MoO3@ZIF-8 core–shell photocatalysts for the degradation of organic dye under visible-light irradiation
Background
Composites of semiconductors and metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have opened up a promising research direction in the field of photocatalysis, particularly for treating environmental pollution. Despite extensive research on MoO3 and ZIF-8 in photocatalysis, their organic pollutant degradation efficiency remains constrained under visible light due to rapid charge carrier recombination in monocomponent systems.
Methods
In this study, MoO3@MOF core–shell nanocomposites were synthesized by stirring method using MoO3 nanorods as the semiconductor and ZIF-8 as the MOF. The physicochemical characterization results confirmed the successful growth of ZIF-8 on the MoO3 nanorod surfaces.
Significant findings
The photocatalytic performance of MoO3@ZIF-8 was analyzed by evaluating its degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) solutions under visible light. MoO3@ZIF-8 showed superior degradation and photocatalytic activity over pure MoO3 or ZIF-8. The degradation rate of RhB reached 83.6 % after 120 min of visible-light irradiation. MoO3@0.05ZIF-8 (the mass of each reagent for ZIF-8 synthesis was 0.05 g) exhibited the highest adsorption capacity among the composite materials, reaching 28.9 %. The enhanced performance originates from synergistic MoO3-ZIF-8 interactions, demonstrating the composite's potential for photocatalytic organic pollutant degradation.
