Abstract

Three-layer Aurivillius compound bismuth titanate (Bi4Ti3O12) is well known for having interesting properties such as ferroelectric and photocatalyst. Many researchers reported that the unique plate-like shaped particle affecting ferroelectric and photocatalyst properties. The molten salt synthesis is the common simple method to obtain that unique morphology. In this research, Bi4Ti3O12 was synthesized using single molten salt NaCl at various temperatures, which is 800, 850, 900, and 950 oC. X-Ray Diffraction data showed that all obtained Bi4Ti3O12 have a B2cb space group with no impurities detected. The Raman spectra shows the characteristic vibration modes of Bi4Ti3O12 at 62, 117, 228, 269, 332, 364, 536, 851 cm-1. The plate-like shaped particle was confirmed by SEM analysis. Based on SEM images, the size of the particle increased along with the synthesis temperature, which is due to the thermal effect on grain growth.

Abstract

Methylene blue is a synthetic dye known to be harmful to aquatic environments. Therefore, efforts are needed to minimize methylene blue waste. This study focuses on degrading methylene blue through photocatalysis, a method chosen for its affordability and ease of use. The photocatalyst used is hydroxyapatite (HAp) derived from limestone (CaCO3) doped with zinc ions (Zn2+). This combination enhances the efficiency of breaking down dye molecules in liquid waste. The photocatalytic performance was tested under three variations: solution concentration, contact time, and pH, using an 8-watt UV lamp for specified durations. Solution absorbance was measured using a Shimadzu 1800 UV-Vis spectrophotometer. Optimal conditions for methylene blue photodegradation by Zn-doped HAp were achieved at 67.2% efficiency for 5 ppm concentration, 16.125% for 120 minutes of irradiation, and 34.86% at pH 7. Additionally, the study included an analysis of adsorption isotherm models for concentration variation and kinetic adsorption analysis for time variation. The Langmuir and Temkin adsorption isotherm models were found to be most suitable with an R2 = 1. The photodegradation kinetics model followed pseudo second-order kinetics with an R2 = 0.990.

Abstract

One of the interesting properties of Aurivillius compounds is photocatalysts; therefore, they have the potential to be used as antibacterials. However, the study of the antibacterial properties of Aurivillius compounds is still very limited, therefore it’s important to conduct research on it’s properties. Our research aims to study the photocatalytic activity of SrBi2Ta2O9 compounds synthesized by molten salt method (using NaCl/KCl salt) as antibacterial. The diffractogram of the sample shows that the SrBi2Ta2O9 was successfully synthesized, but an impurity phase was formed as Bi2O3, Ta2O5, and SrBi2.83Ta5O15. The SEM images show that the morphological shape obtained is plate-like, which still has agglomeration with particle size distribution at range 20-80 μm. Plot tauc shows that the band gap energy of SrBi2Ta2O9 compounds is 2.8 and 3.06 eV, respectively. The antibacterial activity test results showed that the SrBi2Ta2O9 compound can inhibit staphylococcus bacterial growth under and without light radiation. It indicates that there are two possible mechanisms related to the inhibition of bacterial growth i.e: (a) photocatalysis, and (b) toxicity properties.
