Polymer-assisted hydrothermal synthesis of Bi2S3 nanostructured flowers

Visible-light-driven photocatalysis of heterostructure Ag/Bi2WO6 nanocomposites and their photocatalytic degradation of dye under visible light irradiation

“…The polymer molecules adsorbed on the side walls of these nanocrystals, of which the lateral growth was limited to some degree. Finally, flower-like Bi 2 WO 6 nanostructure was obtained [24][25][26]. For the Ag/Bi 2 WO 6 nanocomposites (Fig.…”

Mini‐Review: Progress on the Controllable Synthesis of Micro/Nanoscale Bi2S3 Functional Materials

“…[ 51 ] Based on a series of experiments, the formation of fabric structure is realized by the mechanism of “splitting crystal growth” through the nanosheet growing on the seeded substrate. Besides, Pilapong and co‐workers [ 52 ] received nanostructured Bi 2 S 3 from the chemical reaction of Bi 2 O 3 and thiocarbohydrazide (CH 6 N 4 S) in acidic solutions that containing selected surface active agents by the hydrothermal method. In the surfactant‐free solution, the products were composed of a number of nanorods in clusters.…”

“…The reaction kinetics can be affected by the numbers of initial nucleations through altering the reaction parameters, so as to cause the oriented growth of crystal structure sorts and further influence the properties of materials, such as the size, shape, structure, and purity of these materials. [29] Up to now, typical structures of Bi 2 S 3 (such as nanowires, [30,31] nanorods, [32][33][34][35] nanotubes, [36][37][38] nanobelts, [39] nanowhiskers, [40] nanoflowers, [41][42][43] snowflakelike, [44] and urchin-like nanospheres [45] ) have been successfully gained via the hydrothermal, [46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59] solvothermal, [60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72] ionic liquid-assisted, [73][74]…”
