Abstract EN
Large scale ZnO microflowers assembled by numerous nanosheets are synthesized through a facile and effective hydrothermal route.
The structure and morphology of the resultant products are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM).
Photocatalytic properties of the as-synthesized products are also investigated.
The results demonstrate that eosin red aqueous solution can be degraded over 97% after 110 min under UV light irradiation.
In addition, methyl orange (MO) and Congo red (CR) aqueous solution degradation experiments also are conducted in the same condition, respectively.
It showed that nanosheet-assembled ZnO microflowers represent high photocatalytic activities with a degradation efficiency of 91% for CR with 90 min of irradiation and 90% for MO with 60 min of irradiation.
The reported ZnO products may be promising candidates as the photocatalysts in waste water treatment.
