Enhancement of Crystalization and Photocatalysis of Bi₂MoO₆ Nanoplates by SDS Assisted Hydrothermal Method

Abstract:

The γ-Bi₂MoO₆ nanoplates with uniform length and width about 100-200nm have been successfully fabricated by SDS assistant hydrothermal process. The γ-Bi₂MoO₆ nanoplates were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The results show that the SDS plays an important role in controlling the crystallization and morphologies of Bi₂MoO₆. The γ-Bi₂MoO₆ nanoplates show high efficient photocatalytic activities in decomposition of methyl orange.
