Abstract:

A series of g-C3N4/Bi2MoO6 composite photocatalysts were synthesized by thermal condensation polymerization and hydrothermal method.The structure and performance of the materials were characterized by using X-ray diffraction(XRD),infrared spectrometer(FT-IR),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),transmission electron microscopy(TEM),N2 adsorption and desorption process,UV-Vis diffusion reflection spectroscopy(UV-Vis DRS) and photoluminescence spectrum(PL).The photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B(RhB) was studied.The results showed that compared with pure Bi2MoO6,the g-C3N4/Bi2MoO6 composites improved absorbing ability in the visible light region,reduced the band gap width,and exhibited enhanced photocatalytic activity for RhB degradation under visible light irradiation.It was found that the 5% g-C3N4/Bi2MoO6 composite showed the highest photocatalytic activity for RhB,and the RhB degradation rate was 93% with visible light irradiation of 180 minutes.Under the same circumstances,the Bi2MoO6 degradation rate of RhB was 58%.The recovery test showed that the composites were rather stable during the RhB photodegradation,which had better application potential.
