High Photocatalytic Activity of ZnO−Carbon Nanofiber Heteroarchitectures
Abstract
One-dimensional ZnO-carbon nanofibers (CNFs) heteroarchitectures with high photocatalytic activity have been successfully obtained by a simple combination of electrospinning technique and hydrothermal process. The as-obtained products were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and IR spectrum. The results revealed that the secondary ZnO nanostructures were successfully grown on the primary CNFs substrates without aggregation. And, the coverage density of ZnO nanoparticles coating on the surface of the CNFs could be controlled by simply adjusting the mass ratio of zinc acetate to CNFs in the precursor during the hydrothermal process for the fabrication of ZnO-CNFs heterostructures. The obtained ZnO-CNFs heteroarchitectures showed high photocatalytic property to degrade rhodamine B (RB) because of the formation of heteroarchitectures, which might improve the separation of photogenerated electrons and holes. Moreover, the ZnO-CNFs heteroarchitectures could be easily recycled without the decrease in photocatalytic activity due to their one-dimensional nanostructural property.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
