Abstract

ZnO/Co3O4 materials with Type-I (straddling gap) heterojunction structure and ZnO/NiO materials with Type-II (staggered gap) heterojunction structure were prepared by electrostatic spinning-oxidation method. The influence of the type of heterojunction on the system was investigated by structure characterization and physical phase analysis. The results show that 550 °C was the optimal oxidation temperature for material preparation. The oxide particles can self-assemble to form fibers under this condition. The effect of photocatalytic degradation of humic acid in the system further proved that the materials with Type-II heterojunction structure possess higher degradation ability and cycle stability than Type-I heterojunction materials.
