In situ synthesis of flexible Bi7O9I3/carbon paper with enhanced photocatalytic activity

doi:10.1016/j.jmst.2023.07.076

Abstract

Abstract: Although Bi₇O₉I₃ is an oxygen-rich bismuth oxyiodide with higher photocatalytic activity than BiOI, its applicability for photocatalytic oxidation is limited by the rapid recombination of photogenerated carriers and poor reusability. Depositing Bi₇O₉I₃ on flexible macro-sized carbonaceous materials is a promising approach for promoting photogenerated electron migration and improving reusability. In this study, a composite consisting of Bi₇O₉I₃ supported on graphitic carbon paper (Bi₇O₉I₃-CP) was synthesized via the in situ transformation of a BiOI-deposited carbon paper precursor (BiOI-CP). The as-prepared Bi₇O₉I₃-CP exhibited higher visible-light-driven photocatalytic activity than both Bi₇O₉I₃ and BiOI-CP precursor for phenol removal. The improved photocatalytic activity of Bi₇O₉I₃-CP was attributed to its hierarchical structure and promoted carrier separation, as revealed by photoluminescence, pore structure, and reactive radical analyses. Moreover, owing to its macroscale size and flexibility, the Bi₇O₉I₃-CP composite could be easily operated and reused, which are favorable for practical applications.
