压电化学效应纳米棒制备及机械催化振动降解染料研究

Under illumination, photocatalyst materials create electrons and holes and further generate the strong oxidant free radicals which can degrade dye. Similarly, under vibration, piezoelectric materials can also create electrical charges and further generate the strong oxidant free radicals to degrade dye. The new effect is called “piezoelectrochemical effect”, which can be considered as the product of piezoelectric effect and electrochemical effect. The new catalytic technology is called “mechanocatalysis”. Investigation on the fabricating piezoelectric nanofibers and the application of piezoelectrochemical effect for the new catalytic technology—mechanocatalysis, is useful in the field of clean-energy and environmental protection, such as vibration-decomposing organic dyes in wastewater, vibration-charging chemical cell, vibration splitting water for hydrogen production. In this project, we plan to synthesize the typical 1-D piezoelectric ZnO, Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 and BaTiO3; nano-fibers via a hydrothermal method and systematically study the piezoelectrochemical effect for the application in mechanocatalytically decomposing organic dyes wastewater under vibration. We also plan to investigate the dependence of the concentration of electrolyte solution, pH value and the addition of catalyst and optimize these parameters and conditions to obtain a high degradation ratio of >80%. The generation process of intermediate product-- strong oxidant free radicals will also studied to understand the physical mechanism of piezoelectrochemical coupling. Some piezoelectric nano-materials such as ZnO, often possess excellent photocatalytic properties. We also plan to combin photocatalysis with mechanocatalysis to realize high degradation ratio. The execution of this project can provide academic reference and scientific basis for the design of novel piezoelectrochemical effect and the preparation of novel mechanocatalyst.
