Popis: | In this paper, we report the synthesis of the BiOBr/BiOCl/PANI ternary nanocomposite using a simple co-precipitation method. The modified photocatalyst produced was characterized by the FT-IR, FE-SEM equipped with EDS (as a Map), TEM, XRD, PL, Raman, and UV–Vis DRS analytical techniques. The synergetic effect of PANI and surface defects in nanoplates can prolong the recombination rate of photo-generated charge carriers. Thus, photocatalytic and photoelectrochemical activities of samples have been studied. Then, the methyl orange (MO) degradation performance of PANI/BiOBr and BiOBr/BiOCl/PANI was investigated under visible light irradiation. The lamp used to simulate sunlight in this photocatalytic study process was power down white light (5-W LED), less reported. The results got exhibited that the as-prepared BiOBr/BiOCl/PANI (90:10, Bi:PANI) nanocomposite showed a higher photocatalytic efficiency. Based on the scavenger tests, ·O2− played a significant role in the degradation of MO. The connection between BiOBr, BiOCl, and PANI improved photocatalytic activity, which enhanced migration rate of the photo-generated electrons besides limiting the recombination of photo-generated electron–hole pairs. |
