▎ 摘 要
Zinc ferrite-reduced graphene oxide composites, which could effectively remove the methylene blue from aqueous solution, were prepared via a facile solvothermal process. These as-prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, vibration sample magnetometer and UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. Experimental results showed that solvents played an important role in the electron structure of the final samples. Moreover, they influenced the photocatalytic performance as well. Among all the samples prepared in different solvents, those composites prepared in N-N-dimethylformamide showed the greatest performance. They could effectively remove more than 90% of the methylene blue from the solution in about 180 min. The efficient removal of target dye turned out to be the result of the combination of physical adsorption and photocatalytic degradation under visible light irritation. These catalysts showed remarkable stability, which could be effectively reused for three times. In addition, all these samples showed a certain magnetic response, which was beneficial to recycle.
