Recently, tribocatalysis driven by mechanical energy has been developed by rubbing two kinds of different materials. In this work, we firstly demonstrated that the friction of the single material also could initiate the tribocatalysis for degrading organic dyes. Under magnetic stirring, the multi-size granular polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) particles were triboelectrically charged, among which the collision between large and small particles would cause high energy electrons on large particles to transfer to small ones. These triboelectric charges on PTFE particles could react with adsorbed oxygen molecules or water to generate reactive oxygen species, and then promoted the degradation process of organic dyes together with oxidant holes. We further investigated the experimental parameters, such as stirring speed, size and quantity of stirring bar, to optimize the tribocatalytic performance. What's more, the PTFE tribocatalysis possessed high durability for multiple recycling runs with 90% degradation efficiency of Rhodamine B, as well as well universality for eliminating other pollutants. Finally, we proposed a plausible tribocatalytic mechanism of multi-size granular PTFE according to the detected reactive oxygen species and the determined intermediates. This study provides new insights into tribocatalysis, and demonstrates that the single material with different particle sizes can also be used as catalyst to drive tribocatalytic process. |
