Efficiently photocatalytic reduction of carcinogenic contaminant Cr (VI) upon robust AgCl:Ag hollow nanocrystals

Removal of Cr(VI) by 3D TiO 2 -graphene hydrogel via adsorption enriched with photocatalytic reduction

“…Then the Cr(VI) contaminant was further photocatalytic reduced to form Cr(III) [39][40] by photo-induced electrons under UV light irradiation. Meanwhile, the remaining holes would oxidize the water to produce oxygen and hydrogen ions, which could continue to participate in the reduction reaction of Cr(VI) [41] .…”

Hierarchically Z-scheme photocatalyst of Ag@AgCl decorated on BiVO4 (0 4 0) with enhancing photoelectrochemical and photocatalytic performance

“…However, to date, still very few works have been reported on synthesis of the Z-scheme photocatalyst on the highly activity (0 4 0) crystal facet of BiVO 4 with well-defined morphology and excellent performance via a facile and effective approach. In this case, according to our previous investigation, AgCl-based plasmonic photocatalysis materials have been considered as promising photocatalysts owing to its highly efficient assist photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation [20,21].…”

Novel visible-light-responsive Ag/AgCl@MIL-101 hybrid materials with synergistic photocatalytic activity

“…In recent years, plasmonic Ag@AgX (X= Cl [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10], Br [11,12], I [13]) structures, which exhibit high absorption in the visible region, have been investigated for use in photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants and photocatalytic organic transformations. Ag nanoparticles (NPs) formed on the surface of AgX exhibit strong surface plasmon resonance (SPR) in the visible light region.…”
