The photocatalyUc activity of the samples was evaluated by photodegrading rhodamine B (RhB) under visible light irradiation. The main reactive species and possible photocatalytic mechanism were also discussed. As a result, the Ag3PO4-AgBr-PTh composite loaded on Na2SiO3 exhibited enhanced photocatalytic activity for RhB compared with Ag3PO4 under visible-light irradiation. Additionally, it was demonstrated that the hole (h+) and superoxide radical (·O2-) were the major reactive species involving in the RhB degradation. PTh played vital role for the enhanced photocatalytic activity of Ag3PO4-AgBr-PTh-Na2SiO3 composite, which offered an electron transfer expressway and accelerated the transfer of the electrons from the CB of AgBr into Ag3PO4. This work could provide a new perspective for the synthesis of Ag3PO4-based composites and the improvement of photocatalytic activity of Ag3PO4.展开更多

In this work, the effects of Na2SiO3 on the electrochemical behavior of the AZ31B Mg alloy in MgSO4-Mg(NO3)2 composite solution[0.14 mol/L MgSO4,1.86 mol/L Mg(NO3)2] were investigated. Electrochemical tests were carried out using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, galvanostatic discharge, and linear sweep voltammograms. The results indicate that the impedance value increases by nearly fourfold, and the delayed time decreases from 2.1 s to 0.6s. Battery perfoniiance test reveals that the addition of Na2SiO3 significantly improves the discharge specific capacity of Mg-MnO2. The surface morphology and composition of corrosion products from Mg alloys were studied by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and Fourier translonn infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), respectively. The SEM images of the AZ31B Mg alloys in composite solution with or without Na2SiO3 additive have an evident distinction due to the ionnation of new insoluble compound.FTIR result confirms that the corrosion products accumulated on the alloy surface in the electrolyte containing Na2SiO3 are mainly composed of Mg(OH)2, MgCO3, and MgSiO3.展开更多
