Abstract

The invention discloses a Cu-doped ZnO / graphene composite photocatalyst and a preparation method thereof. The method comprises the following steps: mixing graphite oxide and a surfactant CTAB (cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide) in distilled water and carrying out ultrasonic treatment to obtain a first precursor reactant; dissolving zinc acetate and cupric acetate in the distilled water and carrying out ultrasonic treatment to obtain a second precursor reactant; dissolving hexamethylenetetramine and sodium citrate in the distilled water and carrying out ultrasonic treatment to obtain a third precursor reactant; after mixing the first precursor reactant and the second precursor reactant, carrying out ultrasonic treatment, then mixing the obtained product and the third precursor reactant, controlling reaction temperature in the range of 70 DEG C to 120 DEG C and performing reaction; sealing, naturally cooling, standing and carrying out extraction filtration to obtain filter residues; and after drying the filter residues, carrying out annealing treatment. According to the invention, addition of graphene reduces electron-hole compounding possibility; and meanwhile, introduction of Cu ions can be used as an ion trap to temporarily capture a charge carrier and inhibit electron-hole compounding so as to obviously improve photocatalytic efficiency of the product.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a graphene composite photocatalyst in the technical field of novel photocatalysts, in particular to a method for preparing a Cu-doped ZnO (ZnO:Cu) / graphene composite photocatalyst. Background technique [0002] Photocatalytic degradation of water and air pollutants using oxide semiconductors is a hotspot in catalyst research. with TiO 2 Oxide semiconductors represented by ZnO and ZnO can effectively degrade and even mineralize toxic organic pollutants that are refractory to biodegradation under normal temperature and pressure conditions, and they are cheap, efficient, and do not produce secondary pollutants, which is the most widely studied at present. Photocatalyst TiO 2 In contrast, ZnO is more responsive to light and exhibits higher quantum yields in the degradation of certain toxic organic pollutants. However, due to the limitation of the band gap of ZnO itself, the electron-hole pairs generated by light irradiation are ...
