A series of BiOI/MIL-121(Al) hybrid photocatalysts were prepared by a facile hydrothermal method, showing good performance for the visible-light-driven degradation of tetracycline. The hydrogen bond induced by carboxyl in MIL-121 promotes tetracycline adsorption and photocatalytic degradation process. Photo-induced holes and superoxide radicals are identified as the main active species for the photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline over BiOI/MIL-121 composites.
A series of BiOI/MIL-121(Al) hybrid photocatalysts has been prepared by a facile hydrothermal method. Two-dimensional BiOI sheets are intimately anchored on rod-like MIL-121 due to the electrostatic and coordination effects between Bi3+ and carboxyl. The BiOI/MIL-121(Al) hybrid exhibits favorable perfor- mances for visible-light-driven degradation of tetracycline. The degradation performance of the optimal sample BM-20 is more than twice as that of pure BiOI. Apart from the close contacts between BiOI and MIL-121, the hydrogen bond induced by carboxyl in MIL-121 promotes the adsorption of tetracycline, which is also conducive to the photocatalytic degradation process. Moreover, results show that photo-induced holes and superoxide radicals are both the main active species for the photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline over BiOI/MIL-121 composites. This work would inspire the materials design with specific functional groups for efficient (photo)catalytic reaction. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
