Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of catalytic materials and pollution control technology, in particular to a method for synthesizing lead-free piezoelectric catalytic materials based on hydrothermal technology and products. BACKGROUND
[0002] Piezoelectric catalytic technology has shown great potential in environmental remediation (such as degradation of organic pollutants), clean energy (such as water splitting for hydrogen production), and biomedical fields. However, current high-performance piezoelectric material systems are heavily dependent on lead-containing (such as lead zirconate titanate PZT) materials, which are heavy metals with strong neurotoxicity. There is a risk of lead leakage and diffusion in the whole life cycle of material preparation, use and disposal, which poses a long-term threat to the ecosystem and public health. Therefore, it is urgent to develop high-performance lead-free piezoelectric catalytic materials to meet the requirements of green chemistry and broaden the application fields of piezoelectric catalytic technology.
[0003] Organic pollutants, especially toxic and refractory organic matter, have persistence, bioaccumulation and toxicity in water environment. If they are not effectively degraded or mineralized by physical, chemical or biological methods, they will pose a long-term threat to the aquatic ecosystem and may be enriched through the food chain, ultimately endangering human health. Odorants in water bodies are mainly organic pollutants, and typical odorants include geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB), etc. Such substances show strong resistance to conventional water treatment processes, therefore, developing efficient degradation technology is the key to addressing the dual challenges of water environmental safety and sensory quality of drinking water.
[0004] The Chinese patent document with publication number CN120286009A discloses a high-performance lead-free piezoelectric catalytic material and its preparation method and application. The preparation method of the lead-free piezoelectric catalytic material includes the following steps: weighing K2CO3, Na2CO3, Nb2O5, Fe2O3, Co2O3, mixing and then performing ultrasonic dispersion treatment, followed by powder grinding and pre-sintering treatment to obtain a precursor powder; the precursor powder is ground again, followed by tabletting to obtain a green body; the green body is subjected to sintering treatment and crushing treatment in sequence to obtain a ceramic powder; the ceramic powder is subjected to ultrasonic treatment in pure water, followed by drying treatment to obtain a lead-free piezoelectric catalytic material. The lead-free piezoelectric catalytic material has a very obvious effect on piezoelectric catalytic degradation of rhodamine B, but the preparation condition temperature requirement is relatively harsh and the energy consumption is high.
[0005] The Chinese patent document with the publication number CN120815525A discloses a preparation method and application of a composite piezoelectric catalytic material NaNbO3@BiFeO3 for rapidly degrading antibiotics. NaNbO3 is a flaky grain with
[001] crystallographic orientation prepared by a two-step molten salt method, and BiFeO3 is a micro-nano particle prepared by a coprecipitation method. After the composite micro-nano BiFeO3 powder and the
[001] -oriented NaNbO3 flaky grain form a heterojunction, the composite piezoelectric catalytic material exhibits rapid and efficient piezoelectric photocatalytic properties. However, the application also has problems of high temperature requirement and high energy consumption.
[0006] Therefore, it is urgent to develop a new piezoelectric catalytic material with high efficient adsorption-catalysis dual functions, low cost and low energy consumption, so as to realize deep catalytic degradation of odor pollutants. SUMMARY

[0015] Preferably, in step (2), the amount of the soluble bismuth salt added is equal to the mass of the calcined product in the ultrasonic treatment system, so that the concentration of bismuth ions is about 20% of the molar concentration of zinc oxide.
[0016] Preferably, in step (2), the hydrothermal reaction is carried out after the solution appears milky white after stirring and mixing.
[0017] The application also provides a lead-free piezoelectric catalytic material synthesized by the method for synthesizing a lead-free piezoelectric catalytic material based on a hydrothermal technology.

[0028] Example 1 Take 150 mL ultrapure water to add 66.9 g zinc nitrate hexahydrate, magnetic stirring 420 rpm, 10 min, to obtain a soluble zinc salt solution; take 750 mL ultrapure water to add 108 g ammonium carbonate, magnetic stirring 600 rpm, 10 min, to obtain an ammonium carbonate solution; about 150 mL of ammonium carbonate solution is added to the zinc nitrate solution, so that the ammonium carbonate is slightly excessive to the zinc nitrate, magnetic stirring 420 rpm, 30 min, and then the resulting mixed solution is added to a 500 mL hydrothermal reactor, hydrothermal reaction at 180℃ for 24 h, cooled to 25℃, and then taken out and washed with water, washed twice with 200 mL of ultrapure water, and washed twice with 100 mL of anhydrous ethanol. After washing, vacuum drying at 60℃ for 12 h, and then calcined at 400℃ in a muffle furnace under air atmosphere for 1 h to obtain a calcined product of two-dimensional sheet-shaped zinc oxide powder.

For dye organic pollutants represented by rhodamine B, more than 80% removal efficiency can be achieved within 30 minutes, and more than 95% removal efficiency can be achieved within 40 minutes. The effect is better after polarization by a polarization instrument (6-8 kV polarization for 1 h at room temperature).
[0032] Example 2 The calcined product prepared in Example 1 was added to 300 mL of ultrapure water, and ultrasonic treatment was performed at 25 kHz for 1 h. Bismuth nitrate pentahydrate with the same mass as the calcined product was added to the bottle after ultrasonic treatment, and magnetic stirring was performed at 420 rpm for 30 min until the solution appeared as a milky white liquid. The mixed solution was added to a 500 mL hydrothermal reaction kettle, and hydrothermal treatment was performed at 160℃ for 12 h. After cooling to 25℃, the product was taken out and washed with water. The product was washed twice with 200 mL of ultrapure water and twice with 100 mL of anhydrous ethanol. After washing, the product was dried in a vacuum drying oven at 60℃ for 12 h. The lead-free piezoelectric catalytic material was obtained after drying.

About 150 mL of the ammonium carbonate solution was added to the zinc nitrate solution, and the ammonium carbonate was slightly excessive to the zinc nitrate. Magnetic stirring was performed at 420 rpm for 30 min, and then the mixed solution was added to a 500 mL hydrothermal reaction kettle. Hydrothermal reaction was performed at 180℃ for 25 h. After cooling to 25℃, the product was taken out and washed with water. The product was washed twice with 200 mL of ultrapure water and twice with 100 mL of anhydrous ethanol. After washing, the product was dried in a vacuum drying oven at 60℃ for 12 h. The calcined product, two-dimensional sheet-shaped zinc oxide powder, was obtained after calcination in a muffle furnace at 400℃ in an air atmosphere for 1 h.
[0034] The calcined product was added to 300 mL of ultrapure water, and ultrasonic treatment was performed at 25 kHz for 1 h. Bismuth nitrate pentahydrate with the same mass as the calcined product was added to the bottle after ultrasonic treatment, and magnetic stirring was performed at 420 rpm for 30 min until the solution appeared as a milky white liquid. The mixed solution was added to a 500 mL hydrothermal reaction kettle, and hydrothermal treatment was performed at 180℃ for 10 h. After cooling to 25℃, the product was taken out and washed with water. The product was washed twice with 200 mL of ultrapure water and twice with 100 mL of anhydrous ethanol. After washing, the product was dried in a vacuum drying oven at 60℃ for 12 h. The lead-free piezoelectric catalytic material was obtained without calcination.
[0035] Comparative Example 1 The calcined product prepared in Example 1 was added to 300 mL of ultrapure water, and ultrasonic treatment was performed at 25 kHz for 1 h. Bismuth nitrate pentahydrate with the same mass as the calcined product was added to the bottle after ultrasonic treatment, and magnetic stirring was performed at 420 rpm for 30 min to mix the solution uniformly until the solution appeared as a milky white liquid. The mixed solution was added to a 500 mL hydrothermal reactor, and hydrothermal treatment was performed at 140°C for 5 h. After cooling to 25°C, the product was taken out and washed with water. The product was washed twice with 200 mL of ultrapure water and twice with 100 mL of anhydrous ethanol. After washing, the product was dried in a vacuum drying oven at 60°C for 12 h. After drying, the catalytic material was obtained.
[0036] The experimental results show that, after reducing the hydrothermal time and the hydrothermal temperature, especially reducing the hydrothermal time, the obtained catalytic material does not have the lattice peak of Bi2O2(OH)NO3, and the removal effect of rhodamine B is poor.
