Abstract
Photocatalytic degradation stands as an effective remedy to solve the global environmental pollution caused by organic pollutants. In this study, we synthesized a NiFe layered double hydroxide/Bi2WO6 (NF-LDH/BWO) Step-scheme (S-scheme) heterojunction. The attachment of NF-LDH particles on flower-like BWO increased the active sites and the interface area between two pure materials. The construction of LDH/BWO heterojunction endowed with improved light absorption capacity and boosted separation efficiency of photo-generated carriers. Consequently, compared with BWO and NF-LDH, the NF-LDH/BWO composites showed enhanced photoactivities. At NF-LDH mass ratio of 10%, the optimal degradation rate of ciprofloxacin (75.9%) within 60 min under visible illumination was achieved, 1.43- and 9.37-fold those of BWO and NF-LDH, respectively. In addition, the NF-LDH/BWO composite also demonstrated excellent cyclic stability. The S-scheme mechanism was proposed based on both experimental and density functional calculation results.
期刊介绍:
The aim of the journal is to provide a respectful outlet for ''sound science'' papers in all research areas on surfaces and interfaces. We define sound science papers as papers that describe new and well-executed research, but that do not necessarily provide brand new insights or are merely a description of research results.
Surfaces and Interfaces publishes research papers in all fields of surface science which may not always find the right home on first submission to our Elsevier sister journals (Applied Surface, Surface and Coatings Technology, Thin Solid Films)
