摘要:

以聚乙烯醇(PEG)为结构导向剂, 利用水热法合成了形貌可控的Ta2O5纳米柱.采用X射线衍射、扫描电镜、透射电镜、漫反射紫外-可见光谱和光致发光光谱对所制备样品进行了表征.考察了结晶时间和Ta2O5/Sr(OH)2摩尔比等合成参数对样品形貌的影响, 并在此基础上对Ta2O5纳米粒可能的生长机理进行了推测.结果表明, 在PEG和Sr(OH)2存在条件下可以合成形貌可控的Ta2O5纳米柱.研究了紫外光下Ta2O5纳米柱降解罗丹明B的光催化性能, 发现Ta2O5的形貌对光催化性能有很大影响, Ta2O5纳米柱的光催化性能与其长度和直径比成线性关系.催化降解反应的表观速率常数最高可达0.156 min-1, 且经多次循环使用后, 样品仍然保持较高的催化性能.

Abstract:

Tantalum pentoxide (Ta2O5) nanorods were hydrothermally synthesized using polyethylene glycol (PEG) as a guiding agent. The nanorods were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopies, and diffuse reflectance ultraviolet-visible and photoluminescence spectroscopies. The effects of crystallization duration and Ta2O5/Sr(OH)2 ratio on the product morphology were investigated, and a growth mechanism was proposed. Phase-pure Ta2O5 nanorods with controlled morphology were formed in the presence of PEG and Sr(OH)2, which was necessary to form the nanorods. Sr(OH)2 induced the surface dissolution and re-growth of Ta2O5. PEG induced the anisotropic growth of Ta2O5 by acting as a capping agent. The products were used to photocatalytically degrade rhodamine B under ultraviolet irradiation. The catalytic activity directly correlated with the length-diameter ratio of the Ta2O5 nanorods. A maximum apparent reaction rate constant of 0.156 min-1 was obtained. The Ta2O5 nanorods were stable during photocatalytic reaction and could be recycled several times without loss of activity.
