Abstract

BiOI was modified by polyaniline (PANI) via a facile co-precipitation method. The as-prepared composites were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscope, UV–Vis diffuse reflectance spectra, photocurrent–potential (I–V) curves, transient photocurrents, Electrochemical impedance, Mott–Schottky curves and room photoluminescence emission spectra. The effects of PANI/BiOI composites mass ratio on for rhodamine B (RhB) degradation efficiency under visible light irradiation were systematically investigated. Experimental results showed that the photocatalytic activity of PANI/BiOI (12.5 wt%) reached about 91% removal efficiency of RhB, which was about four times higher than pure BiOI. By capture experiment, the dominant radical during the photocatalysis degradation experiment were further ascertained.
