Construction of 2D/2D ZnIn 2S 4/Nb 2CT x (MXene) hybrid with hole transport highway and active facet exposure boost photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 673:958-970. [PMID: 38917670 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.06.139] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2024] [Revised: 06/17/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024]
Abstract
In this study, leveraging the tunable surface groups of MXene, the two-dimensional (2D) Nb2CTx with OH terminal (NC) was synthesized. 2D ZnIn2S4 (ZIS) nanosheets were prepared with the aid of sodium citrate, enhancing the exposure ratio of active (110) facet. On this basis, 2D/2D ZnIn2S4/Nb2CTx heterojunctions were fabricated to improve photocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance. The optimized 6 wt%Nb2CTx/ZnIn2S4-450 (6NC/ZIS-450) photocatalyt exhibits a remarkable HER rate of 3603 μmol g-1h-1, which is 10 times superior to that of the original ZnIn2S4. Its apparent quantum efficiency (AQE) at 380 nm reaches 14.9 %. Meanwhile, even after 5 rounds of HER, the activity of 2D/2D ZnIn2S4/Nb2CTx heterojunction remained at 90 %, far superior to that of pure ZnIn2S4 (34 % and 31 %). Energy band structure analysis and density functional theory (DFT) calculation indicate that Nb2CTx adsorbed with OH exhibit a low work function. By serving as a hole cocatalyst, it effectively boosts the photocatalytic HER rate of ZnIn2S4/Nb2CTx heterojunction and inhibits the photocorrosion of ZnIn2S4. This unique insight, via hole transport highways and increased exposure of active facets, effectively enhances the activity and stability of sulfides photocatalysts.

Insights into the function of metallic 1T phase tungsten disulfide as cocatalyst decorated zinc indium sulfide for enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen production activity. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 673:826-835. [PMID: 38908282 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.06.128] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2024] [Revised: 06/01/2024] [Accepted: 06/16/2024] [Indexed: 06/24/2024]
Abstract
Improving the separation efficiency of carriers is an important part of enhancing photocatalytic activity. Herein, we successfully decorated metallic 1T phase tungsten disulfide (1T-WS2) on the surface of zinc indium sulfide (ZnIn2S4) and investigated the synergistic effect of 1T-WS2 on ZnIn2S4. The characterization results show that 1T-WS2 improves the light absorption capacity and utilization efficiency, increases the catalytic active site, improves the photogenerated charge separation efficiency, and optimizes the reduction potential of ZnIn2S4. Theoretical calculations show that compared with ZnIn2S4, 1T-WS2/ZnIn2S4 has a smaller adsorption Gibbs free energy of the intermediate state H*, which is conducive to the catalytic reaction. Under simulated solar irradiation, the hydrogen (H2) production rate of 1T-WS2/ZnIn2S4 with a loading of 12 wt% reaches 30.90 mmol h-1 g-1, which is 3.38 times higher than that of single ZnIn2S4 (9.13 mmol h-1 g-1). In addition, the apparent quantum efficiency of 1T-WS2/ZnIn2S4 with a loading of 12 wt% reaches 21.14 % under monochromatic light at a wavelength of λ = 370 nm. This work analyzes the light absorption and carrier separation to the catalytic site, and elucidates the mechanism for the enhancement of the photocatalytic hydrogen production performance.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 668:492-501. [PMID: 38691959 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.04.166] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2024] [Revised: 04/21/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/03/2024]
Abstract
The improvement of surface reactivity in noble-metal-free cocatalysts is crucial for the development of efficient and cost-effective photocatalytic systems. However, the influence of crystallinity on catalytic efficacy has received limited attention. Herein, we report the utilization of structurally disordered MoSe2 with abundant 1T phase as a versatile cocatalyst for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. Using MoSe2/carbon nitride (CN) hybrids as a case study, it is demonstrated that amorphous MoSe2 significantly enhances the hydrogen evolution rate of CN, achieving up to 11.37 μmol h-1, surpassing both low crystallinity (8.24 μmol h-1) and high crystallinity MoSe2 (3.86 μmol h-1). Experimental analysis indicates that the disordered structure of amorphous MoSe2, characterized by coordination-unsaturated surface sites and a rich 1T phase with abundant active sites at the basal plane, predominantly facilitates the conversion of surface-bound protons to hydrogen. Conversely, the heightened charge transfer capacity of the highly crystalline counterpart plays a minor role in enhancing practical catalytic performance. This approach is applicable for enhancing the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution performance of various semiconducting photocatalysts, including CdS, TiO2, and ZnIn2S4, thereby offering novel insights into the advancement of high-performance non-precious catalysts through phase engineering.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 360:124682.

Abstract
Photocatalyst-activated peroxymonosulfate (PMS) degradation of pollutants is already widely used for wastewater treatment under visible light. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is widely used in daily life, but waste plastics have an irreversible negative impact on the environment. In this paper, the ZIF-67/g-C3N4 S-scheme heterojunction catalyst was synthesized as a photocatalyst to achieve a good effect on PET degradation in coordination with PMS. The results indicated that PET could be degraded up to 60.63 ± 2.12 % under the combined effect of catalyst, PMS, and light. In this experiment, the influence of catalyst-to-plastic ratio, PMS concentration, aqueous pH, and inorganic anions on plastic degradation by the photocatalytic synergistic PMS system was discussed, and the excellent performance of this system for degrading PET was highlighted through a comparative test. Electron spin resonance (ESR) and free radical quenching experiments demonstrated that SO4•- contributes the largest amount to the PET degradation performance. Furthermore, results from gas chromatography and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) indicated that the plastic degradation products include CO, CH4, and organic small-molecule liquid fuels. Finally, a possible mechanism for the light/PMS system to degrade PET in water was suggested. This paper provides a feasible solution to treat waste microplastics in water.

Abstract
Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) are discrete, quasi-spherical carbon nanoparticles with sizes below 10 nm. The properties of CQDs can be further enhanced by doping with elements such as nitrogen, phosphorous, sulphur, and boron or co-doping with heteroatoms such as nitrogen-phosphorous, nitrogen-sulphur, and nitrogen-boron. These excellent properties of CQDs can be utilized to enhance the photocatalytic performance of semiconductors. Therefore, in this review, we summarize different types of bare CQD-scaffolded semiconductors, both doped and co-doped, used for photocatalytic hydrogen production. Moreover, the detailed photocatalytic mechanism of CQD/semiconductor-based hydrogen production is reviewed. Recent progress in the design and development of CQD-based photocatalysts, along with the challenges involved, is comprehensively reviewed.

Abstract
A superficial, one step thermal polycondensation method has been employed for the manifestation of graphene like graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) catalyst. The as synthesized g-C3N4 was well characterized by SEM and EDAX analysis, XRD, ATR-IR, FTIR, Fluorescence spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy and UV-Visible spectroscopy which provide structural, morphological assemblage relating to the structure of g-C3N4. The g-C3N4 showed that an outstanding photochemical stability, morphology, conductive carbon framework and superior photocatalytic activity. The band gap value of g-C3N4 is 2.34 eV determined using Tauc plot. Due to low band gap (2.33 eV) and unique morphology which provides high separation and migration ability of the photogenerated charges, the g-C3N4 shows enhanced photocatalytic activity for the removal of many organic dyes such as Rhodamine B (RhB), Crystal Violet (CV), Methylene Blue (MB), Methyl Orange (MO), Naphthol Orange (NO) and a phenol derivative, p-Nitrophenol (p-NP). Among them, RhB dye was degraded almost 81 % at 90 min under sunlight irradiation in presence g-C3N4 while other dyes and p-NP was degraded at lower rate. From the experimental data, it was found that MO and p-NP degradation rate was least. The rate constant for degradation of Rh B is 1.1 × 10-2 min-1. Therefore, g-C3N4 can be used as an efficient photocatalyst for waste water treatment by the removal of such organic pollutants.

Abstract
Tubular Co9S8/CdS heterostructures have been successfully synthesized by in-situ growing CdS onto Co9S8 nanotubes through a simultaneous immobilization and in-situ reduction strategy. It turned out that the so-obtained heterostructure with Co9S8/CdS molar ratio of 1/10 can display a broad light absorption edge and especially much enhanced capacity for photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI) under visible light. The characterization analysis and experimental results suggested that an interfacial electrostatic field between Co9S8 and CdS elements in the heterostructure could be constructed due to their different Fermi levels, allowing for more quantities of highly reductive electrons to participate in the photocatalytic reaction. Therefore, the so-obtained Co9S8/CdS (1/10) heterostructures could achieve the photocatalytic reduction efficiency of 100% within 20 min, which was more than two and four times larger than that of pristine CdS and Co9S8, respectively. Moreover, the possible photocatalytic reaction mechanism for reducing Cr(VI) was investigated and found to follow the direct Z-scheme charge transfer pathway. This novel fabrication route for composite photocatalysts with tubular heterostructures could lead to the widespread implementations for the elimination of various harmful pollutants in the process of environmental governance.

Abstract
Improving the separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers plays an important role in photocatalysis. In this study, two-dimensional (2D)/2D zinc indium sulfide (ZnIn2S4)/bismuth titanate (Bi4Ti3O12) nanoplate heterojunctions were synthesized to alter the Bi4Ti3O12 morphology, modulate the bandgap of Bi4Ti3O12, and enhance the utilization of light. Meanwhile, the construction of the S-scheme heterojunction establishes an internal electric field at the ZnIn2S4/Bi4Ti3O12 heterojunctions interface and achieves the spatial separation of photogenerated charges. The hydrogen production rate of ZnIn2S4/Bi4Ti3O12 nanoplate with the optimal ratio reaches 27.50 mmol h-1 g-1, which is 1.5 times higher than that of ZnIn2S4/Bi4Ti3O12 nanoflower (18.28 mmol h-1 g-1) and 2.4 times higher than that of ZnIn2S4 (11.69 mmol h-1 g-1). The apparent quantum efficiency of ZnIn2S4/Bi4Ti3O12 nanoplate reached 57.9 % under a single wavelength of light at 370 nm. This work provides insights into the study of new materials for photocatalytic hydrogen production.

Abstract
So far, many adsorbents and nanocomposites have been synthesized by different methods and used to remove or degradation of dye pollutants. Nowadays, the use of natural adsorbents and their modification with simple methods based on metal oxides are of interest to many researchers. In this study, for the first time, we report the simple and low-cost modification of tea pomace waste (TPW) with tungsten oxide (WO3) based on the photochemical method as a green, cost-effective, and biodegradable photocatalyst for the degradation of Rh B dye pollutant. The results obtained from FE-SEM, EDAX, XRD, XPS, PL, BET and UV-Vis Diffusive Reflectance (DRS) analyses confirmed the successful modification of the TPW surface with WO3 (WO3/TPW). The parameters affecting the photocatalytic behavior of WO3/TPW, including the time of photochemical modification and the type of radiation on its photocatalytic activity, were carefully optimized. WO3/TPW showed excellent photocatalytic activity compared to TPW for the degradation of Rh B dye pollutant under UV light for 30 min (94 %). Finally, the effective parameters on the value of Rh B dye degradation by WO3/TPW photocatalyst including pH, adsorbent dosage, the concentration of dye pollutant, and the kinetics of the degradation process were studied. It is expected that this type of photochemical modification method and natural WO3/TPW photocatalyst will be a promising path for the synthesis, modification, and increase of the photocatalytic performance of natural adsorbents.

Abstract
The increase of reaction temperature of electrocatalysts and the construction of heterogeneous structures is regarded as an efficient method to improve the electrocatalytic water splitting activity. Here, we report an approach to enhance the local heat and active sites of the catalyst by building a heterostructure with Co9S8 to significantly improve its electrocatalytic performance. The as-fabricated Co9S8@Ce-NiCo LDH/NF electrode possesses a notable photothermal ability, as it effectively converts near-infrared (NIR) light into the local heat, owing to its significant optical absorption. Leveraging these favorable qualities, the prepared Co9S8@Ce-NiCo LDH/NF electrode showed impressive performance in both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) (η100 = 144 mV) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) (η100 = 229 mV) under NIR light. Compared to the absence of the NIR light, the presence of NIR irradiation leads to a 24.6 % increase in catalytic efficiency for HER and a 15.8 % increase for OER. Additionally, other dual-functional electrocatalysts like NiCo-P, NiFeMo, and NiFe(OH)x also demonstrated significantly enhanced photothermal effects and improved catalytic performance owing to the augmented photothermal conversion when combined with Co9S8. This work offers novel pathways for the development of photothermal-electrocatalytic systems that facilitate economically efficient and energy-conserving overall water splitting processes.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 661:1011-1024. [PMID: 38335786 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.01.212] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 01/30/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024]
Abstract
The high ion leaching, low photogenerated charge separation efficiency, and slow metal valence cycling of Fe-based metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have limited their application in the deep treatment of organic pollutants. Herein, FeCu bimetallic MOFs (FeCuBDC) were synthesized using a modified solvothermal method, and a coupled photo-Fenton degradation system was successfully constructed. Degradation performance tests showed that FeCuBDC could efficiently degrade 99.3% ± 0.1% of 50 mg/L phenol within 40 min. The reaction rate constants of the photo-Fenton system were 11.0 and 64.7 times higher than those of the single Fenton reaction and photocatalysis, respectively. FeCuBDC also exhibits good cycling stability, degradation generalization, and excellent photoelectric catalytic properties. Such a considerable enhancement in the overall performance pertains to the following. First, the introduction of Cu into Fe-MOFs not only improves the crystallinity and stability, but also reduces the band gap value, increases the absorption capacity of visible light, and promotes the generation of photogenerated carriers. Second, the FeCu in MOFs are all mixed valence. Initially, the high-valence FeCu captures photogenerated electrons and promotes photogenerated charge separation and transfer. Then, the low-valence FeCu adsorbs and decomposes H2O2, accelerating the valence cycling of the bimetallic sites. The core of the reaction mechanism is that FeCuBDC effectively promotes the photo-Fenton synergy.

Abstract
Heterojunction engineering is an effective strategy to improve photocatalytic performance. Two-dimensional (2D)/2D semimetal 1T' phase molybdenum sulfide/zinc indium sulfide (1T'-MoS2/ZnIn2S4) S-scheme heterojunctions with tight and stable interfaces were synthesized by a simple hydrothermal synthesis method. Under the optimal 1T'-MoS2 loading ratio (5 wt%), the hydrogen production rate of 1T'-MoS2/ZnIn2S4 composites reaches 11.42 mmol h-1 g-1, which is 3.1 and 1.4 times higher than that of pure ZnIn2S4 (2.9 mmol h-1 g-1) and ZnIn2S4/Pt (8.01 mmol h-1 g-1), and the apparent quantum efficiency (AQE) reaches 53.17 % (λ = 370 nm). Semimetal 1T' phase MoS2 on ZnIn2S4 broadens the light absorption range, enhances the light absorption ability, promotes electron transfer, and offers abundant active sites. The establishment of S-scheme heterojunctions achieves the spatial separation of photogenerated charges and increases the reduction potential. This work provides insights for the design of novel photocatalysts.

[PMID: 38175329 PMCID: PMC10766942 DOI: 10.1007/s40820-023-01297-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2023] [Accepted: 11/17/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024]
Abstract
Over the past decade, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has emerged as a universal photocatalyst toward various sustainable carbo-neutral technologies. Despite solar applications discrepancy, g-C3N4 is still confronted with a general fatal issue of insufficient supply of thermodynamically active photocarriers due to its inferior solar harvesting ability and sluggish charge transfer dynamics. Fortunately, this could be significantly alleviated by the "all-in-one" defect engineering strategy, which enables a simultaneous amelioration of both textural uniqueness and intrinsic electronic band structures. To this end, we have summarized an unprecedently comprehensive discussion on defect controls including the vacancy/non-metallic dopant creation with optimized electronic band structure and electronic density, metallic doping with ultra-active coordinated environment (M-Nx, M-C2N2, M-O bonding), functional group grafting with optimized band structure, and promoted crystallinity with extended conjugation π system with weakened interlayered van der Waals interaction. Among them, the defect states induced by various defect types such as N vacancy, P/S/halogen dopants, and cyano group in boosting solar harvesting and accelerating photocarrier transfer have also been emphasized. More importantly, the shallow defect traps identified by femtosecond transient absorption spectra (fs-TAS) have also been highlighted. It is believed that this review would pave the way for future readers with a unique insight into a more precise defective g-C3N4 "customization", motivating more profound thinking and flourishing research outputs on g-C3N4-based photocatalysis.

Abstract
Developing artificial S-scheme systems with highly active catalysts is significant to long-term solar-to-hydrogen conversion. Herein, CdS nanodots-modified hierarchical In2O3/SnIn4S8 hollow nanotubes were synthesized by an oil bath method for water splitting. Benefiting from the synergy among the hollow structure, tiny size effect, matched energy level positions, and abundant coupling heterointerfaces, the optimized nanohybrid attains an impressive photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rate of 110.4 µmol/h, and the corresponding apparent quantum yield reaches 9.7% at 420 nm. On In2O3/SnIn4S8/CdS interfaces, the migration of photoinduced electrons from both CdS and In2O3 to SnIn4S8via intense electronic interactions contributes to the ternary dual S-scheme modes, which are beneficial to promote faster spatial charge separation, deliver better visible light-harvesting ability, and provide more reaction active sites with high potentials. This work reveals protocols for rational design of on-demand S-scheme heterojunctions for sustainably converting solar energy into hydrogen in the absence of precious metals.

Abstract
With the macroscale and conductive carbon fiber cloth (CFC) as the substrate, the obtained self-supported photocatalysts hold great promise for enhancing the separation of generated carriers and the recyclability of catalysts, thereby improving the photocatalytic performance and practicality in various applications. Additionally, decorating metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with ultrahigh surface area on the surface of effective semiconductors is a promising method to enhance the adsorption capacity and photocatalytic performance. Herein, zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) as a typical MOFs was applied to modify carbon nitride (C3N4) on the surface of macroscale and conductive CFC. CFC/C3N4/ZIF-67 (4 × 4 cm2) was obtained by a thermal condensation-chemical bath deposition two-step route, and it shows superior adsorption and photocatalytic activity toward bisphenol A (BPA), levofloxacin (LVFX), ciprofloxacin (CIP) and good hydrogen evolution activity. Besides, the recycling test for four cycles indicates the high stability of CFC/C3N4/ZIF-67 with an easy recycling process. In this study, CFC/C3N4/ZIF-67 was prepared through the hydrothermal and chemical bath deposition two-step method, which enhances light absorption and photocatalytic performance, as well as recyclability for solving environmental and energy issues.

Abstract
Graphite phased carbon nitride (g-C3 N4 ) has attracted extensive attention attributed to its non-toxic nature, remarkable physical-chemical stability, and visible light response properties. Nevertheless, the pristine g-C3 N4 suffers from the rapid photogenerated carrier recombination and unfavorable specific surface area, which greatly limit its catalytic performance. Herein, 0D/3D Cu-FeOOH/TCN composites are constructed as photo-Fenton catalysts by assembling amorphous Cu-FeOOH clusters on 3D double-shelled porous tubular g-C3 N4 (TCN) fabricated through one-step calcination. Combined density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the synergistic effect between Cu and Fe species could facilitate the adsorption and activation of H2 O2 , and the separation and transfer of photogenerated charges effectively. Thus, Cu-FeOOH/TCN composites acquire a high removal efficiency of 97.8%, the mineralization rate of 85.5% and a first-order rate constant k = 0.0507 min-1 for methyl orange (MO) (40 mg L-1 ) in photo-Fenton reaction system, which is nearly 10 times and 21 times higher than those of FeOOH/TCN (k = 0.0047 min-1 ) and TCN (k = 0.0024 min-1 ), respectively, indicating its universal applicability and desirable cyclic stability. Overall, this work furnishes a novel strategy for developing heterogeneous photo-Fenton catalysts based on g-C3 N4 nanotubes for practical wastewater treatment.
