from water
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract The optimum utilization of natural resources for clean energy production is significant to the sustainable development of society. In this report, SiC nanowires supported on carbon nano onions materials (SiC/CNOs) were simply synthesized through two-step sintering from natural reed as single raw material and used as photocatalyst for hydrogen evolution from water. The hydrogen evolution rate can reach 1101.65 μmol·g−1·h−1 in the presence of Eosin Y (EY) as photosensitizer and triethanolamine (TEOA) as sacrificial agent. Control experiments and characterizations demonstrate that the outstanding photocatalytic activity of SiC/CNOs is attributed to the synergetic effect between SiC nanowires and CNOs.
