Abstract
T-Ag/ZnO nanoflowers were successfully fabricated via two steps methods on zinc foil. The chemical composition of norfloxacin was investigated by FTIR spectroscopy. The morphology, composition, and structural and optical properties of the as-synthesized materials were characterized. The results show that triangular silver nanoplates exhibit unique surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorption spectra, and the absorption spectrum range of ZnO nanoflowers are effectively expanded by coating triangular silver nanoplates. The photocatalytic degradation of norfloxacin activity can be obviously improved because of a synergetic effect and unique SPR of triangular silver nanoplates in the T-Ag/ZnO nanoflowers under visible light. In addition, the possible mechanism for T-Ag/ZnO nanoflowers for the photodegradation of norfloxacin are discussed. The stability of T-Ag/ZnO nanoflowers are also studied.
