还原氧化石墨烯负载极性面占优氧化锌对亚甲基蓝的光催化降解

摘要

采用光还原方法将氧化石墨烯负载在极性面占有的氧化锌六棱盘上合成出氧化锌-还原石墨烯复合光催化材料。在紫外-可见光辐照下，该复合材料的光催化降解亚甲基蓝活性得到明显提高。光催化性能的提高主要归因于还原氧化石墨烯对光生电子的捕获抑制了电子和空穴的复合以及还原氧化石墨烯对亚甲基蓝分子的有效吸附。还原氧化石墨烯的最优负载量约为2%，同时负载的还原石墨烯对光的吸收可在一定程度上减少复合材料对光子的利用率。%Graphene oxide was loaded onto ZnO disks with dominant polar facets and photo-reduced to form ZnO-RGO photocat-alysts. Their photocatalytic activity for methylene blue degradation is remarkably improved under UV-visible light irradiation. The enhanced activity is ascribed to the trapping effect of RGO for photoexcited electrons that inhibits electron/hole recombination and to the adsorption effect of RGO for methylene blue to increase its local concentration. The optimal loading of the RGO is ca. 2 mass%, above which light absorption by the RGO decreases the photo utilization efficiency.
