Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a method for preparing a photocatalyst and its application. Background Technology

[0002] The recent global energy crisis and increasingly severe environmental problems have led to greater focus on finding efficient, stable, and sustainable energy sources. Semiconductor-based photocatalysis technology can utilize abundant and virtually inexhaustible solar energy, and is therefore considered a promising and cost-effective method for producing clean and renewable energy. In photocatalysis, the slow relaxation process of the water oxidation oxygen evolution half-reaction is a key step determining the photocatalytic reaction rate. Therefore, the rational design and preparation of efficient, inexpensive, and stable water oxidation oxygen evolution photocatalysts are of great significance for improving photocatalytic efficiency.

[0003] Among numerous photocatalysts, bismuth-rich bismuth vanadate, as a novel bismuth vanadate-based catalyst, possesses a deeper valence band and a unique Aurivillius layered structure, resulting in stronger oxidation capabilities. Its unique piezoelectric characteristics and easily tunable spatial structure also make it a highly promising material for the photocatalytic water splitting and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). However, the unique structural factors of bismuth-rich bismuth vanadate lead to low photogenerated carrier separation efficiency and poor hole extraction ability, significantly limiting its OER activity. Therefore, defects can be constructed to form hole transport channels, promoting charge separation and transfer processes, thereby enhancing the photocatalytic OER activity.

[0004] However, current designs for bismuth-rich bismuth vanadate photocatalysts typically produce samples that are bulk and irregular in shape. To promote the separation and transfer of photogenerated charges, the method of constructing heterojunctions is often used, which results in low separation efficiency, difficulty in hole extraction, and a lack of water activation sites. There are no reports on the regulation of the material itself. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the problems of low photogenerated carrier separation efficiency, difficulty in hole extraction, and lack of water activation sites in bismuth-rich vanadate photocatalysts prepared by existing technologies. The invention provides a method for preparing a two-dimensional sub-nanometer ortho-vanadium-oxygen dual-defect bismuth-rich vanadate photocatalyst and its application in catalytic water desorption of oxygen.

[0006] A method for preparing a two-dimensional sub-nanometer ortho-vanadium-oxygen dual-defect bismuth-rich vanadate photocatalyst is carried out according to the following steps:

[0007] I. Preparation of two-dimensional sub-nanometer bismuth-rich vanadate:

[0008] ① Disperse the bismuth source and urea in an alcohol solvent and stir until completely dissolved to obtain solution A; disperse the surfactant in an alcohol solvent and stir until completely dissolved to obtain solution B; mix solution A and solution B, add ammonium metavanadate, adjust the pH of the system to weakly acidic, and continue stirring to obtain a suspension;

[0009] ② Transfer the suspension to a high-pressure reactor and perform a hydrothermal reaction at 180°C for a period of time. Then, allow it to cool naturally to room temperature to obtain reaction product I.

[0010] ③ Centrifuge reaction product I to remove the supernatant and obtain precipitate I; wash precipitate I, dry it, and finally calcine it to obtain bismuth-rich bismuth vanadate nanosheets.

[0011] II. Preparation of two-dimensional sub-nanometer ortho-vanadium-oxygen double-defect bismuth-rich vanadate photocatalysts:

[0012] ① Disperse bismuth-rich bismuth vanadate nanosheets in an acid solution, heat and stir to obtain reaction product II;

[0013] ② Centrifuge reaction product II to remove the supernatant and obtain precipitate II; wash precipitate II and dry it to obtain dried precipitate II.

[0014] ③ Add the polymer and organic solvent to deionized water to form a uniform and stable solution C. Disperse the dried precipitate II into solution C and continue stirring to obtain a suspension.

[0015] ④ Transfer the suspension to a high-pressure reactor and then perform a hydrothermal reaction at 120°C. Allow it to cool naturally to room temperature to obtain reaction product III.

[0016] ⑤ Centrifuge the reaction product Ⅲ to remove the supernatant and obtain precipitate Ⅲ; wash precipitate Ⅲ, dry it, and finally calcine it to obtain a two-dimensional sub-nanometer ortho-vanadium-oxygen double-defect bismuth vanadate photocatalyst.

[0017] A two-dimensional sub-nanometer ortho-vanadium-oxygen double-defect bismuth-rich vanadate photocatalyst is used as a photocatalyst for the desorption of oxygen from water.

[0018] The principle of this invention:

[0019] This invention first coordinates bismuth nitrate with ammonium metavanadate in a weakly acidic environment, introduces a surfactant to limit the synthesis rate of particles, and forms a sub-nanometer bismuth-rich bismuth vanadate. Then, it uses the principle of bismuth-chlorine interaction in hydrochloric acid to etch and obtain a bismuth-rich bismuth vanadate with exposed vanadium-oxygen layer. Furthermore, it uses a passivation reduction self-assembly method with polyvinylpyrrolidone and ethylene glycol to obtain a two-dimensional sub-nanometer ortho-vanadium-oxygen double-defect bismuth-rich bismuth vanadate photocatalyst.

[0020] Advantages of this invention:

[0021] I. The two-dimensional sub-nanometer ortho-vanadium-oxygen double-defect bismuth-rich vanadate photocatalyst prepared in this invention and existing vanadate photocatalysts

[0022] Compared to bismuth-based photocatalysts, the introduction of defects facilitates the directional transfer and separation of photogenerated holes;

[0023] II. The two-dimensional sub-nanometer ortho-vanadium-oxygen double-defect bismuth-vanadate photocatalyst prepared by this invention is more conducive to water adsorption and activation due to the presence of defect sites.

[0024] III. The two-dimensional sub-nanometer ortho-vanadium-oxygen double-defect bismuth-vanadate photocatalyst prepared by the present invention is suitable for photocatalytic decomposition of water to produce oxygen. Each gram of the two-dimensional sub-nanometer ortho-vanadium-oxygen double-defect bismuth-vanadate photocatalyst can generate 1.4 mmol / g of oxygen through photocatalytic decomposition of water to produce oxygen.
