The invention discloses a preparation method of an In2O3-Cu-Cu2O ternary
heterojunction catalyst and a preparation method of the In2O3-Cu-Cu2O ternary
heterojunction catalyst. The method comprises the following steps: at
room temperature and normal pressure, firstly, dissolving
indium chloride tetrahydrate in a mixed
solvent of
ethylenediamine-
ethylene glycol (the volume ratio is 1: 20-1: 30) and dihydric
alcohol amine to obtain a homogeneous solution; then transferring the solution to a hydrothermal kettle, adding deionized water and Cu2O
powder with different volumes, and carrying out hydrothermal
crystallization at 160-200 DEG C for 10-14 hours; and centrifuging the obtained precipitate, alternately washing with water and
alcohol for 2-3 times, carrying out
vacuum drying at 60 DEG C for 5-7 hours, heating to 600 + / -10 DEG C at a speed of 3-5 DEG C / min in an N2
atmosphere, calcining for 3 hours, and cooling along with a furnace to obtain a target product. By adjusting the adding amount of the deionized water, the
mass proportion of the three phases of In2O3, Cu and Cu2O can be continuously adjusted and controlled, and controllable preparation from'rich
copper 'to'rich cuprous
oxide' and'stable ternary 'is achieved.
