Abstract

A method for preparing cadmium tantalate nanoparticle photocatalysts is provided. The method includes the following steps: dissolving tantalum pentachloride and cadmium nitrate tetrahydrate in anhydrous alcohol and then dissolving polyethylene glycol in anhydrous alcohol; mixing the solutions under magnetic stirring, and evaporating solvents in a water bath to obtain a transparent sol; placing the transparent sol in an oven, fan-drying to obtain a dry sol, and grinding to obtain a flavescent precursor powder; calcining the precursor powder in a muffle furnace to obtain a gray powder; calcining the gray powder in the muffle furnace; and naturally cooling down to room temperature to obtain white cadmium tantalate nanoparticle photocatalyst. The invention utilizes the cadmium element instead of alkali metal and alkaline earth metal elements. The energy band structure and state density calculation show that the valence band of the photocatalyst is mainly formed by 02p orbital, the conduction band thereof is formed by Ta 5d, 02p and Cd 5s5p hybrid orbits, the band gap is minimized, Ta and Cd orbits are used together as reaction points to enhance the photocatalytic activity.
