In this study, a ternary magnetically separable nanocomposite of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) embedded in magnetic graphene oxide (Ag/FeO@GO) was designed and synthesized. Beta-cyclodextrin was used as a green reducing and capping agent for decorating of AgNPs on FeO@GO. The fabricated material was characterized using X-ray diffractometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The catalytic properties of the prepared Ag/FeO@GO for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) and methylene blue (MB) dye with sodium borohydride were investigated in detail. The morphological and structural studies revealed that FeO and AgNPs with a mean size of 12 nm were uniformly distributed on the GO sheet at high densities. The catalytic tests showed that Ag/FeO@GO exhibited an ultrafast catalytic reduction of 4-NP and MB with a reduction rate constant of 0.304 min and 0.448 min, respectively. Moreover, the catalyst demonstrated excellent stability and reusability, as evidenced by the more than 97% removal efficiency maintained after five reuse cycles. The Ag/FeO@GO catalyst could be easily recovered by the magnetic separation due to the superparamagnetic nature of FeO with high saturated magnetization (45.7 emu/g). Besides, the formation of networking between the formed AgNPs and β-CD through hydrogen bonding prevented the agglomeration of AgNPs, ensuring their high catalytic ability. The leaching study showed that the dissolution of Fe and Ag from Ag/FeO@GO was negligible, indicating the environmental friendliness of the synthesized catalyst. Finally, the high catalytic performance, excellent stability, and recoverability of Ag/FeO@GO make it a potential candidate for the reduction of organic pollutants in wastewater.
在这项研究中,设计并合成了一种三元磁性可分离纳米复合材料,即银纳米粒子(AgNPs)嵌入磁性氧化石墨烯(Ag/FeO@GO)中。β-环糊精被用作绿色还原剂和封端剂,用于在 FeO@GO 上修饰 AgNPs。使用 X 射线衍射、傅里叶变换红外光谱、扫描电子显微镜、振动样品磁强计和能量色散 X 射线光谱对制备的材料进行了表征。详细研究了制备的 Ag/FeO@GO 对硼氢化钠还原 4-硝基苯酚(4-NP)和亚甲基蓝(MB)染料的催化性能。形态和结构研究表明,FeO 和平均尺寸为 12nm 的 AgNPs 以高密度均匀分布在 GO 片上。催化测试表明,Ag/FeO@GO 对 4-NP 和 MB 的催化还原具有超快的反应速率常数,分别为 0.304min 和 0.448min。此外,该催化剂表现出优异的稳定性和可重复使用性,经过五次重复使用循环后,去除效率仍保持在 97%以上。由于 FeO 具有高饱和磁化强度(45.7 emu/g)的超顺磁性,Ag/FeO@GO 催化剂可以通过磁分离很容易地回收。此外,形成的 AgNPs 通过氢键与β-CD 之间形成网络,防止了 AgNPs 的聚集,保证了它们的高催化能力。浸出研究表明,Ag/FeO@GO 中 Fe 和 Ag 的溶解可以忽略不计,这表明合成催化剂具有环境友好性。最后,Ag/FeO@GO 具有高催化性能、优异的稳定性和可回收性,使其成为废水有机污染物还原的潜在候选催化剂。
