摘要:
The present invention combines the advantages of fabrication of semiconductor heterostructure (Ag3PO4—WO3) with plasmonic metals (Pt and Ag) with optical interference to optimize the visible light photo response of plasmonic metals deposited semiconductor (Pt—Ag/Ag3PO4—WO3) for visible light assisted H2 generation utilizing the aqueous bio-alcohols. Crystalline Ag3PO4 and WO3 nanofibers were synthesized by microwave and electrospinning methods. Three different WO3 nanofibers composition (5, 10 and 15 wt. %) were used to obtain Ag3PO4/WO3 nanocomposite heterostructures, which are effective visible light active photo catalysts. Further, a simple, enviro-friendly, and cost-effective biogenic synthesis method have been achieved using Salvia officinalis extract to decorate Pt and Ag metal nanoparticles on the surface of Ag3PO4—WO3 composites. Presence of bioactive agents in the extract are responsible for the Pt and Ag3PO4 reduction and for prevention of the Pt nanoparticles from aggregation in aqueous medium.
摘要:
The present disclosure describes hybrid binary catalysts (HBCs) that can be used as engine aftertreatment catalyst compositions. The HBCs provide solutions to the challenges facing emissions control. In general, the HBCs include a porous primary catalyst and a secondary catalyst. The secondary catalyst partial coats the surfaces (e.g., the internal porous surface and/or the external surface) of the primary catalyst resulting in a hybridized composition. The synthesis of the HBCs can provide a primary catalyst whose entire surface, or portions thereof, can be coated with the secondary catalyst.
摘要:
Described herein are heterogeneous materials comprising a p-type semiconductor comprising two metal oxide compounds of the same metal in two different oxidation states and an n-type semiconductor having a deeper valence band than the p-type semiconductor valence bands, wherein the semiconductor types are in ionic communication with each other. The heterogeneous materials enhance photocatalytic activity.

摘要:
RGO is coupled with AgP in a novel one-pot photo-reduction technique in presence of a sacrificial agent like dry ethanol. Tests of the collected dirty green semiconducting towards adosoptive photodegradation of textile dyes showed that 4 wt. % RGO-AgP can degrade 100, 76, 98.57, 67.88, 69.92% of RhB, Rh6G, MB, CR and MO, respectively within only 5 min under VISL illumination over 1.5 g/L of catalyst.
摘要:
A photocatalyst comprising silver orthophosphate (Ag3PO4) is used for selective and exhaustive conversion of alcohols into their corresponding carbonyl compounds; namely, benzyl alcohol, 4-methoxy benzyl alcohol and/or cinnamyl alcohol with >99% yield. The reactions were carried out in double distilled water at room temperature and pressure under sunlight-type excitation. Oxidation of alcohols is selective and Ag3PO4 may be active for a variety of other essential oxidation reactions.
