Non-contacting (rattle-type) carbon-sphere@TiO2/Cu core-shell composites were prepared through the spray drying technique combined with calcinations using melamine formaldehyde (MF) microspheres as core templates, and TiO2colloid and cupric salt as shell precursors. After the calcination of the as-dried MF@TiO2/cupric salt core-shell spheres at elevated temperatures under nitrogen, rattle-type carbon-sphere@TiO2/Cu core-shell composites were derived with relative uniform sizes. Photocatalytic tests showed that the composites obtained at 550 °C exhibited higher efficiency than those obtained at 700 and 800°C and also higher than the P25 commercial TiO2for the degradation of methylene blue (MB) under visible light irradiation. Antibacterial studies revealed that the rattle-type composites owned excellent antibacterial ability and were stable and reusable.

Core-shell structured hydroxyapatite (HA)/meso-silica was prepared and used as absorbance of methylene blue (MB). HA/meso-silica was synthesized in three steps: preparation of nano-sized HA by wet precipitation method, coating of dense silica and deposition of meso-silica shell on HA. As-received samples were characterized by Fourier transformed infare spectra, small angle X-ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm and transmission electron microscopy. A wormhole framework mesostructure was found for HA/meso-silica. The specific surface area and pore volume were 128 m2•g-1 and 0.36 cm3•g-1, respectively. From the adsorption isotherm, HA/meso-silica with the great specific surface area exhibited a prominent adsorption capacity of MB (134.0 mg/g) in comparison with bare HA (0 mg/g). This study might shed light on surface modification of conventional low-cost adsorbents for removal of organic pollutants from aqueous solutions.

AbstractMagnetically separable and reusable core-shell CoFe2O4-ZnO photocatalyst nanospheres were prepared via hydrothermal synthesis technique using glucose derived carbon nanospheres as template. The morphology and phase of core-shell hybrid structure of CoFe2O4-ZnO was assessed via TEM, and XRD. The UV-vis photocatalytic activity of the composite was assessed via measuring the degradation rate of modeled pollutant methylene blue in water. The magnetic composite showed high UV photocatalytic activity for the degradation of methylene blue. The photocatalytic activity was found to be ZnO shell thickness dependent. Thicker ZnO shells lead to higher rate of photocatalytic activity. Hybrid nanospheres recovered using external magnetic field demonstrated good repeatability of photocatalytic activity. These results promise the reusability of hybrid nanospheres for photocatalytic activity.
