Preparation of MoS_2/TiO_2 Composite Catalyst and Its Photocatalytic Hydrogen Production Activity under UV Irradiation

为了研究复合光催化剂在光催化中的制氢效率,采用水热法制备了Mo S2纳米片,然后通过水热法在Mo S2纳米片上负载了TiO_2纳米颗粒,形成了Mo S2/TiO_2异质结复合催化剂。采用冷场发射扫描电子显微镜(FE-SEM)、透射电子显微镜(TEM)、X射线衍射(XRD)、紫外-可见吸收光谱(UV-Vis)、拉曼光谱(Raman),X射线光电子能谱(XPS)对材料的结构和光学性能表征并进行分析。通过光催化制氢测试对光催化剂进行评价,实验结果表明,在波长为365 nm的紫外光照射下,最高光催化制氢速率为1004μmol·h-1·g-1,对应的催化剂的Mo S2含量为30%,其催化速率远大于单一的Mo S2和TiO_2,表明Mo S2/TiO_2复合催化剂在紫外光照下能显著提高光催化产氢性能。基于Mo S2/TiO_2复合光催化剂优越的光催化产氢性能,本文对复合光催化剂的产氢机理做了研究和分析。

To study the activity of a composite photocatalyst for photocatalytic hydrogen production, we prepared and loaded MoS2 nanosheets with TiO2 nanoparticles using a hydrothermal method, thus forming a MoS2/TiO2 heterojunction composite catalyst. The structural and optical properties of the catalyst were characterized and analyzed by field-emission scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, UV-Vis absorption spectra, Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The activity of the photocatalyst was evaluated by its photocatalytic hydrogen production rate. The corresponding MoS2 content of the catalyst was found to be 30%, and upon the exposure to 365nm UV light, a high photocatalytic hydrogen production rate of 1004 μmo1-1.h-1.g-1 was obtained. The catalytic rate is much greater than that obtained with MoS2 or mio2 catalysts. The high hydrogen production rate indicated that the use of a MoS2/mio2 composite catalyst can significantly improve the UV-induced photocatalytic hydrogen production performance. Because of the excellent photocatalytic hydrogen production performance of the MoS2/TiO2 composite, we studied and analyzed the hydrogen production mechanism.
