AbstractThe strategy to improve the photocatalytic removal efficiencies towards organic pollutants is still a challenge for the novel Sillen–Aurivillius perovskite type Bi4NbO8Cl. Herein, we report carbon-supported TiO2/Bi4NbO8Cl (C-TiO2/Bi4NbO8Cl) heterostructures with enhanced charge separation efficiency, which were fabricated via molten-salt flux process. The carbon-supported TiO2 particles were derived from MXene Ti3C2 precursors, and attached on plate-like Bi4NbO8Cl, acting as electron-traps to achieve supressed recombination of photo-induced charges. The improved charge separation confers C-TiO2/Bi4NbO8Cl heterostructures superior photocatalytic performance with 53% higher than pristine Bi4NbO8Cl, towards rhodamine B removal with the help of photo-induced holes. Moreover, the C-TiO2/Bi4NbO8Cl heterostructures can be expanded to deal with other water contaminants, such as methyl orange, ciprofloxacin and 2,4-dichlorophenol with 44, 25 and 13% promotion, respectively, and thus the study offers a series of efficient photocatalysts for water purification.

Nanostructured transition metal phosphides gathered last years an elevated scientific interest, due to their unique physical-chemical properties. Nickel phosphide nanoparticles, with the controllable crystal structure, from the metal rich tetragonal Ni<sub>12</sub>P<sub>5</sub> to the phosphorous rich hexagonal Ni<sub>2</sub>P, and <i>hcp</i> Ni<sub>2</sub>P decorated r-GO (reduced graphene oxide), nano-hybrid materials have been synthesized via a novel one step organometallic approach in primary-tertiary aliphatic amines mixture. The nanoparticles are monodispersed, with spherical shape and controllable size in the sub-10 nm regime and decorate uniformly the surface of the r-GO, leading to the formation of Ni<sub>2</sub>P/r-GO hybrid materials. The materials were characterized by powder XRD, TEM and Raman spectroscopy and catalytically evaluated for the dibenzothiophene hydrodesulphurization (HDS) reaction. The results show that the role of the tertiary amine is crucial for the phosphidation process and the r-GO is an ideal alternative, to the traditional inorganic ones, support for the immobilization of the catalytically active component, preventing significantly sintering effects.

Three-dimensional and dendritic rutile TiO2 nanorods were successfully fabricated on a Ti foil surface using a one-step acidic hydrothermal method. The TiO2 nanorods were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and optical contact angle testing. The results showed that the nanorods with diameters of 100–500 nm and lengths of 100 nm to 1 μm were obtained on the Ti foil surface. The length and density of the TiO2 nanorods were perfect at the conditions of HCl concentration 0.5 mol/L, temperature 220 °C, and reaction time 12 h. The TiO2 nanorods formed parallel to the consumption of Ti and grew along the (110) direction having a tetragonal rutile crystal. The morphology of the nanorods possessed a three-dimensional structure. The contact angle of the nanorods was only 13 ± 3.1°. Meanwhile, the photocatalytic activities of the TiO2 nanorods were carried out using ultraviolet fluorescence spectrophotometry for the methyl orange detection, and the degradation was found to be about 71.00% ± 2.43%. Thus, TiO2 nanorods can be developed by a one-step acidic hydrothermal method using Ti foil simultaneously as the substrate with a TiO2 source; the TiO2 nanorods exhibited photocatalytic performance while being environment-friendly.
