摘要
A hydrothermal method was used to prepare beta-AgVO3 nanowire, a photo-assisted deposition (PAD) method was used to prepare Pt/beta-AgVO3 nanowires. beta-AgVO3 and Pt/beta-AgVO3 nanowires were characterized using XRD, BET, UV-Vis spectroscopy, Pl, TEM, and XPS techniques. The results reveal that platinum was present as platinum metal and it is well dispersed on the surface of beta-AgVO3 nanowire. The photocatalytic degradation of atrazine under visible light irradiation was used to measure the photocatalytic performance of the beta-AgVO3 and Pt/beta-AgVO3 nanowires. The photocatalytic activity of Pt/beta-AgVO3 nanowires have higher photocatalytic activity than beta-AgVO3 nanowire. The reason for the high photocatalytic activity of Pt/beta-AgVO3 nanowires may be due to the synergic effect between Pt and beta-AgVO3. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
