Embodiment 1

[0023] a. Under ice bath conditions, prepare 100ml of NaOH aqueous solution with a concentration of 0.05mol / L and 50ml of CdCl with a concentration of 0.05mol / L 2 Solution, CdCl at 0°C under vigorous stirring 2 Solution (50ml, 0.05mol / L) was added to NaOH solution (100ml, 0.05mol / L) at 0°C to form white Cd(OH) 2 Turbid solution, continue to stir, then add pure ammonia water drop by drop until the solution becomes clear, continue to stir for 3 minutes, then add 100ml of thiourea solution with a concentration of 0.1-1mol / L and stir for 2 minutes to obtain a mixed solution;

[0024] b. Immerse the titanium dioxide nanotube array film into the mixed solution obtained in step a, then seal it, place it in a water bath at 60°C for 1 hour, take out the sample and rinse the sediment on the surface with deionized water, and then dry it in a nitrogen atmosphere Reserved, the sample is recorded as TNA-CdS1h.

Embodiment 2

[0028] Referring to Example 1, the difference is that in step b, the titanium dioxide nanotube array film is immersed in the solution obtained in step a, sealed, and then placed in a 60°C water bath for 2h, and finally the photocatalytic activity is investigated. The degradation rate of methyl orange is 90%.

Embodiment 3

[0030] Referring to Example 1, the difference is that in step b, the titanium dioxide nanotube array film is immersed in the solution obtained in step a, sealed, and then placed in a water bath at 60°C for 3 hours. formation of flocculent precipitates. Finally, the photocatalytic activity was examined, and the degradation rate of methyl orange was 60%.

[0031] Such as figure 1 Shown, TiO 2 Only have stronger absorption in ultraviolet region, and its absorption wavelength is about 370nm, and the CdS and TiO of embodiment 1 and embodiment 2 2 The absorption wavelength of the composite semiconductor is about 555nm, and the absorption wavelength of the sample is red-shifted by about 175nm. It can not only absorb ultraviolet light, but also absorb visible light, which effectively expands the range of light absorption, and the photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants in the composite material can be controlled by Visible light excitation.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a cadmium sulfide-sensitized titanium dioxide nanotube composite semiconductor photocatalyst. By adopting the method, a layer of dense cadmium sulfide film is grown on a titanium dioxide nanotube array film by using a chemical bath deposition method. The method specifically comprises the following steps: firstly forming a Cd(OH)2 (cadmium hydroxide) dirty solution; then dripping pure ammonium hydroxide gradually until the solution becomes clear; performing reaction on the solution under stirring by adding a thiourea solution so as to obtain a mixed solution; dipping the titanium dioxide nanotube array film in the mixed solution; sealing and standing the solution in a water bath of 60 DEG C for 1 to 4 hours; taking a sample from the solution and washing the surface of the sample with deionized water; drying the sample. The titanium dioxide nanotube is directly sensitized by cadmium sulfide, so that the method is simple to operate and low in cost, thereby providing the foundation for a photocatalysis technology to enter a practical phase. The obtained photocatalyst can be used for inhibiting photoproduction electron-hole from being recombined, thereby improving the quantum efficiency of photocatalytic reaction. The obtained photocatalyst has the high photocatalysis performance to visible light, thereby improving the utilization rate of solar energy.
