ZFNPs were prepared by a co-precipitation process and then characterized with transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and BET surface area. Using such ZFNPs as catalyst, the degradation of BTA was investigated. Due to the high catalytic activity of ZFNPs, PE-Fenton like process showed efficient degradation of BTA. The influencing factors such as pH, dosage of ZFNPs, applied potential and initial concentration of BTA were systematically investigated. Under the optimum conditions, 91.2% of BTA was removed after 180 rain treatment.展开更多

The prepared ZFHs are assembled by a large number of small nanoparticles with sizes of 15-20 nm, and many mesopores exist among these nanoparticles. The samples annealed at 500-550℃ exhibit a single cubic spinel structure, while higher annealing temperature leads to the formation of hexagonal ZnO and rhombohedral α-Fe2O3 secondary phases. The size of the assembled nanoparticles increases with the increase in annealing temperature. Novel magnetic transformation from paramagnetic to ferrimagnetic is induced by the reduction of annealing temperature and the saturation magnetization significantly increases from 2.3 to 13.5 A·m^2/kg. The effect of the formation of hollow sphere structure on the redistribution of Fe^3+ and Zn^2+ in the spinel structure was studied.展开更多

An average particle size of ~10 nm and a high-specific surface area of~112.9 m2/g were observed for the ultrafine ZnFe2O4nanoparticles Owing to the synergistic effect of ultrafine particle size, the full utilization of the visible light region and high conduction band(CB) position, ultrafine ZnFe2O4photocatalyst displayed an efficient photocatalytic CO2reduction under visible light illumination. Besides, the ultrafine ZnFe2O4photocatalyst showed high production selectivity for CH3CHO and C2H5OH generation in aqueous CO2/NaHCO3solution. This work may provide a new idea for the synthesis of new high-efficiency photocatalysts.展开更多
