    Abstract

    Most of previous photocatalysts contain metal species, thus exploring a metal-free photocatalyst is still challenging. A metal-free photocatalyst has an advantage for the development of economical and non-toxic artificial photosynthesis system and/or environmental purification applications. In this study, rhombohedral boron monosulfide (r-BS) was synthesized by a high-pressure solid-state reaction, and its photocatalytic properties were investigated. r-BS absorbed visible light, and its photocurrent action spectrum also exhibited visible light responsivity. The r-BS evolved hydrogen (H2) from water under ultraviolet (UV) as well as under visible light irradiation, and its internal quantum efficiency reached 1.8% under UV light irradiation. In addition to the H2 evolution reaction, the r-BS photocatalyst drove carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction and dye oxidation reactions under UV irradiation. Although bare r-BS was not so stable under strong light irradiation in water, cocatalyst modification improved its stability. These results indicate that r-BS is a new class of non-metal photocatalyst applicable for H2 production, CO2 reduction, and environmental purification reactions.

    Photocatalysts are promising materials for solid-state antiviral coatings to protect against the spread of pandemic coronavirus disease (COVID-19). This paper reports that copper oxide nanoclusters grafted with titanium dioxide (CuxO/TiO2) inactivated the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus, including its Delta variant, even under dark condition, and further inactivated it under illumination with a white fluorescent bulb. To investigate its inactivation mechanism, the denaturation of spike proteins of SARS-CoV-2 was examined by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In addition to spike proteins, fragmentation of ribonucleic acids in SARS-CoV-2 was investigated by real-time reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). As a result, both spike proteins and RNAs in the SARS-CoV-2 virus were damaged by the CuxO/TiO2 photocatalyst even under dark condition and were further damaged under white fluorescent bulb illumination. Based on the present antiviral mechanism, the CuxO/TiO2 photocatalyst will be effective in inactivating other potential mutant strains of SARS-CoV-2. The CuxO/TiO2 photocatalyst can thus be used to reduce the infectious risk of COVID-19 in an indoor environment, where light illumination is turned on during the day and off during the night.

  • Electrochemical characterization of manganese oxides as a water oxidation catalyst in proton exchange membrane electrolysers Reviewed

    The performance of four polymorphs of manganese (Mn) dioxides as the catalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysers was examined. The comparison of the activity between Mn oxides/carbon (Mn/C), iridium oxide/carbon (Ir/C) and platinum/carbon (Pt/C) under the same condition in PEM electrolysers showed that the γ-MnO 2 /C exhibited a voltage efficiency for water electrolysis comparable to the case with Pt/C, while lower than the case with the benchmark Ir/C OER catalyst. The rapid decrease in the voltage efficiency was observed for a PEM electrolyser with the Mn/C, as indicated by the voltage shift from 1.7 to 1.9 V under the galvanostatic condition. The rapid deactivation was also observed when Pt/C was used, indicating that the instability of PEM electrolysis with Mn/C is probably due to the oxidative decomposition of carbon supports. The OER activity of the four types of Mn oxides was also evaluated at acidic pH in a three-electrode system. It was found that the OER activity trends of the Mn oxides evaluated in an acidic aqueous electrolyte were distinct from those in PEM electrolysers, demonstrating the importance of the evaluation of OER catalysts in a real device condition for future development of noble-metal-free PEM electrolysers.

    本研究では、金属硫化物を用いた電気化学的なCO2還元触媒の開発、ならびにその光機能化を目的として研究を推進した。
    昨年度までの結果で、Fe-Ni複合硫化物を用いてのCO2還元において、系内にアミノ酸分子を添加することで活性が向上することを明らかにした。ここで用いていたサンプルは混合物であったが、既報の合成法を参考にすることで単相のFe-Ni硫化物であるviolarite(FeNi2S4)を合成することに成功した。こちらを用いてアミノ酸分子の存在下でCO2還元能のpH依存性を検討したところ、塩基性においてはアミノ酸分子添加によりギ酸の生成能は向上したが、COの生成は低下するという結果となった。また、共同研究で行ったin situ電気化学XAFS測定では、反応中にFeとNiの価数変化が起こっていることを明らかにした。これらの結果は、自然界に豊富に存在する鉄硫化物を電極触媒として適用する上で重要な知見を与えるものである。
    さらに、広く金属硫化物の触媒としての利用可能性を検討するため、複数(約10種類)の金属硫化物を合成、そのCO2還元能を検討し、これらの金属硫化物の物理化学パラメータとCO2還元活性にどのような相関があるかに関して知見を得るため、重回帰分析を行った。その結果、金属硫化物上でのCO生成に関しては結合距離や結合角といった構造的なパラメータの寄与が大きいことが分かった。既往の金属電極ではCO、ギ酸生成共に電気陰性度や電子親和力といった電子的パラメータが効いていることから、金属硫化物上でのCO生成は既存のモデルとは異なる特異なメカニズムで進行していると考えられる。
    同時並行で、普遍元素からなる光電極の作成も進めた。具体的には、CaFe2O4光電極の作成時に、溶融塩法を適用することで、ナノロッド型薄膜を作成し、既往のプロセスで作成したものと比較して大きな光電流の値を得た。

    α- and β- phase MnO2 were synthesized and their electrochemical water oxidation activities were examined. As a result, both of them demonstrated an increase of water oxidation activity by the addition of pyridine. In contrast, in in situ spectroscopic measurements, the absorbance of Mn3+, which act as the active species, disappeared by the addition of pyridine in the case of β-MnO2. This phenomenon cannot be explained by conventional reaction mechanism. Additional electrochemical and spectroscopic analysis revealed that pyridine coordinated to MnO6 octahedra, resulting in the acceleration of interface charge transfer.
