Abstract

Bi2MoO6 and FePt particles were synthesized by hydrothermal and wet chemistry methods, respectively. Bi2MoO6/FePt composites were synthesized by milling, and their mass ratio was controlled. The photocatalytic performance was evaluated by degrading an organic dye. When FePt mass is 10%, the composite presented the best photocatalytic performance. The photocatalytic mechanism investigation indicated that the highest photocatalytic performance was attributed to the prevented electron/hole recombination because of the existence of FePt nanoparticles in Bi2MoO6. The stability testing showed that Bi2MoO6/FePt-2 had relatively high reaction stability over reactions. The magnetic separation can be applied due to the presence of the magnetic phase of FePt in Bi2MoO6/FePt composites.
