Durable Ag/AgCl nanowires assembled in a sponge for continuous water purification under sunlight†
Abstract
A Ag/AgCl nanowire (NW) sponge and a confined flow design were put forward to improve the photodegradation efficiency of immobilized Ag/AgCl NW catalysts. In consideration of the high cost of Ag/AgCl NWs, an in situ recovery strategy was also provided to extend the lifetime of the Ag/AgCl NW sponge.
