Low temperature preparation of flower-like BiOCl film and its photocatalytic activity

Facile Fabrication of BiOI/BiOCl Immobilized Films With Improved Visible Light Photocatalytic Performance

“…Additionally, powder catalysts are hard to be separated and recovered because they are easily dispersed into solution when used in pollutants degradation (Zhao et al, 2015 ). Unlike powder catalysts, immobilized photocatalysts become more promising in practical application for easy separation and high reusability (Liu X. et al, 2012 ). Therefore, BiOI/BiOCl film is of great advantage in practical organic pollutants degradation.…”

Slow-releasing Cl- to prepare BiOCl thin film on Bi plate and its photocatalytic properties

“…For instance, the reported synthesis methods of BiOCl film include redox process [3,4], hydrolysis route [6], acidolysis route [7]and so on. Our group also have developed some methods, Liu et al [8] obtained the BiOCl film coated on Ti surface by the alcoholysiscoating method. Zhang et al [9] prepared the BiOCl film through a two-steps electrochemical method, in which Ti substrate was used.…”

Photocatalytic Degradation of Methyl Orange over BiOClxBr1-x (0 x 1) Solid Solutions

“…In conventional photocatalytic material , TiO 2 is widely noted because of its non-toxic, good chemical stability, strong oxidation ability, etc. However, TiO 2 has a wide band gap ( about 3.2eV), the absorption wavelength of it is less than 387nm, only can use the energy of ultraviolet light that is 4 % of sunlight, and response to a narrow range, which greatly limits its practical application [4][5][6].…”
