摘要: 以碳化植物纤维(CPF)为载体,将纳米TiO2附着于纤维表面,通过浸渍煅烧法和溶剂热法合成纳米TiO2/CPF复合光催化剂,并对其光催化性能进行了研究。通过SEM、HRTEM、XRD、EDS分析了纳米TiO2/CPF复合光催化剂的微观结构和化学组成;以光催化降解亚甲基蓝为模型反应,考察复合材料中不同纤维种类和TiO2负载量对光催化活性的影响。结果表明,在一定范围内随TiO2负载量的增加,纳米TiO2/CPF复合材料光催化性能先增强后减弱。纳米TiO2/CPF复合材料的光催化性能明显提高是由于在TiO2和碳纤维界面的良好电荷分离能力。降解染料的活性物种有超氧负离子和羟基自由基,但羟基自由基是主要物种。此外,浸渍煅烧法和溶剂热法生成的纳米TiO2在纤维表面的存在形式不同,浸渍煅烧法生成纳米TiO2薄膜,包裹纤维;而溶剂热法生成的TiO2结晶成纳米颗粒,附着于纤维表面。Abstract: The nano TiO2/carbonized plant fiber (CPF) composite photocatalysts were synthesized by impregnation-calcination and solvothermal methods, anchored with the nano TiO2 photocatalyst on the surface of carbon fiber, and the photocatalytic properties of the nano TiO2/CPF composite photocatalysts were studied by photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue. The microstructure and chemical compositions of the nano TiO2/CPF composite photocatalysts were characterized by SEM, HRTEM, XRD and EDS, and the effects of fiber and loading of TiO2 on the photocatalytic activity were studied via degradation of methylene blue. The results show that photocatalytic performance of nano TiO2/CPF composite photocatalysts enhances first and then decreases with the increase of the loading of TiO2 in a certain range. The improved photocatalytic activity of nano TiO2/CPF composite photocatalysts can be attributed to the synergistic effect of CPF and TiO2, and the excellent separation efficiency of charged carriers at the interface of TiO2 and CPF. The key active species in the reaction are superoxide anions and hydroxyl radical, and the latter is the main species. TiO2 formed by the impregnation-calcination and the solvothermal exhibits different forms on the surface of the fiber, corresponding to film enclosed the fiber, and crystalline nanoparticles attached on the surface of the fiber, respectively.
