Nickel-based MOF film photocatalyst grown in-situ on foamed nickel surface, preparation method therefor, and application thereof

Abstract

A nickel-based MOF film photocatalyst grown in-situ on a foamed nickel surface, a preparation method therefor, and an application thereof. The nickel-based MOF film photocatalyst grown in-situ on a foamed nickel surface is prepared by first immersing foamed nickel in a diluted acid and performing ultrasonic processing, then cleaning the foamed nickel with deionized water, and drying the foamed nickel to obtain surface-activated foamed nickel; immersing the surface-activated nickel foam in a mixture of an imidazole compound, sodium formate, and a solvent and reacting at 100° C. to 180° C. to obtain an unactivated nickel-based MOFs film on the surface of the foamed nickel, and after cooling to room temperature, removing same and soaking in an organic solvent to activate, and then drying the obtained product. The film photocatalyst synthesized in-situ on the foamed nickel can increase the specific surface area of the material to facilitate the adsorption and diffusion of VOCs, and can expose more catalytic sites, so that the VOCs can be effectively degraded under the action of sunlight.
