Description

Zinc oxide/zinc germanate-copper nano composite material photocatalyst and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of nano composite material preparation technology and photocatalysis, and particularly relates to a photocatalyst with a zinc oxide/zinc germanate-copper photocatalytic hydrogen production function; also relates to the preparation of the catalyst and the application thereof in the aspect of photocatalytic hydrogen production.
Background
Environmental pollution and energy shortage are major problems restricting the development of human society at present, and the development of new energy to replace the combustion of fossil fuels is imminent. Hydrogen is the most renewable energy source with high combustion heat value, cleanness and environmental protection, and the decomposition of hydrogen to produce water by utilizing the photocatalysis technology has been widely researched. The key point of the technology is to develop and research a novel, efficient and low-cost photocatalyst.
Zn2GeO4Is an important n-type metal oxide semiconductor photocatalyst, and the crystal is made of GeO4Tetrahedron and ZnO4Tetrahedral composition due to presence of severely distorted GeO in the structure4Tetrahedra, i.e. the centre of a Ge atom being offset from the centre of the surrounding O atoms, the GeO4The electric field generated by the tetrahedral dipole moment is beneficial to the separation of the photo-generated electrons and the holes, and the photocatalysis performance of the photo-generated electrons is improved. However, the wider band gap results in Zn2GeO4The hydrogen production method can only absorb ultraviolet light, has low photoelectron utilization rate, and generally utilizes ion doping, composite metal modification and other methods to regulate and control the band gap value, broaden the photoresponse range, reduce the recombination rate of electrons and holes and further improve the hydrogen production activity in order to solve the problem. ZnO has the characteristics of high oxidation-reduction in situ, large exciton binding energy, good chemical stability and the like, is a photocatalytic material with great potential, and is also one of photocatalytic materials with wider research and application.
In order to prepare the photocatalyst which has low cost, wide light absorption range and stability and high efficiency, zinc acetate is taken as the zinc salt, the zinc salt and germanium oxide with different proportions are dissolved in prepared sodium hydroxide solution, the solution is evenly mixed and dissolved and then transferred into a reaction kettle, the zinc oxide/zinc germanate composite photocatalyst is prepared by a one-step hydrothermal method, and finally the zinc oxide/zinc germanate-copper zinc base metal oxide nano photocatalyst is obtained by taking copper acetate as a copper source and adopting a wet chemical method. At present, the zinc oxide/zinc germanate-copper zinc base metal oxide nano photocatalyst prepared by the method and the research on the application of the catalyst in photocatalytic water decomposition and hydrogen evolution are not reported.
The invention firstly adopts a hydrothermal method, controls the proportion of zinc and germanium, and performs mild reaction under solvothermal conditions to obtain the zinc oxide/zinc germanate catalyst, and finally introduces copper atoms through a wet chemical method to obtain the zinc oxide/zinc germanate-copper zinc base metal oxide photocatalyst. The photocatalyst prepared by the method not only widens the light absorption range, but also effectively inhibits the recombination of photo-generated electrons and holes, and shows remarkably improved activity of photocatalytic decomposition of water to produce hydrogen in the photocatalytic process. Has important theoretical guidance and practical significance for solving the problem of energy crisis.
