Pompon Dahlia‐like Cu2O/rGO Nanostructures for Visible Light Photocatalytic H2 Production and 4‐Chlorophenol Degradation
Abstract
Hierarchical Cu<sub>2</sub>O nanospheres with a Pompon Dahlia‐like morphology were prepared by a one‐pot synthesis employing electrostatic self‐assembly. Nanocomposite analogues were also prepared in the presence of reduced graphene oxide (rGO). Photophysical properties of the hierarchical Cu<sub>2</sub>O nanospheres and Cu<sub>2</sub>O/rGO nanocomposite were determined, and their photocatalytic applications evaluated for photocatalytic 4‐chlorophenol (4‐CP) degradation and H<sub>2</sub> production. Introduction of trace (<1 wt %) rGO improves the apparent quantum efficiency (AQE) at 475 nm of hierarchical Cu<sub>2</sub>O for H<sub>2 </sub>production from 2.23 % to 3.35 %, giving an increase of evolution rate from 234 μmol.g<sup>−1</sup>.h<sup>−1</sup> to 352 μmol.g<sup>−1</sup>.h<sup>−1</sup> respectively. The AQE for 4‐CP degradation also increases from 52 % to 59 %, with the removal efficiency reaching 95 % of 10 ppm 4‐CP within 1 h. Superior performance of the hierarchical Cu<sub>2</sub>O/rGO nanocomposite is attributable to increased visible light absorption, reflected in a greater photocurrent density. Excellent catalyst photostability for >6 h continuous reaction is observed.
