摘要
背景柠檬酸铅是一种前驱体,可通过回收铅酸蓄电池的废铅膏制备。柠檬酸铅可用于合成氧化铅,而氧化铅可重复用于铅酸蓄电池。PbS@Cu2S 是通过微波辅助水热法和离子交换法制备的。根据陶克图、紫外光电子能谱、电子顺磁共振清扫试验和原位近边 X 射线吸收精细结构(NEXAFS)分析的结果,提出了一种 S 型异质结。原位近边 X 射线吸收精细结构分析的结果表明,光激发电子从 PbS 转移到了 Cu2S。通过负载优化量的 Cu2S,PbS@Cu2S 光催化剂的载流子分离和光催化活性得到了改善。该技术可将柠檬酸铅前驱体转化为 PbS@Cu2S 光催化剂,其 H2 生成活性极高(3824 μmol g-1 h-1)。
Electron-transfer dynamics and photocatalytic H2-production activity of PbS@Cu2S nanocomposites
Background
Lead citrate is a precursor that can be prepared by recycling the spent lead paste of lead-acid batteries. Lead citrate is used to synthesize lead oxide, which can be repeatedly utilized for the lead-acid battery application.
Methods
We report a new application of lead citrate precursor to synthesize PbS@Cu2S nanomaterials for photocatalytic H2 production. PbS@Cu2S was prepared by microwave-assisted hydrothermal and ion-exchange processes. The electron-transfer dynamics and H2-production activity of PbS@Cu2S photocatalysts were studied.
Significant findings
A S-scheme heterojunction is proposed based on the results of Tauc plots, ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy, the electron paramagnetic resonance scavenger test, and in situ near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) analysis. Results of in situ NEXAFS reveal the transfer of photoexcited electrons from PbS to Cu2S. By loading an optimized amount of Cu2S, the carrier separation and photocatalytic activity of PbS@Cu2S photocatalysts are improved. This technology can transform the lead citrate precursor to the PbS@Cu2S photocatalyst with excellent high H2 production activity (3824 μmol g−1 h−1).
