Solid catalysts consisting of polyoxometalates (POM) namely phosphotungstic acid H3PW12O40 (HPW) supported on a mesoporous sieve MCM-41 have been prepared and characterized by FT-IR, X-ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption and high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM). The HPW/MCM-41 with different HPW loadings from 10 to 60 wt% possess large specific surface area and rather uniform mesopores. Keggin structure of HPW retains on the prepared composite catalysts. The photocatalytic performance of HPW/MCM-41 was examined by degradation of a durable pesticide imidacloprid. It is found that the prepared photocatalysts exhibit high activity under irradiation of 365 nm monochromatic light. For 50 mL of imidacloprid (10 mg/L), conversion of imidacloprid using 20 mg of HPW/MCM-41 with 50 wt% loading level and calcined at 300°C reaches 58.0% after 5 h irradiation. Copyright
Photochemistry of imidacloprid in model systems
Schippers, Nicole,Schwack, Wolfgang
experimental part, p. 8023 - 8029 (2010/03/30)
The photochemical behavior of the neonicotinoid insecticide imidacloprid was studied with regard to different chemical environments. Different model solvents simulated the structure moieties mainly occurring in waxes and cutin of the plant cuticle. Cycloh
