Özet

Visible light enhanced mono- and co-doped TiO2 (i.e., Fe/I–TiO2, Fe–I–TiO2) were synthesized via the sol-gelmethod. The photocatalytic degradation of gaseous benzene by different photocatalysts was evaluated in thisstudy. The morphology and structure of photocatalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Tellerspecific surface areas (BET), Raman spectroscopy, UV–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscope(UV–vis-DRS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Results indicated that Fe/I mono- and co-doped TiO2are the same anatase as the pure TiO2, but the Fe–I–TiO2 effectively decreased the crystallite size and increasedthe specific surface area and the lattice distortion caused by oxygen vacancies. Meanwhile, the Fe–I–TiO2 hadmore surface-bound hydroxyl or chemisorbed oxygen than the pure and Fe/I–TiO2 photocatalysts and a smallerbandgap than pure and Fe/I–TiO2 photocatalysts. The iodine element involving in the Fe–I–TiO2 had variousvalence states (less than positive pentavalent) and the iron element evenly distributed on the titanium baseexisted in the trivalent form. Thus, the Fe–I–TiO2 exhibits the most excellent photocatalytic performance(674.55 μg C6H6/(g·h) and the removal efficiency of gaseous benzene can be reached at59.38%, which is higherthan the pure TiO2 (4.72%), Fe–TiO2 (37.35%) and I–TiO2 (45.29%).
