摘要
Ordered nanocrystalline mesoporous BiVO4 with pure phase was successfully synthesized at 550 degrees C via nanocasting using cubic MCM-48 molecular sieves as hard template. The long-range ordered mesostructure was characterized by XRD, TEM, BET as well as UV-Vis spectrophotometer. Compared with the BiVO4 synthesized by conventional hydrothermal method, the nanocasting mesoporous BiVO4 has the average pore diameter of 16.8nm, pore volume of 0.1 cm(3)/g and specific surface area up to 22.9 m(2)/g. The structure decreases the recombination of optical excitation electrons and holes efficiently, so the mesoporous BiVO4 has an excellent photocatalytic activity in the visible light region. As a result, the photocatalytic efficiency of mesoporous BiVO4 for xanthate in 90min reaches 78%.
