Abstract
Se prepararon materiales a partir de la inmovilización de ácido tungstofosfórico sobre zeolita
NH4ZSM5 mediante impregnación húmeda para ser aplicados en la degradación de moléculas
representativas de contaminantes presentes en efluentes empleando fotocatálisis heterogénea. La
concentración de ácido tunstofosfórico incorporada fue de 10 y 30% p/p en el sólido obtenido. Los
materiales se caracterizaron mediante diferentes técnicas fisicoquímicas. El área superficial
disminuyó respecto de la matriz sin modificar como resultado de bloqueo de los poros de la
zeolita. Los patrones de difracción de rayos X de las muestras modificadas presentaron los picos
característicos de zeolita NH4ZSM5 y un conjunto de picos adicionales asignados a la presencia
de la sal (NH4)3[PW12O40]. Además, las muestras exhibieron valores de band gap similares a los
reportados para los semiconductores más estudiados. Se obtuvieron catalizadores con elevada
actividad fotocatalítica en las moléculas de estudio.
Tungstophosphoric acid inmobilized on NH4ZSM5 zeolite were prepared by the wet impregnation technique for their application as catalyst in photocatalytic degradation reactions of representative molecules of pollutants present in effluents. Tungstophosphoric acid concentrations in the solid were 10 and 30 w/w %, respectively. These materials were characterized by different physicochemical techniques in order to determine their properties. When tungstophophoric acid content was increased, surface area decreased with respect to the unmodified matrix as result of the blockage of the zeolite´s pores. XRD patterns of the modified solids, showed NH4ZSM5 characteristic peaks and new signals assigned to (NH4)3[PW12O40] salt. Moreover, the samples exhibited similar band gap values to those reported for the most studied semiconductors. According to catalytic results, the obtained materials resulted adequate photocatalysts for the studied molecules degradation.
