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:
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces is a leading interdisciplinary journal that brings together chemists, engineers, physicists, and biologists to explore the development and utilization of newly-discovered materials and interfacial processes for specific applications. Our journal has experienced remarkable growth since its establishment in 2009, both in terms of the number of articles published and the impact of the research showcased. We are proud to foster a truly global community, with the majority of published articles originating from outside the United States, reflecting the rapid growth of applied research worldwide.
