摘要
Bi2-xLuxWO6 (0 <= x <= 1) photocatalysts were prepared by solid-state reaction at 1000 degrees C. The pristine Bi2WO6 (BWO) possesses the best photocatalytic Rhodamine B degradation performance under UV-light illumination. BWO reaches an efficiency of nearly 90% in 160 min, the photocatalytic efficiency decreases with substituting Bi with Lu which is a fact attributable to the specific surfaces which decrease when the composition x increases due to the increasing crystallite sizes (around 2 mm) of the Bi2-xLuxWO6 (BLWO) phases and the Bi1.2Lu0.8WO6 exhibited the lowest efficiency of 37%. Free radical trapping experiments showed that holes and the superoxide ions are the active species which predominate the photocatalytic reaction. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
