In this paper, nesquehonite whiskers were synthesized by low-temperature aqueous solution method, and the impacts of reaction temperature, reaction time and surfactant dosage and other factors on the maximum whisker length and high aspect ratios of nesquehonite whiskers were also investigated. Results showed that under the conditions that the reaction temperature was 40 – 50 °C the reaction time was 50 – 60min and the amount of surfactant dosage was 1% (by mass), high aspect ratios nesquehonite whisker products can be synthesized. On this basis, growth mechanism of the nesquehonite whiskers was discussed.

A facile and green method was utilized to synthesize core-shelled Zn / ZnO microspheres by boiling Zn microparticles in water for improving the photocatalytic activity of ZnO . The synthesized Zn / ZnO core-shells were investigated by means of scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffractometer and photoluminescence spectrometer, respectively. The morphology analysis showed that the metallic Zn core was about 6 μm in diameter while the ZnO shell was about 600 nm in thickness. Compared to ZnO nanoparticles, the core-shelled Zn / ZnO microspheres exhibited improved photocatalytic activity in degrading methyl orange in water. Our results suggest that the metal–semiconductor junction formed at the Zn / ZnO interface is responsible for the enhanced photocatalytic activity of ZnO .
