One-step hydrothermal synthesis and photocatalytic performance of ZnWO 4 /Bi 2 WO 6 composite photocatalysts for efficient degradation of acetaldehyde under UV light irradiation
Bi 2 WO 6 with different Bi 3+ ion concentrations (0-30 mol%) is incorporated with the ZnWO 4 photocatalyst to improve the photocatalytic efficiency by forming a ZnWO 4 /Bi 2 WO 6 composite photocatalyst with hierarchical heterostructure via a one-step hydrothermal method. X-ray diffraction and Rama...
