Problems solved by technology

with powdered TiO 2 Compared to 1D TiO 2 Nanowire arrays have the advantages of larger specific surface area, shorter electron migration distance, faster electron migration rate, and more reactive active sites, which can be used for photocatalytic reactions and are easy to recycle, but TiO 2 There are still some deficiencies in nanowire arrays: (1) TiO 2 The band gap is wide and can only be excited by ultraviolet light, and cannot effectively use visible light; (2) The electron-hole recombination rate is high, the quantum efficiency is low, and the activity is poor
However, currently reported TiO 2 / g -C 3 N 4 The electrode has problems such as narrow light absorption range (absorption band edge is only about 420nm), high electron-hole recombination rate and poor activity.

Embodiment 1

[0049] This embodiment provides a CN x / TiO 2 Core-shell nanowire array photocatalyst, its preparation method specifically comprises the following steps:

[0050] Step 1: Select a carbon cloth with a size of about 2cm×3cm as the growth substrate of titanium dioxide nanowires. The carbon cloth was ultrasonically cleaned in acetone, distilled water, and absolute ethanol in sequence. Add about 20mL n-hexane, 2 drops of TiCl to the beaker 4 , formulated into a uniform TiCl 4 hexane solution, and then add two pieces of carbon cloth to each beaker, take it out after soaking for 12 hours. After the carbon cloth was taken out, it was placed in a tube furnace. Under the air atmosphere, the heating rate was 3°C / min, from room temperature to 500°C. After a constant temperature of 30 minutes, the temperature was naturally lowered. It can be observed that the surface of the nanowire is covered with a thin layer of TiO 2 Seed layer;

[0051] Step 2: In a 200mL polytetrafluoroethylene...

Embodiment 2

[0055] Prepare a solution with methylene blue as the target pollutant to carry out an evaluation experiment on the photocatalytic degradation activity of the catalyst. The evaluation experiment is carried out in the following manner:

[0056] Will have CN x / TiO 2 The carbon cloth of the core-shell nanowire array was used as a photoanode, and the initial concentration of immersion was 1.5×10 - 5 In a mol / L methylene blue solution, a three-electrode system (PEC) is used to apply a bias voltage of 1.0V to the photoanode by connecting to an electrochemical workstation;

[0057] Before the start of the reaction, the adsorption was carried out under dark conditions, and the reaction was started after the adsorption equilibrium was reached.

[0058] A 300W Xe lamp is used as the light source, and a 420nm cut-off filter is installed on it, and the distance between the light source and the reaction liquid surface is 10cm; during the reaction time of 4 hours, sampling is performed e...

Embodiment 3

[0061] For the CN prepared in Example 1 x / TiO 2 The core-shell nanowire array is used as a photocatalyst for activity evaluation. The specific steps are similar to those in Example 2. The applied bias voltage is 2.0V, and the curve of photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue is obtained, as shown in Figure 5 shown. Depend on Figure 5 The results show that when the applied bias voltage is 2.0V, CN x / TiO 2 The photodegradation rate constant of the core-shell nanowire array is 0.01268min -1 , which is TiO in Comparative Example 1 below 2 1.4 times that of nanowire arrays. It can be seen that the CN provided by this embodiment x / TiO 2 The core-shell nanowire array photocatalyst has high photocatalytic activity, compared with pure TiO 2 Compared with nanowires, the degradation rate is significantly improved.
