Indium sulfide mesoporous hollow microsphere photocatalyst and preparation method and use thereof

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of nanometer material synthesis, and a carbon-quantum-dot-modified indium-sulfide (beta-In2S3) mesoporous hollow microsphere photocatalyst is synthesized in one step by utilizing a simple rapid hydrothermal method. The method comprises: dissolving indium chloride and L-cysteine in distilled water, and stirring to obtain a solution D; adding carbon quantum dot into the solution D, and stirring to obtain a solution E; transferring the solution E to a reaction kettle with a teflon inner liner, putting in a baking oven, and reacting at 150 DEG C for 24 h; and naturally cooling to room temperature, centrifuging to obtain a dark-red solid, washing and drying in vacuum, so as to obtain a sample. The indium-sulfide mesoporous hollow microsphere photocatalyst is applicable to degrade methyl orange dye under visible light.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nanomaterial synthesis, and uses a simple and rapid hydrothermal method to synthesize carbon quantum dot-modified indium sulfide (β-Indium sulfide) in one step. 2 S 3 ) mesoporous hollow microsphere photocatalyst, which can be used to degrade methyl orange dye under visible light. Background technique [0002] In recent decades, modern industry has developed rapidly, so the energy crisis and environmental pollution faced by the world are very severe; and photocatalytic technology has the characteristics of high efficiency and environmental friendliness, so it provides a rational use of energy and environmental pollution control for environmental protection. ideal method. [0003] Indium sulfide is a photocatalyst with visible light activity. There are mainly three crystal systems α-In 2 S 3 , β-In 2 S 3 and γ-In 2 S 3 ; Among them, β-In 2 S 3 and the other two structures of In 2 S 3 Compared w...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] But pure β-In 2 S 3 It also has serious defects: electron-hole recombination is rapid. In the process of photocatalytic degradation, if a large number of electron-hole recombination, O 2 - The output will be greatly reduced, and the photocatalytic degradation efficiency of the catalyst will be greatly affected; in order to solve this shortcoming, people have also done a lot of work, such as the β-In 2 S 3 with C 3 N 4 、 Bi 2 S 3 、InVO 4 , RGO and other materials to form a heterojunction or adopt methods such as Au, Ag noble metal loading to improve its photocatalytic activity, but these methods have defects such as expensive material synthesis and complicated synthesis methods; the present invention adopts a simple synthesis and cheap material , a new type of carbon material with stable performance, carbon quantum dots (CQDs) modified β-In 2 S 3 , thereby improving its photocatalytic activity and chemical stability

[0006] So far, no one has used the hydrothermal method to synthesize carbon quantum dot-modified hollow microsphere nanomaterials.
