Research on the Solvothermal Synthesis and Photocatalytic Properties of Nano-Size ZnO

Nano-size ZnO of one dimensional structure was prepared by solvothermal synthesis through dissolution-crystallization mechanism and characterized by TEM and XRD. Moreover, photocatalytic degradation rate of dye Rhodamine B (RhB) at the present of nano-size ZnO were carried out, and the results indicated that the nano-size ZnO prepared by such a method has excellent photocatalytic properties.
