Abstract
- Raw materials and synthesis strategies have great influence on the morphologies and optical properties of materials. In this study, ultrasonic synthesis of controllable thin sheet-like BiPO 4 with an excessive visible-light response was synthesized, using Bi-based metal-organic frameworks (CAU-17) and ionic liquid [Omim]H 2 PO 4 as raw materials. Compared with BiPO 4 -H (hydrothermal, solid rod shape) synthesized using inorganic salt, BiPO 4 -A (agitation, thin rod-like) and BiPO 4 -U (ultrasonic, thin sheet-like) have better visible-light absorption capacity and narrower band gap. Under visible-light, they could degrade 27.7 % (BiPO 4 -H), 73.0 % (BiPO 4 -A), and 76.3 % (BiPO 4 -U) tetracycline hydrochloride at 30 min, respectively. The speedy charge transfer at the photogenerated carrier interface, large specific surface areas, and improved light adsorption greatly enhance the photocatalytic performance. Cyclic experiments exhibit that the material has good photostability and repeatability. Finally, the feasible degradation mechanism of the material was proposed via a capture experiment. This paper provides a new technique for synthesizing BiPO 4 or other photocatalysts, which can be used for high-efficiency wastewater purification under visible-light. [Display omitted] • A novel ultrasonic synthesis method for BiPO 4 with excellent visible-light response is presented. • [Bi-MOF(CAU-17)] and [Omim]H 2 PO 4 were used as raw materials instead of traditional inorganic salts. • The linear average photocatalytic rate of BiPO 4 -U is 16.1 times of BiPO 4 -H synthesized by traditional methods. • Possible photocatalytic mechanism was proposed based on photo-electrochemical characterization and free radical tests.
