摘要/Abstract

摘要： The shape of nanostructure has important effects on their properties, therefore in this study, we have prepared and characterized three different morphologies of WO₃ nanostructures i.e. nanorod, nanosphere and nanoplate for surveying shape effect on their photocatalytic properties toward degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) dye. Obtained results show that nanoplate WO₃ in comparison with others has the best photocatalytic activity. According to SEM, and photocatalytic degradation results, the reason for this behavior is the sharp edges and corners of WO₃ nanoplates. Because of their low coordination number, atoms located in the edges and corners of the WO₃ nanoplates have more activity, adsorb more RhB and therefore give more photocatalytic activity to the WO₃ nanoplates. Using of different scavengers showed that hydroxyl radicals are mainly responsible for photocatalytic activity of WO₃ nanoplates and nanospheres but for WO₃ nanorods, superoxide radicals are the main photocatalytic degradation agents.
