[0003] With the development of piezoelectronics, the degradation of organic pollutants under dark conditions has become possible by utilizing the piezoelectric effect of semiconductor piezoelectric materials, reducing the dependence on sunlight. In addition, when a semiconductor piezoelectric material is subjected to mechanical external force, opposite polarization charges will be generated on the surface of the semiconductor piezoelectric material, thereby driving the separation of free carriers and achieving the rapid degradation of organic pollutants. Among many piezoelectric materials, MoS2 stands out due to its simple preparation, non-toxicity, stable physical and chemical properties, and relatively high piezoelectric coefficient. However, the free carrier separation efficiency of pure-phase MoS2 is still not ideal, and the free carriers available for participating in the piezoelectric catalytic reaction are relatively low, making its piezoelectric catalytic efficiency difficult to meet practical applications.

[0028] 4. The present invention combines the hydrothermal method and the ultrasonic electrostatic assembly technology to efficiently synthesize the WO2 / MoS2 heterostructure piezoelectric catalyst, which not only saves time costs, but also the prepared heterostructure catalyst still retains excellent surface contact characteristics, effectively optimizing the transmission path of free carriers, realizing the efficient separation of free carriers inside MoS2, and significantly improving the efficiency of the piezoelectric catalytic reaction.

[0061] Example 1
[0062] Add 733.2 mg of sodium molybdate (purity 99.0%) and 683.0 mg of thioacetamide (purity 99.0%) to 30 mL of deionized water, and stir magnetically at 500 rpm at room temperature for 30 min. Subsequently, pour the solution into a 50 mL polytetrafluoroethylene-lined autoclave, heat to 200 °C, and keep warm for 24 h. After naturally cooling to room temperature, centrifuge the obtained black solid product at 8000 rpm for 2 min, and wash 3 times with deionized water and ethanol respectively. Finally, place the sample in an oven at 80 °C and keep warm for 8 h, and grind to obtain MoS2 powder.
[0063] Add 166.6 mg of sodium tungstate (purity 99.5%) and 122.4 mg of L-cysteine (purity 99.0%) to 30 mL of deionized water, and stir magnetically at 500 rpm at room temperature for 30 min.

After naturally cooling to room temperature, centrifuge the obtained solution at 9000 rpm for 10 min to obtain an aqueous solution of WO2 quantum dots.
[0064] 50 mg of MoS2, 0.5 mL of an aqueous solution of WO2 quantum dots, and 1.5 mL of deionized water were added to a 10 mL glass bottle and sonicated in an ultrasonic cleaner at 40 kHz and 300 W for 20 min to obtain a WO2 / MoS2 heterojunction piezoelectric catalyst (denoted as WO2 / MoS2-1).
[0065] Example 2
[0066] The difference between this example and Example 1 is only that the aqueous solution of WO2 quantum dots is 1.0 mL and the deionized water is 1.0 mL, obtaining WO2 / MoS2-2.
[0067] Example 3
[0068] The difference between this example and Example 1 is only that the aqueous solution of WO2 quantum dots is 1.5 mL and the deionized water is 0.5 mL, obtaining WO2 / MoS2-3, and the rest is the same as in Example 1.
[0069] Performance test
[0070] (1) X-ray diffraction (XRD) tests were performed on MoS2, WO2 / MoS2-1, WO2 / MoS2-2, and WO2 / MoS2-3 of Examples 1 to 3 of the present invention, and the results are as Figure 1 shown.
[0071] For the MoS2 sample, the characteristic peaks at 32.2° and 57.0° correspond to the (100) and (110) crystal planes of the 2H-MoS2 standard card (PDF#37-1492). Compared with the 2H-MoS2 standard card, the (002) peak of the MoS2 sample shifts to a higher angle (from 14.4° to 10.8°), which is attributed to the presence of partial 1T-MoS2 in the MoS2 sample, resulting in lattice distortion. For the WO2 / MoS2-1, WO2 / MoS2-2, and WO2 / MoS2-3 samples, a new characteristic peak appears at 26.3°, which matches the (011) crystal plane of the WO2 standard card (PDF#32-1393), indicating that the WO2 quantum dots are successfully loaded on the surface of MoS2 nanoparticles.
[0072] (2) Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) tests were performed on MoS2 and WO2 / MoS2-1 of Example 1 of the present invention, and the results are as Figure 2 shown.
[0073] As can be seen from Figure 2 (a), the microstructure of the MoS2 sample is composed of stacked nanoparticles with a rough surface. The rough surface morphology is expected to expose more odd-layer few-layer MoS2 nanosheets at the edges, thus showing a stronger piezoelectric response. As can be seen from Figure 2As can be seen from (b), since the WO2 quantum dots are relatively small in size, the microscopic morphology of the MoS2 sample does not change significantly after loading WO2 quantum dots.
[0074] (3) The photocurrent and electrochemical impedance tests were carried out on MoS2 and WO2 / MoS2-2 of Example 2 of the present invention on an electrochemical workstation CHI760E, and the results are as Figure 3 shown.
[0075] Compared with the MoS2 sample, the photocurrent of WO2 / MoS2-2 under illumination conditions is significantly increased ( Figure 3 (a)), and the charge transfer impedance is significantly reduced ( Figure 3 (b)), which indicates that the interfacial electric field of the WO2 / MoS2 heterojunction can act as an internal driving force to drive the separation and transport of free carriers, significantly increasing the concentration of free carriers participating in the catalytic reaction, thereby improving the degradation efficiency of organic pollutants.
[0076] (4) The piezoelectric catalytic degradation tests of MoS2, WO2 / MoS2-1, WO2 / MoS2-2 and WO2 / MoS2-3 samples of Examples 1-3 of the present invention on rhodamine B were carried out under ultrasonic conditions (300 W, 40 kHz). The specific experimental process was as follows: The piezoelectric catalytic performance of the samples was evaluated by degrading a 15 mg / L rhodamine B solution; during the experiment, 10 mg of the sample was dispersed in 50 mL of the rhodamine B solution, and stirred for 30 min under dark conditions to eliminate the influence of dye adsorption; then, the degradation experiment was carried out under ultrasonic conditions. Every 10 min, 4 mL of the sample was taken, the supernatant was retained after high-speed centrifugation, and the absorbance of the supernatant was detected. The results are as Figure 4 shown.
[0077] As can be seen from Figure 4 (a), compared with the original MoS2, the WO2 / MoS2 heterojunction piezoelectric catalyst has excellent piezoelectric catalytic degradation activity; after 60 min of ultrasonic irradiation, the degradation rates of MoS2, WO2 / MoS2-1, WO2 / MoS2-2 and WO2 / MoS2-3 samples are 56.2%, 73.8%, 91.0% and 73.5% respectively; among them, WO2 / MoS2-2 has the most excellent piezoelectric catalytic degradation performance.
[0078] As can be seen from Figure 4 (b), the degradation rates of MoS2, WO2 / MoS2-1, WO2 / MoS2-2 and WO2 / MoS2-3 samples are 0.012 min -1 , 0.021 min -1 , 0.042 min -1 and 0.020 min -1; among them, WO2 / MoS2-2 has the fastest piezoelectric catalytic degradation rate.
[0079] Therefore, by using the WO2 / MoS2 heterojunction piezoelectric catalyst, its preparation method and application described in the present invention, the coupling effect of the polarization electric field generated by the piezoelectric effect and the interfacial electric field of the heterojunction is utilized to improve the separation efficiency of free carriers and promote the degradation of dye pollutants.
[0080] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify or equivalently replace the technical solutions of the present invention, and these modifications or equivalent replacements cannot make the modified technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
