Facile Synthesis and Enhanced Photocatalytic Performance of Flower-like ZnO Hierarchical Microstructures
Abstract
ZnO hierarchical microstructures with uniform flower-like morphology were prepared on a large scale through a template- and surfactant-free low-temperature (80 °C) aqueous solution route. The product was characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and Brunauer−Emmett−Teller N 2 adsorption−desorption analyses. The flower-like ZnO microstructures are assembled by many interleaving nanosheets which have the uniform thickness of about 10 nm and a well-crystalline structure with dominant surfaces as {21̅1̅0} planes. Control experiments revealed that the formation of the flower-like ZnO was based on the fast nucleation−growth kinetics. The flower-like ZnO sample shows an enhanced photocatalytic performance compared with the other nanostructured ZnO powders of nanoparticles, nanosheets, and nanorods, which can be attributed to the special structural feature with an open and porous nanostructured surface layer that significantly facilitates the diffusion and mass transportation of RhB molecules and oxygen species in photochemical reaction of RhB degradation.

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.
