The as-prepared Ag3PO4/Ag/Ag2Mo2O7 nanocomposite included Ag3PO4 nanoparticles (NPs) as well as Ag NPs assembling on the surface of Ag2Mo2O7 nanowires. Under visible light irradiation (λ〉420 nm), the Ag3PO4/Ag/Ag2Mo2O7 com- posite degraded rhodamine B (Rh B) efficiently and showed much higher photocatalytic efficiency than pure AgaPO4, Ag2Mo2O7, or Ag3PO4/Ag2Mo2O7. It was elucidated that the excellent photocatalytic performance of Ag3PO4/Ag/Ag2Mo2O7 for the degradation of Rh B under visible light could be ascribed to the high specific surface area, the extended absorption in the visible light region resulting from the Ag3PO4/Ag loading, and the effi- cient separation of photogenerated electrons and holes through the ternary heterostrucure composed of Ag3PO4, Ag and Ag2Mo2O7.展开更多

However, photocorrosion limits its practical application. Therefore, it is very urgent to find a solution to improve the light corrosion resistance of Ag3PO4. Herein, the Z-scheme WO3(H2O)0.333/Ag3PO4 composites are successfully prepared through microwave hydrothermal and simple stirring. The WO3(H2O)0.333/Ag3PO4 composites are characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and UV-Vis spectroscopy. In the degradation of organic pollutants, WO3(H2O)0.333/Ag3PO4 composites exhibit excellent performance under visible light. This is mainly attributed to the synergy of WO3(H2O)0.333 and Ag3PO4. Especially, the photocatalytic activity of 15%WO3(H2O)0.333/Ag3PO4 is the highest, and the methylene blue can be completely degraded in 4 min. In addition, the stability of the composites is also greatly enhanced. After five cycles of testing, the photocatalytic activity of 15%WO3(H2O)0.333/Ag3PO4 is not obviously decreased. However, the degradation efficiency of Ag3PO4 was only 20.2%. This indicates that adding WO3(H2O)0.333 can significantly improve the photoetching resistance of Ag3PO4. Finally, Z-scheme photocatalytic mechanism is investigated.展开更多
