Abstract

The compounds of tetragonal Ba₄In₂O₇were synthesized by self-propagating combustion synthesis method from raw materials of Ba(NO₃)₂, In(NO₃)₃and Glycine. The effect of synthesis conditions on the formation and photocatalytic activity of the compounds was investigated. The synthesized Ba₄In₂O₇ was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-vis DRS) and N₂ adsorption-desorption isotherms (BET), respectively. With rhodamine B (RhB) as a model degradation compound, the effect of calcinations temperature (T), calcinations time (t), Ba to In molar ratio (Ba/In), Glycine to metal ion molar ratio(G/M) and the initial concentration of RhB on the photocatalytic activity of Ba₄In₂O₇ was investigated. The results show that the synthetic Ba₄In₂O₇, prepared by conditions of T=800℃, t=1 h, Ba/In= 2∶1 and G/M=2∶1, has tetragonal structure, higher purity and excellent photocatalytic activity. The RhB (5 mg/L) can be completely decomposed in 3 h under lighting of a high pressure mercury lamp (125 W), and the decolorization rate of RhB can reach 96.5%. The degrading process fits the first-order kinetic model.

Key words: inorganic non-metallic materials Ba₄In₂O₇ photocatalysis self-propagating combustion synthesis rhodamine B
