摘要

In this study, the NiO/Ag3PO4 heterostructure was synthesized by ultrasonic-assisted precipitation for the degradation of organic pollutants. The morphology, structure, optical and electrical properties of NiO/Ag3PO4 were characterized by XRD, SEM, PL, EIS and UV–Vis DRS. After 50 min irradiation with 70 W metal halide lamp, the degradation efficiency of MO, methylene blue (MB) and Rhodamine B (RhB) by NiO/Ag3PO4 was 95.22%, 98.56% and 98.57%. The experiment of free radical capture showed that h+ was the main active species and O2 was the secondary active species. After four cycles of degradation experiments, the degradation efficiencies of NiO/Ag3PO4 for MO, MB and RhB still reached 82.29%, 86.45% and 87.21%, indicating that the composite material has a strong degradation ability and certain stability at the same time.
