Abstract
n-type (AgIn)(x)Zn(2(1-x))S2/p-type Ag2S nanocomposites with 10%, 20%, and 30% Ag2S loading were successfully synthesized via the simple solvothermal and sol gel methods. The as-prepared nanocomposites were characterized, and their visible light photocatalytic reductions were tested for detoxification of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)). The results showed only 20 mg of the as-prepared nanocomposites could reduce 100 mL of 20 ppm potassium dichromate by almost 100% in less than 90 min without adding any hole scavenger agents and pH adjustment (pH = 7). The good photocatalytic reduction was related to the narrower bandgap of (AgIn)(x)Zn(2(1-x))S2 solid solution because of the hybridized orbitals of Ag, In, Zn, and S and low recombination rate of photogenerated electron and hole pairs due to the effectiveness of p-type Ag2S and n-type (AgIn)(x)Zn(2(1-x))S2 nanoheterojunctions. This work not only gives a contribution to the creation of visible light photocatalysis for wide-bandgap semiconductors, but also extends our technological viewpoints in designing highly efficient metal sulfide photocatalyst. To the best of our knowledge, this work is the first finding of a high photocatalytic reduction of hexavalent chromium under visible light illumination by simultaneously using both concepts of p-n nanoheterojunction and solid solution in our photocatalyst design. In this present work, these concepts were used to replace the use of hole scavenger agents, which were commonly used by many other works to retard the recombination rate of photoinduced electron and hole pairs for photodegradation of hexavalent chromium.
