Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of concrete, and in particular relates to a piezoelectric enhanced photocatalytic coating based on BaTiO3 / BiOCl nanocomposite material, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Applying photocatalysts to cement-based materials can give them the effects of pollutant degradation and surface self-cleaning, reduce the corrosion rate of buildings with cement-based materials as the main material, extend service life and improve durability. Since the first report that TiO2 can degrade pollutants under ultraviolet light, there have been numerous studies on photocatalytic cement-based materials. At present, the commonly used preparation methods for photocatalytic cement-based materials are direct internal mixing method, aggregate loading method and surface coating method. The amount of photocatalyst used in the direct internal mixing method is large, and the opacity of the cement matrix leads to waste of photocatalyst and low photocatalytic efficiency. The aggregate loading method is complicated and not easy to mass produce, and the compatibility of the photocatalyst with the cement matrix needs to be considered. The surface coating method can not only reduce the amount of photocatalyst and improve the photocatalytic efficiency, but more importantly, its preparation process is simple and easy. In addition, the surface coating method often uses resins as the dispersion medium, which can effectively improve the surface hydrophobicity and further enhance its self-cleaning performance. Therefore, the surface coating method can give the cement-based material a surface cleaning and purification effect and enhance its corrosion resistance, becoming a research hotspot in the current field of building materials. Efficient conversion of solar energy through photocatalytic technology has great potential for alleviating the current energy crisis and increasingly serious environmental pollution. However, unsatisfactory conversion efficiency still hinders its practical application. Summary of the invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the problems existing in the prior art and provide a piezoelectric enhanced photocatalytic coating based on BaTiO3 / BiOCl nanocomposite material.

After drying the obtained precipitate, the BaTiO3 / BiOCl nanocomposite material can be obtained.
[0011] Step 3: Add the obtained BaTiO3 / BiOCl nanocomposite material to anhydrous ethanol, ultrasonically disperse it for 20 to 40 minutes, then add polydimethylsiloxane thereto, and ultrasonically disperse it for another 20 to 40 minutes, then stir until the anhydrous ethanol is completely evaporated, then add the curing agent and continue stirring until the rotor stops rotating automatically due to the increase in viscosity of the stirring system, and the coating can be obtained, and then the obtained coating is applied to the surface of the substrate material to form a piezoelectric enhanced photocatalytic coating.

[0074] 2. Catalytic performance test:
[0075] A xenon lamp was used as the simulated light source, an ultrasonic cleaner provided mechanical vibration, and methylene blue MB (10 mg / L) was selected as the target pollutant for degradation.
[0076] For nanomaterial powder samples: weigh 0.05 g of powder sample and put it into 50 mL of 10 mg / L methylene blue solution. Take out 10 mL of the sample every 20 minutes, centrifuge and take the supernatant, and measure the absorbance at a wavelength of 664 nm.

[0078] The degradation efficiency η is calculated using the following formula:
[0079] η=[(c0-c t ) / c0]×100%
[0080] Where C0 represents the initial absorbance, C t Represents the absorbance at a certain time.
[0081] Analyze the performance characterization results in combination with the attached figures:
[0082] Figure 1 The X-ray powder diffraction patterns of BaTiO3 / BiOCl nanocomposite materials and BaTiO3 and BiOCl monomer nanomaterials are shown in Figure 1. The diffraction peaks of BaTiO3 and BiOCl are both sharp, and no other impurity peaks appear, which correspond to BaTiO3 (PDF#05-0626) and BiOCl (PDF#06-0249), respectively, indicating that the method of the present invention can be used to prepare BaTiO3 and BiOCl with good crystallinity. All peaks of the BaTiO3 / BiOCl nanocomposite materials are sharp, with narrow half-peak widths, and no other impurity peaks appear, indicating that the samples have high purity and good crystallinity. Obvious diffraction peaks appear at 12.0°, 24.1°, 25.9°, 32.5°, etc., corresponding to the characteristic diffraction peaks of BiOCl (PDF#06-0249); obvious diffraction peaks appear at 20.2°, 31.5°, 38.9°, 56.2°, etc., corresponding to the characteristic diffraction peaks of BaTiO3 (PDF#05-0626), confirming that the samples contain BaTiO3 and BiOCl with good crystallinity.
[0083] Figure 2A and Figure 2B The UV diffuse reflectance and band structure diagrams of BaTiO3 / BiOCl nanocomposites and BaTiO3 and BiOCl monomer nanomaterials are shown respectively. The maximum absorption wavelengths of BaTiO3 / BiOCl nanocomposites with composite ratios of 1:2, 1:4, and 1:6 are 407nm, 401nm, and 395nm, respectively, which are better than the maximum absorption wavelength of pure BiOCl (379nm), but smaller than the maximum absorption wavelength of pure BaTiO3 (414nm). The band gap calculated using the Tauc plot method shows that the band gaps of pure BaTiO3 and BiOCl are 2.86eV and 3.23eV, and the band gaps of BaTiO3 / BiOCl nanocomposites with composite ratios of 1:2, 1:4, and 1:6 are 2.90eV, 2.93eV, and 2.97eV, respectively. Compared with pure BiOCl, the band gap of BaTiO3 / BiOCl nanocomposites is significantly narrowed. This is because BiOCl and BaTiO3 have matching band positions, which in turn promotes the separation of electrons and holes.
[0084] Figure 3A and Figure 3BThe photocatalytic degradation effect diagram and piezoelectric photocatalytic degradation effect diagram of BaTiO3 / BiOCl nanocomposites and BaTiO3 and BiOCl monomer nanomaterials on MB solution are shown respectively. Due to the narrow band gap of BaTiO3, its photocatalytic degradation efficiency (35.2%) is higher than that of BiOCl (25.9%). The photocatalytic degradation efficiency of methylene blue of BaTiO3 / BiOCl nanocomposites with different composite ratios is 60.2%, 57.1% and 51.2%, respectively, which is significantly improved compared with monomers BaTiO3 and BiOCl; among them, when the BaTiO3 / BiOCl composite ratio is 1:2, the sample has the best photocatalytic degradation effect on MB, followed by 1:4, and 1:6 has the worst effect. When light and ultrasonic vibration are applied simultaneously, the piezoelectric photocatalytic degradation efficiencies of pure BaTiO3 and BiOCl are 86.7% and 65.0%, respectively, which are 2.46 times and 2.51 times higher than the degradation efficiencies under light alone, fully demonstrating that the piezoelectrically enhanced photocatalytic degradation effect of BaTiO3 is more significant; the piezoelectrically enhanced photocatalytic degradation efficiencies of BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:2, BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:4, and BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:6 are 94.0%, 81.9%, and 68.1%, respectively, which are 1.45, 1.26, and 1.05 times higher than those of BiOCl monomer materials, respectively, indicating that the composite of the two can effectively improve their piezoelectrically enhanced photocatalytic degradation performance. In addition, compared with the degradation efficiency under light irradiation alone, the piezoelectrically enhanced photocatalytic degradation efficiency of BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:2, BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:4, and BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:6 were also improved by 1.56, 1.43, and 1.33 times, indicating the effectiveness of the piezoelectrically enhanced photocatalytic performance caused by ultrasonic vibration.
[0085] Figure 4A and 4BThey are the ultra-depth-of-field surface images and 3D renderings of the piezoelectrically enhanced photocatalytic coating based on BaTiO3 monomer nanomaterials, the coating based on BiOCl monomer nanomaterials, and the nanocomposite materials based on BaTiO3 and BiCl3 with molar ratios of 1:2, 1:4, and 1:6, respectively. The particles in the coating made by dispersing BaTiO3 in PDMS are of different sizes, and the particles agglomerate together. At the same time, the height of the large particles in the 3D image is relatively high; BiOCl is relatively uniformly dispersed in the matrix, and the particle size is slightly smaller than that of BaTiO3, and the distribution of nanomaterials is denser than that of BaTiO3, but there are no bubbles and agglomerations, and the height difference is relatively small; in the cement-based material coating based on BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:6, the particles of nanomaterials are getting smaller and smaller, and there is no agglomeration phenomenon. It is observed that the number of large particles decreases, indicating that the reduction of barium titanate makes the composite material particles smaller, indicating that the surface of the coating is smoother; BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:2 and BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:4, there is no agglomeration of particles, and the distribution density of nanomaterials is smaller than that of BiOCl, and the particle size of BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:2 is the largest in the composite material. It can be seen that with the increase of BiOCl dosage, the dispersion between materials can be changed, and its flatness will also be improved.
[0086] Figure 5A , 5BFigures 5 and 5C are the piezoelectric enhanced photocatalytic coatings based on BaTiO3 / BiOCl nanocomposites, coatings based on BaTiO3 monomer nanomaterials, and coatings based on BiOCl monomer nanomaterials for the piezoelectric photocatalytic degradation of MB solution. Due to the narrow band gap of BaTiO3, its photocatalytic degradation efficiency (34.9%) is higher than that of BiOCl (30.3%); the photocatalytic degradation efficiency of methylene blue of BaTiO3 / BiOCl with different composite ratios is 50.1%, 38.8%, and 35.1%, respectively, which is significantly improved compared with monomer BaTiO3 and BiOCl; among them, when the composite ratio is 1:2, the sample has the best photocatalytic degradation effect on MB, followed by 1:4, and the worst effect is 1:6, which is consistent with the effect of the powder. When light and ultrasonic vibration were applied simultaneously, the piezoelectric photocatalytic degradation efficiencies of pure BaTiO3 and BiOCl were 73.3% and 56.8%, respectively, which were 2.10 times and 1.87 times higher than those under light alone, fully demonstrating that the piezoelectric enhanced photocatalytic degradation effect of BaTiO3 was more significant; the degradation efficiencies of BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:2, BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:4, and BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:6 were 98.4%, 84.9%, and 44.9%, respectively, which were 1.73 and 1.87 times higher than those of BiOCl monomer materials. 49 and 0.79 times, the effect of BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:6 became worse, indicating that with the decrease of BaTiO3 dosage, the degradation efficiency will slow down, but the appropriate dosage of the two can effectively improve their piezoelectric enhanced photocatalytic degradation performance; in addition, compared with the degradation efficiency of light alone, the piezoelectric enhanced photocatalytic degradation efficiency of BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:2, BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:4, and BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:6 was also improved by 1.96, 2.19, and 1.28 times, indicating the effectiveness of the piezoelectric enhanced photocatalytic performance caused by ultrasonic vibration. Figure 5C This is the cyclic stability test result of the cement-based material coating based on BaTiO3 / BiOCl-1:2. As can be seen from the figure, after the coating has been degraded for 5 cycles, its stability still reaches 90%, which fully proves that the coating has good stability.
[0087] Fig. 6A and 6BThe surface wetting performance diagrams of the piezoelectric enhanced photocatalytic coating before and after the degradation of MB solution are respectively based on BaTiO3 monomer nanomaterial coating, BiOCl monomer nanomaterial coating and nanocomposite materials with a molar ratio of BaTiO3 to BiCl3 of 1:2, 1:4 and 1:6. The PDMS coating without nanomaterials shows a certain hydrophobicity, and its contact angle is 101°. When the nanomaterials are dispersed in PDMS, the contact angle of the coating is improved. This is because the addition of nanomaterials forms a certain micro-nano structure on the surface of the coating, resulting in a relative increase in its roughness, thereby improving its hydrophobicity. In order to explore whether its contact angle can stably maintain hydrophobicity, the contact angle of the coating is improved after a piezoelectric photocatalytic degradation experiment. This is mainly because under ultrasonic drive, the nanomaterials inside the coating are gradually squeezed and closer to its surface, which increases the contact area between the internal nanomaterials and the outside world, makes its micro-nano structure more prominent, and further increases the surface roughness, thereby improving its hydrophobicity.
