چکیده

O nanocompósito de partículas de ZnS estabilizadas por íons cetiltrimetilamônio (ZnS-CTA) e montmorilonita (ZnS−CTA−MMT) foi preparado e usado como catalisador na fotodecomposição de fenol sob radiação UV de uma lâmpada de Hg de pressão média. A quantidade de ZnS em ZnS−CTA−MMT foi aproximadamente 6 wt.%. Para comparação, a fotodecomposição foi também realizada com ZnS−CTA, montmorilonita e sem catalisador, isto é, usando apenas irradiação UV. A eficiência da fotodecomposição decresceu na ordem: UV + ZnS−CTA−MMT ca. UV + ZnS−CTA > UV > UV + MMT. A fotodecomposição na presença de ZnS−CTA−MMT e ZnS−CTA ocorreu de acordo com a cinética de pseudo-primeira ordem. Em outros casos, a fotodecomposição correspondeu à cinética de pseudo-segunda ordem de fenol e radicais hidroxila. Radicais hidroxila foram produzidos pelas reações de oxigênio dissolvido e elétrons liberados a partir das nanopartículas ZnS e moléculas de fenol excitadas. MMT reduziu a velocidade da reação de fotodecomposição e não foi observada a atividade catalítica de MMT.

CAVITATION DEPOSITION OF ZnS NANOPARTICLES INTO COMPOSITE WITH MONTMORILLONITE PARTICLES

In this paper we report on ZnS nanoparticles produced by precipitation of zinc acetate and sodium sulphide and stabilized by cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) in aqueous media and deposited on montmorillonite (MMT). For the deposition a new method based on intensive cavitation was used. The montmorillonite carrier was first disintegrated by intense turbulent mixing in an ultrasonic field in...

INFLUENCE OF REACTION MEDIUM ON CO2 PHOTOCATALYTIC REDUCTION YIELDS OVER ZnS-MMT VLIV REAKČNÍHO PROSTŘENÍ NA VÝTĚŽKY FOTOKATALYTICKÉ REDUKCE CO2 V PŘÍTOMNOSTI ZnS-MMT

The reduction of CO2 by photocatalysts is one of the most promising methods since CO2 can be reduced to useful compounds by irradiating it with UV light at room temperature and ambient pressure. The aim of this work was to assess the effect of a reaction media on CO2 photocatalytic reduction yields over ZnS nanoparticles deposited on montmorillonite (ZnS-MMT). Four different reaction media, suc...
