Abstract:

In order to improve the performance of BiOBr and UIO-66-(COOH)2 photocatalytic materials and the absorption intensity of visible light,as well as their photocatalytic activity and efficiency,a new type of composite photocatalyst BiOBr/UiO-66-(COOH)2 was prepared by simple solvothermal method.The sample was characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),transmission electron microscopy(TEM),fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR),photoluminescence(PL),N2 absorption-desorption,UV-visual diffuse reflectance spectroscopy(UV-vis DRS) and elec-trochemistry.The photocatalytic activity of BiOBr/UiO-66-(COOH)2 was investigated in the degradation efficiency of methyl orange.The results showed that after modifying BiOBr with UiO-66-(COOH)2,BiOBr/UiO-66-(COOH)2 retained the struc-ture of original materials.Moreover,with the increasing of the corresponding specific surface area,the visible light absorption of the sample increased.Under xenon lamp irradiation for 120 minutes,the degradation rate of BiOBr/UiO-66-(COOH)2 to methyl orange was as high as 70%,which was about 3.68 times and 1.43 times of pure UiO-66-(COOH)2 and BiOBr.The activity of the composite was significantly improved,and the photocatalytic degradation process was conformed to the law of first-order reaction kinetics.
