摘要

Silver phosphate (Ag3PO4) is a promising visible-light photocatalyst but suffers from fast charge recombination and serious photocorrosion, while MIL-88A(Fe) faces stability issues and Fe3+ leaching. In this work, a series of MIL-88A@Ag3PO4 composites with rod-like (r-MIL-88A), spindle-like (s-MIL-88A), and diamond-like (d-MIL-88A) morphologies were prepared via an in situ growth method. The rod-like r-MIL-88A@6%Ag3PO4 showed the optimal performance, with an initial concentration of phenol of 100 ppm, degradation efficiency of 99.7% under visible light with H2O2 concentration 100 ppm. Fe3+ leaching remained below 0.08 mg/L, phenol removal efficiency from 99.7% to around 83%, while demonstrating remarkable reusability of the composite even after five consecutive cycles. Comprehensive characterization techniques, including X-ray diffraction(XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy(XPS), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller(BET), Ultraviolet–Visible spectroscopy(UV–VIS), Photoluminescence (PL), Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy(EIS), transient photocurrent and photoelectrochemical analysis confirmed the the successful coupling of MIL-88A and Ag3PO4 alongwith efficient photogenerated charge separation and transfer efficiency. Radical scavenging experiments and electron spin resonance (ESR) confirmed that the main active species were photogenerated holes(h⁺), superoxide radicals(·O2⁻), and hydroxyl radicals (·OH), and in situ formed Ag⁰ served as an electron transfer bridge. This study provides a facile and simple strategy for developing highly active and stable metal–organic frameworks (MOF)-based composites for the purpose of remediating organic wastewater.
