Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of air purification materials, in particular to a porous ceramic core loaded with a nano composite catalyst and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization and the prevalence of interior decoration materials, harmful gas pollution such as formaldehyde, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and ammonia has become a major environmental threat to human health. Traditional air purifiers primarily use HEPA filters and activated carbon filters. They draw in air through a built-in fan, filter it, and release clean air. Some models also feature a negative ion generator to enhance purification. However, these systems suffer from limited filtration efficiency, the need for frequent filter replacement, and incomplete removal of harmful gases. Photocatalytic technology, an emerging solution, utilizes photogenerated charge carriers from semiconductor materials (such as TiO2) to decompose pollutants. However, due to material limitations, practical applications still face numerous challenges. For example, conventional TiO2 absorbs only ultraviolet light (which accounts for 4% of the solar spectrum) and has a poor response to visible light, resulting in low energy utilization. High carrier recombination rates reduce catalytic efficiency. Powdered catalysts are prone to agglomeration, and lack efficient carriers for pollutant pre-concentration, resulting in insufficient adsorption-catalytic synergy.

[0003] Early patents (such as CN02112266.0) used a gel-sol method to create nanoporous silica gel as a carrier, then employed a slurry impregnation process to immobilize the nanoparticles. While this improved dispersibility, the silica gel suffered from low mechanical strength, cracking easily upon contact with water, and a monotonous pore size distribution, making it difficult to adapt to varying pollutant molecular sizes. Porous ceramic materials, due to their unique porous structure, possess a large specific surface area and excellent adsorption properties, providing a favorable environment for the adsorption and catalytic decomposition of harmful gases. For example, Jiangsu Wande Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd.'s patent (CN119345991A) optimizes ceramic membrane preparation through an eccentric mixing system, but lacks integrated photocatalytic functionality and still relies on physical adsorption. Loading nanoparticles such as Ag and ZnO can enhance light absorption, but this is costly and suffers from poor stability.

[0004] In recent years, researchers have also improved air purification performance through process and structural design refinements. For example, a two-step sintering method (anoxic-oxidative sintering) can be used to control ceramic porosity, but this does not address the issue of catalyst uniformity. Modification with precious metal nanoparticles of silver or gold can extend the photoresponse to the visible light region, but traditional impregnation methods can easily lead to particle agglomeration and reduce the density of active sites. Heterojunction designs can increase specific surface area and catalytic efficiency, but the synthesis process is complex and difficult to integrate with ceramic substrates.

[0005] In summary, existing technologies have failed to effectively integrate multi-stage adsorption carriers, wide-spectrum response catalysts and efficient carrier separation mechanisms, resulting in widespread problems such as single function and low purification efficiency in air purification equipment. Summary of the Invention

The heterojunction formed between g-C3N4, TiO2, and Ag3PO4 effectively promotes the separation and migration of photogenerated carriers, significantly reducing the carrier recombination rate and improving photocatalytic activity. Under visible light irradiation, the degradation rate of pollutants such as formaldehyde and benzene in the air is high.

It exhibits a hierarchical pore structure with a porosity of ≥60%, a pore size distribution of 0.5-5μm, and a specific surface area of ​​≥300m² / g. This hierarchical pore structure provides abundant adsorption sites and a large surface area, enabling rapid adsorption of airborne pollutants, enhancing their accumulation capacity and providing ample reactants for subsequent photocatalytic degradation reactions. This achieves a synergistic effect of adsorption and catalysis, addressing the lack of adsorption-catalytic synergy in existing air purification materials.

[0052] Synergistic Effect: The nanocomposite catalyst layer is loaded onto the surface and pores of the porous ceramic substrate, tightly integrating the photocatalyst and the porous ceramic matrix, leveraging their respective strengths. Furthermore, the nanosilver particles in the surface functionalization layer exhibit excellent antibacterial properties, inhibiting the growth of microorganisms that may occur during the photocatalytic process, further enhancing air purification effectiveness. The synergistic effect of these multiple components enables the porous ceramic core to exhibit superior overall performance in the field of air purification.

[0053] Excellent stability and reproducibility: The porous ceramic matrix, prepared through a rational formulation and sintering process, possesses high mechanical strength and chemical stability, maintaining structural integrity during long-term use and providing stable support for the nanocomposite catalyst. Furthermore, the porous ceramic core loaded with the nanocomposite catalyst maintains good photocatalytic activity and adsorption properties after repeated use, making it reusable, reducing operational costs and promising practical application prospects.

[0054] Rational preparation process: The preparation method of the present invention includes the steps of preparing a porous ceramic substrate, loading a nanocomposite catalyst layer, and modifying a surface functional layer.
