摘要
Bismuth oxide carbonate was synthesized from bismuth nitrate and potassium carbonate and then converted to phase pure beta-Bi2O3 form by means of thermal decomposition. X-ray diffraction, HR-SEM, diffuse reflectance UV-vis and photocatalytic degradation studies were carried out on both the samples. Bi2O2CO3 exhibited a wide band gap of 3.406(5) eV while beta-Bi2O3 had a lesser band gap of 2.589(3) eV. beta-Bi2O3 degrades a higher amount of methyl orange because of its lesser band gap and its optimum loading was 0.1 g in 50 ml of 10 ppm solution. After photocatalytic degradation Bi2O2CO3 remains in the stable form whereas beta-Bi2O3 changes to Bi2O2CO3. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
