Pt nanoparticles（NPs） of different contents（0.5 wt%,1 wt% and 2 wt%） were subsequently deposited on the PbW O4 microcrystals,producing robust Pt/PbW O4 composite microcrystals. The PbW O4 microcrystals and Pt/PbW O4 photocatalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction,N2 sorption measurements,scanning electron microscopy,transmission electron microscopy,and X-ray photoelectron,photoluminescence,Fourier-transform infrared,and ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopies. The photocatalytic performances of the catalysts were evaluated by the consecutive photocatalytic degradation of acid orange II dye. The Pt/PbW O4 composite microcrystals exhibited high photocatalytic activity and stability. The deposition of Pt NPs produced surface plasmon resonance（SPR）,which induced a large visible light absorption. A Pt NP content of 1-2 wt% resulted in an ~2 times increase in photocatalytic activity,compared with the activity of Pt/PbW O4. The crystal structure and high crystallinity of PbW O4 resulted in its favorable photocatalytic property,and the SPR effect of the Pt NPs promoted visible light harvesting. The Pt NPs also enhanced the separation of photo-generated electrons and holes,which further promoted the photocatalytic reaction.展开更多

Herein, we report a designer crystallization process for nanosized zeolite omega crystals based on the relationship between the crystallization time and temperature in the Arrhenius equation. Compared to the conventional hydrothermal synthesis of zeolite omega(72 h at room temperature and 240 h at 100℃, MAZ-100), the crystallization of zeolite omega presented in this work only requires a very short time interval(5 h at 180℃, MAZ-180). Physicochemical characterizations, including XRD, SEM, N2 sorption isotherms, and 27 Al MAS NMR show that the product of zeolite omega(MAZ-180) has good crystallinity and uniform nanocrystals. More importantly, after the loading of Pt nanoparticles(0.5 wt%), the Pt/H-MAZ-180 catalyst exhibits higher isomer selectivity and lower cracking selectivity than those of the Pt/H-MAZ-100 catalyst in the hydroisomerization of n-dodecane. These results suggest the potential applications of these omega nanocrystals as supporting catalyst compounds in industrial processes.展开更多
