In this study, the effects of disperse blue dye-sensitization on the photocatalytic properties of the Ag-N co-doped TiO2 nanoparticles loaded on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) filaments are investigated under visible light irradiation. The microstructure and photocatalytic properties of the as-synthesized TiO2 nanocomposites, as well as the as-prepared PET filaments, are systematically characterized. The photocatalytic performance of the PET filaments coated with the Ag-N co-doped TiO2 nanoparticles sensitized with disperse blue dyes is evaluated via its capacity of photo-degrading methyl orange (MO) dyes under visible light irradiation. It is found that the holes are the predominant reactive radical species and the hydroxyl and superoxide radicals play a subordinate role in the photocatalytic reaction process. The reaction rate constant of the photocatalytic composite filaments is nearly 4.0 times higher than that of the PET filaments loaded solely with TiO2 nanoparticles. The resultant photocatalytic composite filaments are evident to be capable of repeatedly photo-degrading MO dyes without losing its photocatalytic activity significantly.

Hierarchical Ag/AgCl hetero-structures have been fabricated in high-yield by copying the natural architecture of a branch with green leaves, and exhibit higher photocatalytic activities than Ag/AgCl nanowires, AgCl nanoparticles, Ag nanowires, and N-doped TiO2 for the degradation of organic contaminants under visible light irradiation.

Ba0.6Mg0.4TiO3 (BMT) particles with different morphologies were synthesized through hydrothermal method and their optical and photocatalytic properties were investigated. Their crystal structure and microstructures were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). XRD patterns demonstrate that the as-prepared samples are tetragonal structure. FESEM shows that BMT crystals can be fabricated in different morphologies by simply manipulating the reaction parameters of hydrothermal process. The UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectra (UV-vis DRS) reveal that the band gaps of BMT photocatalysts are about 2.37 - 2.51 eV. The as-prepared BMT photocatalysts exhibite higher photocatalytic activities in the degradation of methyl orange (MO) under visible light irradiation (λ > 420 nm) compared with traditional N-doped TiO2 (N-TiO2) and pure BaTiO3 (BTO). The high photocatalytic performance of BMT photocatalysts could be attributed to the recombination restraint of the e-/h+ pairs resulting from doping of Mg2+ ions. The influence of morphologies upon the photocatalytic properties of BMT was studied. Furthermore, BMT nanowires reveal the highest photocatalytic activity. Up to 94.0% MO is decolorized after visible light irradiation for 360 min.
