In this article, the spherical filler-like ZnFe2O4/Bi2MoO6 (ZFO/BMO) surrounded by nanosheets were synthesized by a solvothermal method using spherical ZnFe2O4 as a matrix. Scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Photoluminescence (PL), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Diffuse reflectance spectra (DRS) were used to characterize the prepared samples. The photocatalytic performance of the material was detected under 420 nm visible light by Rhodamine B (RhB). The degradation results indicated that the ZFO/BMO photocatalyst with 20% ZnFe2O4 content (ZFO/BMO-2) demonstrated highly efficient performance. The constructed Z-type ZFO/BMO heterojunction lengthens the visible light absorption threshold and improves the photocatalytic activity. Furthermore, ZFO/BMO heterojunction composite photocatalyst can be recycled effectively by applying an appropriate external magnetic field. It has important research value in photocatalysis and recycling. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Different metalheteropoly acid salt catalysts were prepared by adding different metal ions (Fe, Co, Ni), and the structure of the materials was characterised by XRD, infrared, ultraviolet, fluorescence, etc., and heteropolyacid salt (TBA)4Hx[PW11M(Q)O39]·nH2O, wherein M = (Fe, Co, Ni) with Keggin-type structure was confirmed. A series of changes in the surface of the material after the addition of metal ions can be seen by scanning electron microscopy. The stability of the material was also experimentally designed and the material showed good stability. The prepared materials were subjected to the degradation of organophosphorus followed by O,O-diethyl-S-(p-tolyl) phosphorothioate as a degradation substrate. The catalytic performance of (TBA)4[PW11Fe(H2O)O39]·2H2O was found better among all synthesised materials, it degraded completely under visible light in 90 min, and degradations performance was analysed by ion chromatography by determining the presence of PO43-. In order to explore its degradation mechanism, ammonium oxalate (AO), isopropanol (IPA) and benzoquinone (BQ) were used to quench holes (h+), hydroxyl radicals (•OH) and superoxide radicals (•O2−). It was observed that the important role in the degradation reaction is due to •OH radicals and it was also confirmed through 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO) spin capture electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) technology validates this conclusion. The prepared photocatalysts (TBA)4[PW11Fe(H2O)O39]·2H2O can be better applied to the degradation of organic phosphorus, which can reduce the environmental pollution caused by the use of organic phosphorus.

Scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Photoluminescence (PL), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Diffuse reflectance spectra (DRS) were used to characterize the prepared samples. The photocatalytic performance of the material was detected under 420 nm visible light by Rhodamine B (RhB). The degradation results indicated that the ZFO/BMO photocatalyst with 20% ZnFe 2 O 4 content (ZFO/BMO-2) demonstrated highly efficient performance.
