Effect of the combination of inverse opal photon superficial areaic crystal and heterojunction on active free radicals and its effect on the mechanism of photocatalytic removal of organic pollutants

Abstract

For the inverse opal photocatalyst, hydraulic pressure and other problems caused by the ordered structure of the inverse opal photocatalyst make it difficult for the pollutants to enter the structure quickly and effectively, so the effective control of its structure has become an urgent problem to be solved. Here, multi-heterojunction inverse opal structure catalyst with multi-level branched pore structure is prepared by the sol-gel method. The special three-dimensional dendritic porous structure solves the problem that a pollutant solution is difficult to effectively enter a skeleton with the traditional ordered inverse opal photocatalyst. This structure can also lead to the nanocrystallization of TZS powders, thus promoting the formation of the intermediate product ZrTiO4 and optimizing the heterogeneous interface in the TiO2–ZrO2 heterojunction, thereby successfully constructing the multi-heterostructure and effectively improving the redox ability. Furthermore, by adjusting the loading amount of TZS, the matching of the heterojunction and the inverse opal structure can be effectively controlled, the matching of the photonic band gap and the forbidden bandwidth can be effectively adjusted, and the degradation efficiency is greatly improved. This study provides a new idea for effective collaboration between multi-heterogeneous interfaces and 3D branch fractal structures.
