摘要:
The oxidation of terasil blue dye (TB) has been achieved by photocatalysis under UV light using well organized nanotubes of Ti/TiO2 doped with ruthenium (Ru/Ti/TiO2). Ru/Ti/TiO2 were fabricated by Ti anodization followed by impregnation with 0.04, 0.08 and 0.16 wt% of RuCl3 center dot xH(2)O or KRuO4 as precursor salts. Ti foil anodization was carried out in non-aqueous solutions and in aqueous solutions at pH 7 and pH 12.6. Scanning electron microscopy analyses revealed a morphology of well-defined, organized nanotubes of TVTiO(2)and Ru/Ti/TiO2. The ruthenium was evenly distributed over Ti/TiO2 surface. Cluster formation was also observed for 0.16 wt% Ru loading. The X-ray diffraction spectra showed anatase and rutile phase in pure Ti/TiO(2)and Ru/TVTiO2 nanotubes. Therefore, ruthenium doping did not modify the crystalline phase of Ti/TiO2. Raman spectra did not reveal the rutile phase of TiO2 in the composites which is attributed to the laser characteristics used. The optical band gap energies of the Ti/TiO2 and Ru/TVTiO2 nanotube arrays showed that ruthenium-doping on Ti/TiO2 had slight effect on the band-gap energy. A decrease in the band gap energy of pure Ti/TiO2 (E-g= 2.88 eV) was observed by Ru loading of 0.04 wt% in the Ti/TiO(2 )nanotube arrays (E-g = 2.60 eV). The kinetic rate constant of the photocatalytic oxidation of TB, using 0.08 wt% Ru load, was 1.56 and 1.39 times of that on Ti/TiO2 composite (0.01 min(-1)) synthetized at pH 12.6 impregnated in RuCl3 (0.0156 min(-1)) and KRuO4 (0.0139 min(-1)) solutions, respectively. Nevertheless, the highest rate constant value of TB degradation (87.8%) was 0.0172 min(-1) using 0.16 wt% Ru loading on Ti/TiO2 composite synthetized at pH 7 impregnated in RuCl3; this represents 1.15 times of that on Ti/TiO2 composite (0.0150 min(-1); 81.4% color removal) synthetized under the same conditions.
