Facile synthesis of novel hierarchical graphene–Bi2O2CO3 composites with enhanced photocatalytic performance under visible light

Abstract

A facile template-free hydrothermal approach is developed to synthesize hierarchical flower-like graphene-Bi(2)O(2)CO(3) microcomposites. The as-prepared samples were systematically characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, N(2) adsorption-desorption and UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The photocatalytic activity of the as-prepared samples was evaluated towards degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) under visible light. Compared to hierarchical Bi(2)O(2)CO(3), hierarchical flower-like graphene-Bi(2)O(2)CO(3) microcomposites show enhanced photocatalytic activity. In addition, our results indicate that both the physico-chemical properties and associated photocatalytic activity of graphene-Bi(2)O(2)CO(3) composites are shown to be dependent on graphene loadings. The highest photocatalytic performance can be achieved for the graphene-Bi(2)O(2)CO(3) microcomposites with 1.0 wt% graphene. The underlying mechanism responsible for the formation of graphene-Bi(2)O(2)CO(3) composites and enhanced photoreactivity was discussed. Results from this study illustrate an entirely new approach to fabricate semiconductor composites containing graphene-bismuth with high visible-responsive photocatalytic performance.

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.
