[0071] Example 1
[0072] (1) Use deionized water to ultrasonically clean 2cm×2cm carbon fiber 3 times, add 0.1mol / L hydrochloric acid solution at room temperature to completely soak the carbon fiber for 7h, then filter, wash with deionized water until pH value is 7, and then dry the cleaned carbon fiber at 80℃ for 3h to obtain pretreated carbon fiber.
[0073] (2) Stir 60 mL of mixed solution I containing ferrous sulfate and potassium nitrate at 60 °C for 20 min, then add pretreated carbon fiber and 6 mL of ammonia water and react at 60 °C for 1 h. After the reaction is complete, let it stand at room temperature for 24 h to obtain mixture I.
[0074] (3) The mixture I was washed with deionized water for 3 min and then heat-treated at 80°C for 3 h to obtain carbon fiber supported Fe3O4 composite material (denoted as Fe3O4@ACF).
[0075] Comparative Example 1
[0076] The procedure is similar to that in Example 1, except that in step (2), an equal volume of mixed solution II is used to replace mixed solution I.
[0077] The remaining steps are the same as in Example 1, resulting in a carbon fiber-supported Fe3O4 composite material (denoted as Fe3O4@ACF-a).
[0078] Comparative Example 2
[0079] The process was carried out in a similar manner to Example 1, except that in step (2), 60 mL of a mixed solution I containing ferrous sulfate and potassium nitrate was stirred at 110°C for 20 min, and then pretreated carbon fiber and 6 mL of ammonia water were added and reacted at 110°C for 1 h. After the reaction was completed, the mixture was allowed to stand at room temperature for 24 h to obtain mixture I.
[0080] The remaining steps are the same as in Example 1, resulting in a carbon fiber-supported Fe3O4 composite material (denoted as Fe3O4@ACF-b).
[0081] Comparative Example 3
[0082] The procedure is similar to that in Example 1, except that in step (1), carbon fiber I is replaced with carbon fiber II of equal area.
[0083] The remaining steps are the same as in Example 1, resulting in a carbon fiber-supported Fe3O4 composite material (denoted as Fe3O4@ACF-c).
[0084] Test Example 1
[0085] The material obtained in Example 1 was subjected to structural characterization.
[0086] Figure 2 SEM images of the Fe3O4@ACF composite material prepared in Example 1 at different magnifications. Figure 2 As can be seen in (a) to (c), the samples exhibit a large number of dense ACF filaments with a diameter of 11 μm. The ACF displays a unique, interlaced rod-like fiber structure with numerous grooves on its surface. This unique morphology contributes to the material's large specific surface area and abundant active sites. (d) to (f) show the increase in ACF surface roughness after loading. Furthermore, smaller Fe3O4@ACF particles aggregate to form larger particle clusters, and a layer of Fe3O4 flocculent loading layer results in a rough and inhomogeneous microstructure on the sample surface. This result demonstrates that Fe3O4 particles have been successfully loaded onto the ACF surface.
[0087] Figure 3 The image shows the energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction (EDS) spectrum of the Fe3O4@ACF composite material prepared in Example 1. Figure 3 It can be seen that the Fe, O, C and K elements are evenly distributed in the Fe3O4@ACF composite material, and the weight percentages of C, O, Fe and K are 3.13%, 27.46%, 0.02% and 69.40%, respectively.
[0088] Figure 4 The images show TEM (ab) and HRTEM (c) images, as well as elemental mapping (d) of the Fe3O4@ACF composite material prepared in Example 1. Figure 4 As can be seen from (a) to (b), the composite material is nearly spherical and clustered on the ACF. A clear boundary can be observed between the Fe3O4 crystals and the ACF material, indicating that Fe3O4 is tightly adhered to the ACF surface. Figure 4 As can be seen from (c), the lattice spacing of the prepared Fe3O4 is 0.153 nm, corresponding to the (511) crystal plane of iron(III) oxide. Furthermore, from... Figure 4 As shown in (d), Fe3O4@ACF contains C, O, Fe, and K elements, with C, O, and Fe distributed very uniformly, while K is sparsely distributed. This further indicates that the Fe3O4@ACF composite material has been successfully constructed.
[0089] Figure 5The image shows the X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of the Fe3O4@ACF composite material prepared in Example 1. Figure 5 It can be seen that there are five diffraction peaks at 31.249°, 36.82°, 44.726°, 59.303°, and 65.186°, corresponding to the (220), (311), (400), (511), and (440) planes of Fe3O4, respectively, which correspond to the Fe3O4 standard card (JCPDF card number 26-1136). X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed the presence of Fe3O4 particles in the Fe3O4@ACF composite material. On the other hand, the diffraction peaks of active carbon in the X-ray diffraction spectrum are not obvious, indicating that it exists as an amorphous phase in the modified material.
[0090] Figure 6 The image shows the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectrum of the Fe3O4@ACF composite material prepared in Example 1. Figure 6 The figures below represent the total XPS spectrum, the C 1s peak, the O 1s peak, and the Fe 2p peak, respectively. Three characteristic peaks can be observed in the C 1s peak spectrum, which can be attributed to the sp atoms of carbon atoms. 2 Orbital hybridization (284.1 eV), CO (285.0 eV), O=CO (290.9 eV). The O1s peak spectrum shows three characteristic peaks: metal oxide (529.70 eV), metal hydroxide (532.83 eV), and CO bond (531.61 eV). The Fe 2p peak spectrum shows peaks for Fe 2p3 / 2 and Fe 2p1 / 2, centered at 711.2 eV and 724.9 eV respectively, close to the standard XPS data for Fe3O4. Furthermore, Fe… II and Fe III The presence of Fe on the electrode surface is determined by peaks at 710.80 eV, 712.9 eV, 724.3 eV, and 726.27 eV, while the satellite peak near 718.7 eV represents Fe in γ-Fe₂O₃. 3+ The characteristic peaks indicate that the Fe3O4 nanoparticles are partially oxidized.
[0091] The XRD and XPS results above confirm that Fe3O4 was successfully loaded onto the ACF surface.
[0092] Figure 7 The figures show (a) nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms and (b) pore size distribution curves of the Fe3O4@ACF composite material prepared in Example 1. Figure 7As shown in (a), the adsorption and desorption isotherms do not overlap, which is due to the presence of a large amount of carbon in the modified material, forming a hysteresis loop. According to the IUPAC classification, the modified material exhibits characteristics of a Type II adsorption isotherm with a Type H3 hysteresis loop, indicating that the pore structure of the sample typically consists of wedge-shaped pores formed by the loose stacking of lamellar particles. Figure 7 As can be seen from (b), micropores with diameters of 1.7-2.0 nm and mesopores with diameters of 2.0-5.0 nm are ubiquitous.
[0093] Test Example 2
[0094] The electrochemical performance of Fe3O4@ACF was evaluated using linear sweep voltammetry (LSV), and the test results are as follows: Figure 8 As shown. By Figure 8 As can be seen from (a), the oxygen reduction current densities of carbon fiber (ACF) and Fe3O4@ACF at -3.25V are 9.4 mA·cm⁻¹. -2 21.8mA·cm -2 This indicates that Fe3O4@ACF possesses excellent oxygen reduction activity.
[0095] Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was performed on ACF and Fe3O4@ACF to investigate their electrochemical properties and electron transfer capabilities. The test results are as follows: Figure 8 As shown in (b). By Figure 8 As can be seen from (b), Fe3O4@ACF has a smaller radius of curvature, indicating that Fe3O4@ACF has the smallest charge transfer resistance Rct (7.18Ω), and charge transfer is subject to a smaller resistance. Therefore, Fe3O4@ACF exhibits a higher oxygen reduction peak current density and a higher charge transfer capability, thus demonstrating good electrocatalytic activity.
[0096] Test Example 3
[0097] The Fe3O4@ACF, Fe3O4@ACF-a, Fe3O4@ACF-b, and Fe3O4@ACF-c composite materials and carbon fibers prepared in the examples were tested for catalytic degradation performance. The specific test methods are as follows:
[0098] A 250 mL electrolytic cell was used as the reaction vessel. The cathode was the test material, and the anode was a platinum sheet electrode. Both the cathode and anode electrodes were 2 cm × 2 cm in size, with an electrode spacing of 3 cm. A mixed aqueous solution (100 mL) of Na₂SO₄ (0.05 mol / L) and tetracycline hydrochloride (20 mg / L) was added to the electrolytic cell. The current was supplied by an adjustable constant voltage DC power supply. Air was then pumped into the solution at a flow rate of 200 mL / min for 120 min. Ten minutes before the experiment began, a mechanical stirrer was started for rapid mixing, and air was introduced to form an air-saturated electro-Fenton system. The current was set to 0.12 A, and the current density was set to 30 mA / cm². 2 The degradation time was 120 min. Every 30 min, the supernatant was placed in a cuvette and the tetracycline content in the solution was determined using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer to calculate the catalytic degradation efficiency.
[0099] The formula for calculating catalytic degradation efficiency is: Degradation efficiency (%) = (C0 - C) / ... t ) / C0*100%; where C0 represents the initial concentration of tetracycline, C t The concentration of tetracycline at time t is represented; the test results are shown in Table 1.
[0100] Table 1
[0101] Example number Catalytic degradation efficiency (%) after 120 min of testing carbon fiber 64.21 Example 1 82.46 Comparative Example 1 67.72 Comparative Example 2 71.35 Comparative Example 3 69.84
[0102] Test Example 4
[0103] The Fe3O4@ACF composite material from Example 1 was used as the anode and cathode for stability testing. The specific testing methods are as follows:
[0104] A 250 mL electrolytic cell was used as the reaction vessel, the cathode as the test material, and the anode as a platinum sheet electrode. The dimensions of both the cathode and anode were 2 cm × 2 cm, and the electrode spacing was 3 cm. A mixed aqueous solution (100 mL) of Na₂SO₄ (0.05 mol / L) and tetracycline hydrochloride (20 mg / L) was added to the electrolytic cell. The current was provided by an adjustable constant voltage DC power supply. Then, air was introduced into the solution at a flow rate of 200 mL / min using an air pump. After 120 min, the tetracycline content in the solution was measured using a UV spectrophotometer. The above steps were repeated five times using the same cathode test material.
[0105] Test results are as follows Figure 9 As shown. By Figure 9 It can be seen that the degradation rate of tetracycline remained at around 80% and did not significantly decrease after 5 cycles. This indicates that the Fe3O4@ACF electrode has good stability and can be reused.
[0106] Test Example 5
[0107] Referring to the method in Test Example 4, the catalytic degradation efficiency of the Fe3O4@ACF composite material in Example 1 on Rhodamine B (20 mg / L), trivalent arsenic solution (10 mg / L, obtained by dilution of trivalent arsenic standard solution), methylene blue (20 mg / L), and methyl orange (20 mg / L) was investigated. The specific test results are shown in Table 2.

[0109] Recalcitrant pollutants Catalytic degradation efficiency (tested over 120 min) Rhodamine B 83.64% Arsenic-containing solution 87.06% Methyl blue 89.72% Methyl orange 88.95%
[0110] The above results indicate that the Fe3O4@ACF composite electrode has excellent degradation efficiency and wide applicability to the degradation of various pollutants, highlighting its potential application in the treatment of various organic pollutants.
