Photochemical properties of iron oxide incorporated in clay interlayers

Abstract

Iron oxide microcrystallites incorporated in sodium montmorillonite clay interlayers exhibited ca. 0.28 eV greater band gap than α-Fe2O3 bulk powder, and the Fermi level of the former was 0.23 V more negative than that of the latter. Photocatalytic activities for photodecomposition of acetic acid was higher at the iron oxide microcrystallites than those of α-Fe2O3 powder, the activity difference exceeding the surface area difference between the two.
