Abstract

Visible light induced degradation of the textile diazo dye Naphthol Blue Black (NBB) has been carried out on TiO 2 semiconductor nanoparticles. Diffuse reflectance transient absorption and FTIR techniques have been used to elucidate the mechanistic details of the dye degradation. The failure of the dye to degrade on insulator surfaces such as Al 2 O 3 or in the absence of oxygen further highlights the importance of semiconducting properties of support material in controlling the surface photochemical processes. The primary event following visible light excitation is the charge injection from the excited dye molecule into the conduction band of the semiconductor TiO 2, producing the dye cation radical. This was confirmed by diffuse reflectance laser flash photolysis. The surface-adsorbed oxygen plays an important role in scavenging photogenerated electrons, thus preventing the recombination between the dye cation radical and photoinjected electrons. Diffuse reflectance FTIR study facilitated identification of reaction intermediates and end products of dye degradation. By comparison with the degradation products from other azo dyes such as Chromotrope 2B and Chromotrope 2R we conclude that the NBB is degraded to a colorless naphthaquinone-like end product.

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.
