Controllable synthesis of hexagon-shaped β-AgI nanoplates in reactable ionic liquid and their photocatalytic activity

Microwave-assisted synthesis of a superfine Ag/AgI photocatalyst with high activity and excellent durability

“…The maximum absorption peaks of RhB at 554 nm were found to diminish quickly when the irradiation time increased to 20 min, accompanied by hypsochromic shifts in the maximum absorption from 554 to 501 nm. The observed result was caused by the formation of a series of N-de-ethylated intermediates in a stepwise manner [32], such as N-ethyl-Nethylrhodamine, N,N-diethyl-N-ethylrhodamine, N-ethylrhodamine, N,N-diethylrhodamine, and rhodamine [33]. Similar trends were also observed in literature for AgBrBiOBr/RhB [34] and Bi 2 WO 6 -Fe 3 O 4 /RhB [35] systems.…”

Synthesis of g-C3N4/Ag3VO4 composites with enhanced photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation

“…Numerous researchers ascribed the promotion of the photocatalytic activity to the efficient charge transfer on the boundary of two the semiconductors (Ag 3 VO 4 and g-C 3 N 4 ), which could result in the effective separation of photogenerated electron-holes [49][50][51][52]. As shown in Fig.…”

AgBi(WO4)2: A New Modification Material to Bi2WO6 for Enhanced and Stable Visible‐Light Photocatalyic Performance

“…As an effective hydroxyl radicalscavenger, tert-butanolw as used to identify the existence of COH reactions. [9][10][11] As ignificant decrease in the degradation rate was observed with the addition of tertbutanol, which predominantly scavenged COH in the solution (see the Supporting Information). Hence, COH is one of the reactive species in the reaction.…”

“…Under visible-light irradiation, the photogenerated electrons could react with O 2 to form CO 2 À reactive species. [10,12] Therefore, if CO 2 À is an effective oxidant specieso fM Oi nt he presence of AgBi(WO 4 ) 2 -Bi 2 WO 6 ,t he photocatalytic degradation efficiencyw ould be lower in aN 2 -saturated solution than in an air-saturated solution. According to the resultss hown in Figure 3B, the degradation of MO was inhibited by about half in the N 2 -saturated solution relative to that in the air-saturated solution.…”
