Photocatalytic Overall Water Splitting over MIL-125(Ti) upon CoPi and Pt Co-catalyst Deposition.

ABSTRACT: Photocatalytic overall water splitting is realized by taking advantage of the semiconductive and porous properties of MIL-125(Ti). CoPi and Pt are deposited into MIL-125(Ti) in two steps. The co-catalysts CoPi and Pt not only act as reactive sites for oxygen and hydrogen evolution, respectively, but also improve the photogenerated charge separation efficiency. The above conclusions are supported by the photoelectrical and photophysical results.

Facet-dependent photocatalytic hydrogen production of metal-organic framework NH2-MIL-125(Ti).

Project description:Facet-dependent catalytic activity of hard materials such as metals and metal oxides is well recognized in previous works. However, it has rarely been established for metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), possibly because the soft crystals of MOFs are conceptually different from the hard solids. In this work, the surface structure of the MOF NH2-MIL-125(Ti) has been investigated by density functional theory (DFT) calculations for the first time. These calculations predict that the {110} facet has a surface energy of 1.18 J m-2, which is superior to those of the {001}, {100} and {111} facets. This difference can be attributed to the larger percentage of exposed metal clusters, which can act as active sites in catalysis. Thus, we have devised and successfully obtained a series of nanoscaled NH2-MIL-125(Ti) MOFs with controlled facets both experimentally and theoretically. The sample containing the {110} facet exhibits the highest photocatalytic hydrogen production activity and apparent quantum yield, which are approximately three times those of the sample with a dominant {111} facet.

Photocatalytic Activities of FeNbO4/NH2-MIL-125(Ti) Composites toward the Cycloaddition of CO2 to Propylene Oxide.

Project description:Photocatalytic utilization of CO2 in the production of value-added chemicals has presented a recent green alternative for CO2 fixation. In this regard, three FeNbO4/NH2-MIL-125(Ti) composites of different mole ratios were synthesized, characterized using Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-Vis DRS), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX). PXRD patterns confirm the co-existence of the parent components in the prepared composites. Moreover, the surface area increased as the mole percent of NH2-MIL-125(Ti) in the composites increased due to the large surface area of NH2-MIL-125(Ti). Prepared composites were investigated for the photocatalytic insertion of CO2 into propylene oxide. FeNbO4(75%)/NH2-MIL-125(Ti)(25%) showed the highest percent yield of 52% compared to the other two composites. Results demonstrate the cooperative mechanism between FeNbO4 and NH2-MIL-125(Ti) and that the reaction proceeded photocatalytically.

NH2-MIL-125(Ti)-derived porous cages of titanium oxides to support Pt-Co alloys for chemoselective hydrogenation reactions.

Project description:The change of atom density induced structural collapse in the transformation process from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to their inorganic counterparts is a major challenge to the achievement of porous hollow structures. Herein, we develop an amino acid-mediated strategy for transformation of NH2-MIL-125(Ti) to successfully synthesize well-defined porous cages of titanium oxides (PCT) due to sheets serving as structural scaffolds. On this basis, PCT supported Pt-based nanoparticles are generated via a similar synthetic route, and are utilized to study the selective hydrogenation of carbonyl groups in ?,?-unsaturated aldehydes, benefiting from the specific structures of PCT and tunable electronic structures of Pt mainly affected by doping with metal species such as Co. In this case, Pt-Co/PCT composites give 96% selectivity for cinnamyl alcohol at 100% conversion of cinnamaldehyde under 0.2 MPa H2 and 80 °C for 3 h. This research would offer a promising strategy for important organic transformations in academic and industrial research to selectively synthesize high-value-added products.

Atomic Layer Deposition of Pt Nanoparticles within the Cages of MIL-101: A Mild and Recyclable Hydrogenation Catalyst.

Project description:We present the in situ synthesis of Pt nanoparticles within MIL-101-Cr (MIL = Materials Institute Lavoisier) by means of atomic layer deposition (ALD). The obtained Pt@MIL-101 materials were characterized by means of N? adsorption and X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) measurements, showing that the structure of the metal organic framework was well preserved during the ALD deposition. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis confirmed the deposition of highly dispersed Pt nanoparticles with sizes determined by the MIL-101-Cr pore sizes and with an increased Pt loading for an increasing number of ALD cycles. The Pt@MIL-101 material was examined as catalyst in the hydrogenation of different linear and cyclic olefins at room temperature, showing full conversion for each substrate. Moreover, even under solvent free conditions, full conversion of the substrate was observed. A high concentration test has been performed showing that the Pt@MIL-101 is stable for a long reaction time without loss of activity, crystallinity and with very low Pt leaching.

A Highly Efficient Composite Catalyst Constructed From NH2-MIL-125(Ti) and Reduced Graphene Oxide for CO2 Photoreduction.

Project description:Substantial consumption of fossil fuels causes an increase in CO2 emissions and intensifies global pollution problems, such as the greenhouse effect. Recently, a new type of ultra-low-density porous material, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), has been developed for the photocatalytic conversion of CO2. Herein, a composite photocatalytic catalyst based on NH2-MIL-125(Ti) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO@NH2-MIL-125) was fabricated through a facile "one-pot" process. The acquired materials were characterized to obtain their structures, morphologies, and optical information. The experimental results showed that methyl formate (MF) was the predominant reaction product, and rGO@NH2-MIL-125 exhibited the highest yield of 1,116 μmol·g-1·h-1, more than twice that of pure MIL-125. The high photoactivity of rGO@NH2-MIL-125 can be ascribed to the effective spatial separation and transfer of photoinduced carriers, largely due to the synergistic effect of amino functionality and rGO incorporation. rGO@NH2-MIL-125 also displayed acceptable repeatability in cyclic runs for CO2 reduction.

A composite of platelet-like orientated BiVO4 fused with MIL-125(Ti): Synthesis and characterization.

Project description:The development of heterojunctions is the current focus of the scientific community as these materials are visible light active and the staggered positioning of their band edges combats electron-hole recombination which is the downside of most photocatalysts. In this work, a two- step hydrothermal synthesis protocol was utilized to fabricate a novel observable-light active material, composed of platelet-like BiVO4 and a titanium-based metal organic framework (MOF) called MIL-125(Ti). The tuning of specific morphologies, such as platelet-like in BiVO4, provides the exposure of most reactive facets which are more reactive towards photooxidation of organics in water, thus increasing their efficiency. The as-synthesized heterojunction was characterized by Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning transmission microscopy (SEM), X-Ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectra (UV-Vis DRS), X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and photoluminescence (PL) spectra. The formation of the heterojunction lead to a positive shift of the 3-2 Bi:Ti valence band (VB) (1.78?eV) when compared to 1.27?eV VB position of BiVO4. The PL and photoelectrochemical measurements revealed that the heterojunction photocatalyst designated 3-2 Bi-Ti demonstrated inhibited recombination rate (platelet-like BiVO4 > 3-2 Bi:Ti (PM) > MIL-125?>?1-1 Bi:Ti > 2-3 Bi:Ti > 3-2 Bi:Ti) and highly efficient interfacial charge shuttle between platelet-like BiVO4 and MIL-125(Ti) through the formed n-n junction.

Photocatalytic Overall Water Splitting by SrTiO3 with Surface Oxygen Vacancies.

Project description:Strontium Titanate has a typical perovskite structure with advantages of low cost and photochemical stability. However, the wide bandgap and rapid recombination of electrons and holes limited its application in photocatalysis. In this work, a SrTiO3 material with surface oxygen vacancies was synthesized via carbon reduction under a high temperature. It was successfully applied for photocatalytic overall water splitting to produce clean hydrogen energy under visible light irradiation without any sacrificial reagent for the first time. The photocatalytic overall water splitting ability of the as-prepared SrTiO3-C950 is attributed to the surface oxygen vacancies that can make suitable energy levels for visible light response, improving the separation and transfer efficiency of photogenerated carriers.

Fabrication of easy separable and reusable MIL-125(Ti)/MIL-53(Fe) binary MOF/CNT/Alginate composite microbeads for tetracycline removal from water bodies.

Project description:In this investigation, we aimed to fabricate easy separable composite microbeads for efficient adsorption of tetracycline (TC) drug. MIL-125(Ti)/MIL-53(Fe) binary metal organic framework (MOF) was synthetized and incorporated with carbon nanotube (CNT) into alginate (Alg) microbeads to form MIL-125(Ti)/MIL-53(Fe)/CNT@Alg composite microbeads. Various tools including FTIR, XRD, SEM, BET, Zeta potential and XPS were applied to characterize the composite microbeads. It was found that the specific surface area of MIL-125(Ti)/MIL-53(Fe)/CNT@Alg microbeads was 273.77 m2/g. The results revealed that the adsorption of TC augmented with rising CNT proportion up to 15 wt% in the microbeads matrix. In addition, the adsorption process followed the pseudo-second-order and well-fitted to Freundlich and Langmuir models with a maximum adsorption capacity of 294.12 mg/g at 25 ◦C and pH 6. Furthermore, thermodynamic study clarified that the TC adsorption process was endothermic, random and spontaneous. Besides, reusability test signified that MIL-125(Ti)/MIL-53(Fe)/CNT@Alg composite microbeads retained superb adsorption properties for six consecutive cycles, emphasizing its potentiality for removing of pharmaceutical residues.

Overall water splitting by Pt/g-C3N4 photocatalysts without using sacrificial agents.

Project description:We report the direct splitting of pure water by light-excited graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) modified with Pt, PtO x , and CoO x as redox cocatalysts, while pure g-C3N4 is virtually inactive for overall water splitting by photocatalysis. The novelty is in the selective creation of both H2 and O2 cocatalysts on surface active sites of g-C3N4via photodeposition triggering the splitting of water for the simultaneous evolution of H2 and O2 gases in a stoichiometric ratio of 2?:?1, irradiated with light, without using any sacrificial reagents. The photocatalyst was stable for 510 hours of reaction.

Vapor-Phase Photocatalytic Overall Water Splitting Using Hybrid Methylammonium Copper and Lead Perovskites.

Project description:Films or powders of hybrid methylammonium copper halide perovskite exhibit photocatalytic activity for overall water splitting in the vapor phase in the absence of any sacrificial agent, resulting in the generation of H2 and O2, reaching a maximum production rate of 6 ?mol H2 × g cat-1h-1 efficiency. The photocatalytic activity depends on the composition, degreasing all inorganic Cs2CuCl2Br2 perovskite and other Cl/Br proportions in the methylammonium hybrids. XRD indicates that MA2CuCl2Br2 is stable under irradiation conditions in agreement with the linear H2 production with the irradiation time. Similar to copper analogue, hybrid methylammonium lead halide perovskites also promote the overall photocatalytic water splitting, but with four times less efficiency than the Cu analogues. The present results show that, although moisture is strongly detrimental to the photovoltaic applications of hybrid perovskites, it is still possible to use these materials as photocatalysts for processes requiring moisture due to the lack of relevance in the photocatalytic processes of interparticle charge migration.
