Herein, a specially designed composite based on MIL-125-NH₂ and BiVO₄ was prepared and used for wastewater treatment. In the hybrid MIL-125-NH₂@BiVO₄, MIL-125-NH₂ was uniformly dispersed on the BiVO₄ surface. There is a high affinity between MIL-125-NH₂ and BiVO₄ due to the lattice defects. Under visible light irradiation, the catalytic activity of the as-prepared composite was evaluated by the degradation of various dyes such as malachite green, crystal violet, methylene blue, and Congo red. Nearly 98.7, 99.1, and 41.0% of the initial MG, MB and Cr(VI) were respecACS omega26201-26210https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC9352263biostudies-literatureConstruction of MIL-125-NH₂@BiVO₄ Composites for Efficient Photocatalytic Dye Degradation.PMC9352263Fu BLiu JChen MCai ZZhou TZhu XSun HHao DfalseConstruction of MIL-125-NH₂@BiVO₄ Composites for Efficient Photocatalytic Dye Degradation.The design and construction of a photocatalyst with a heterostructure are a feasible and effective way to enhance the catalytic performance.
