Formaldehyde (HCHO) as an indoor air pollutant released by new furniture and decorative materials is of great concern. Developing a self-cleaning device to remove HCHO is an ideal way to improve indoor air quality. In this study, a self-cleaning window with a multilayered structure constructed from fluorine-doped tin oxide/bismuth tungstate/resorcinol-formaldehyde resin (FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF) has been fabricated, which is capable of degrading HCHO in natural indoor condition. The as-fabricated device could utilize the natural room light and promote the generation and transfer of the photocatalytic carriers in Bi₂WO₆, which subsequently delivers a good catalytic oxygen reduction efficiency in RF to produce hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). The as-synthesized H₂O₂ could further split into hydroxyl radicals (^•OH), then oxide the HCHO molecules in the air. The present study demonstrates a novel and efficient strategy to fabricate a transparent multifunctional window for self-cleaning indoor gaseous pollutants, the concept is of great importance to be expanded in a broad range of indoor furniture for in-house air pollution control.

Indoor volatile toxic gases (VOCs) emitted from interior building decoration materials, such as wooden furniture, wallpaper, and paint, are the primary sources of indoor air pollution [1,2]. As one of the most representative and direct indoor VOCs, formaldehyde (HCHO) poses a significant risk to human nerve and respiratory systems [3,4]. In 2006, HCHO was classified as a major indoor air pollutant and Group I carcinogen compound by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) [5]. Furthermore, HCHO is a challenge in terms of quickly degrading and can affect indoor air quality for up to six months [6,7]. Therefore, effectively removing indoor HCHO is imperative to improve indoor air quality and protect human health [8]. Among various methods reported for HCHO purification [9–11], adsorption is widely used owing to its easy operation and low cost. However, the adsorbed HCHO may re-release from the adsorbent to the environment, resulting in a secondary cycle of pollution [12,13]. Thermal catalysis can mineralize HCHO into non-toxic products such as CO₂ and H₂O; however, high energy consumption is required, restricting its application for indoor air purification under natural conditions [14–16]. Therefore, it is necessary to develop green and sustainable technologies to effectively degrade the indoor HCHO and control the air quality.

Photocatalytic technologies are attracting increasing attention because they convert solar energy into environmentally friendly energy carriers for pollutant degradation. Various photocatalysts have been developed to ensure cost-effective and highly efficient photocatalytic processes [12,13,17]. Although a variety of photocatalysts have been explored for HCHO degradation, most of the photocatalysts explored nowadays are powders. During the practical application in indoor room air control, these photocatalyst powders are difficult to apply and can be easily inhaled into the human body, resulting in subsequently adverse human health impact [18].

In this study, we first coated multiple layers of bismuth tungstate (Bi₂WO₆) and resorcinol-formaldehyde resin (RF) films onto the fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrate via continuous hydrothermal reactions to construct a photocatalytic window with a distinct sandwich structure. The multiple-layered FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF thin films demonstrated high photocatalytic efficiency and strong oxidation capacity toward the effective removal of indoor HCHO gas. This work provides a new concept for designing multilayer self-cleaning windows for indoor air quality control, which paves the way for the construction of smart furniture for a sustainable environment.

To construct the self-clean window, Bi₂WO₆ has been coated on FTO to construct the FTO/Bi₂WO₆ via a hydrothermal method. Briefly, 0.97 g of Bi(NO₃)₃·5H₂O, 0.32 g of Na₂WO₄·2H₂O, and 0.01 g of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) were added in 16 mL of ethylene glycol and stirred for 1 h. The mixture was transferred into a 20 mL Teflon-lined stainless autoclave. Then, an FTO substrate was fully immersed in the solution in the autoclave with the conductive surface facing upwards with a tilted angle of 45°. The autoclave was heated in a 180 ℃ oven for 16 h to enable in-situ growth of Bi₂WO₆ on the FTO surface. After the reaction, the high-pressure autoclave was cooled down to room temperature naturally. The obtained FTO/Bi₂WO₆ was washed continuously with deionized (DI) water and anhydrous ethanol under sonication and dried in an oven at 60 ℃ to obtain a white Bi₂WO₆ film on the FTO surface. To further fabricate FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF, 0.096 g of resorcinol powder was dissolved in a mixed solution containing formaldehyde (0.135 mL), ammonia (0.050 mL), and DI water (16 mL). After stirring for 30 min, the mixture was transferred into a 20 mL Teflon-lined stainless autoclave. The previously synthesized FTO/Bi₂WO₆ was fully immersed in the mixture, and the temperature of the convection drying oven was adjusted to 250 ℃ and heated for 24 h. Afterward, the resulting FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF was cooled down and loaded in a beaker containing acetone solution, and sonicated for 1 min. Later, it was washed repeatedly with DI water and anhydrous ethanol, and dried in a vacuum drying oven at 80 ℃ for 10 h to obtain a reddish film. The detailed details have been shown in Fig. S1 (Supporting information), and documented in the Supporting information.

Photocatalytic experiments were conducted in a 60 mL homemade glass box using a Xenon lamp as a simulated light source. The full-spectrum light source was adjusted to one sun intensity by a light intensity meter, while the visible light source was obtained by filtering the UV light from the full spectrum using a 420 nm filter. 50 mL of DI water was added to a homemade box to simulate the indoor room environment. The FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF film was placed vertically on the wall of the box. The surface containing the Bi₂WO₆/RF was aligned in the direction of the light source. 0.5 mL of the solution was extracted from the box into a 10 mL test tube every 1 h. Then 4.5 mL of cerium sulfate solution (0.05 mol/L) was added to this test tube and shaken to make sure a homogeneous solution was obtained. The absorbance of the solution was measured in the cuvette using a ultraviolet–visible (UV–vis) spectrophotometer, while the concentration of H₂O₂ produced by photocatalysis was calculated using the following equation (Eq. 1):

(1)

where V₀ and C₀ are the volume and concentration of the prepared cerium ion solution; V₁ is the volume of the test solution; C₁ is the residue cerium concentration calculated from the absorbance and standard curves.

Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) was used to study the phase compositions of the as-synthesized different films (Fig. S2a in Supporting information). The XRD pattern of FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF in Fig. 1a suggests that orthorhombic Bi₂WO₆ (space group B2ab (41), JCPDS 73–2020) [19] has been successfully growth on FTO, indicating a high purity of the as-prepared Bi₂WO₆ film [19]. Furthermore, a broad characteristic peak at approximately 20° corresponding to the amorphous RF resin has been observed, suggesting the RF resin has been successfully deposited on the film (Fig. S2b in Supporting information). To further study the morphology and elucidate the elemental distribution on FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF, SEM and EDS mapping has been recorded as shown in Figs. S3a-f (Supporting information). It can be seen that the up surface of FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF is covered by spherical RF resin, while all the elements are uniformly distributed within the film. To unravel the layered stacking structure of FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF, a cross-sectional SEM image (Fig. 1b) has been recorded, which reveals that a sandwich structure has been preserved within FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF film. The light-absorbing ability of a photocatalyst is critical to its photocatalytic activity, to study the optical properties of the as-prepared films. Solid-state UV–vis spectra have been recorded as shown in Fig. 1c. It can be seen that the absorption edge of the Bi₂WO₆ film was 480 nm. A steep absorption edge is observed in the visible range, indicating that Bi₂WO₆ presents a bandgap of 2.51 eV within the visible light area [20]. Moreover, an absorption edge of 650 nm corresponding to a bandgap energy of 1.98 eV has been also observed in Fig. 1d, this can be assigned to the charge transfer of the benzenoid units to quinoid units [21].

Furthermore, the surface elemental species and valence states of FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF were analyzed using XPS. The change in binding energy was investigated which could be inferred from the tendency of electron transfer in FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF [22–24]. As shown in Fig. S4 (Supporting information), the characteristic peaks associated with C, O, W, and Bi can be found in the full spectrum, demonstrating the presence of all the destinated elements in FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF. Fig. 2a shows the XPS spectra of C 1s, the binding energies at 284.7, 286.5 and 287.6 eV are attributed to the chemical bonds of the sp² or sp³ hybridized carbon within typical C=C, C—O, and C=O groups in RF, respectively [25,26]. Fig. 2b presents the high-resolution XPS spectrum of O 1s, wherein three characteristic peaks at binding energies of 529.9, 531.4 and 533.9 eV corresponding to the Bi-O, W-O, and O—H bonds are observed, respectively [25]. Furthermore, the W 4f peaks at 33.1 and 37.1 eV and Bi 4f peak at 164.3 and 159.0 eV, corresponding to the binding energies of W 4f_7/2 and W 4f_5/2, [27] and Bi 4f_5/2 and Bi 4f_7/2 [28] in Bi₂WO₆, have been observed in Figs. 2c and d, respectively. For comparison, the XPS spectra of FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF under visible-light irradiation have also been recorded. Significant changes in peak positions of C 1s, O 1s, W 4f, and Bi 4f have been observed, indicating variations in the electron densities after light irradiation. It is clear that under visible-light irradiation, the peak position of all the elements shows a redshift, which indicates a feasible electron transfer under light irradiation [24,29].

In addition, the transient photocurrent of FTO/RF, FTO/Bi₂WO₆, and FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF are shown in Fig. 2e. The photocurrent response increases significantly from 0.05 µA to 0.11 µA in FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF, which is ascribed to the synergetic effects of coupling Bi₂WO₆/RF together. Furthermore, the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) spectra have been recorded in Fig. 2f, and a smaller radius has been observed within FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF, compared with FTO/RF and FTO/Bi₂WO₆, suggesting a significantly reduced charge transfer resistance and benefited to the separation and transfer of photogenerated carriers [30,31].

The photocatalytic activity of the FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF film for H₂O₂ production was investigated under 1 sun (100 mW/cm²) irradiation with a simulated light source [32]. Fig. 3a shows a time-dependent H₂O₂ generation efficiency of FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF film. The H₂O₂ generation concentrations are high at an early stage and continue to increase after prolonged light exposure. The overall H₂O₂ concentration reaches up to 130 µmol/L after 4 h, which is superior to the H₂O₂ concentrations generated by the photocatalyst powders as reported in the literature. Furthermore, the highest production rate of 480 µmol g⁻¹ h⁻¹ can be achieved at the early stage, while it decreases afterward (Table 1) [33–39]. The intrinsic reason could be ascribed to the fact that the as-generated holes (h⁺) in the valence band (VB) of RF are accumulated as the reaction goes on, which is not only subjected to consumption by water oxidation but also by RF autoxidation [21].

To understand the H₂O₂ production mechanism, the influence of light and oxygen on photocatalytic H₂O₂ generation efficiency was studied (Fig. 3b). The red line indicates the produced H₂O₂ concentration after continuous passage of oxygen in the dark condition, while the black and blue lines represent the generated H₂O₂ concentrations under oxygen and argon environments under 1 sun irradiation. The results demonstrate that under anaerobic conditions, a 70 µmol/L H₂O₂ concentration in 4 h has achieved in FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF, which should be account to the fact that photocatalytic O₂ production capability of Bi₂WO₆ combined with the oxygen reduction ability of RF, which helps to split the water molecule to generate O₂, then further reduced to produce H₂O₂ [40], as it is well-known that Bi₂WO₆ is a capable of photocatalytic water oxidation to highly efficient generating O₂ [41,42]. Moreover, the concentration of H₂O₂ produced by FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF and FTO/RF under anaerobic conditions are compared and shown in Fig. S5 in Supporting information. It is clear that under the presence of Bi₂WO₆, the generated H₂O₂ concentration is 3–4 times higher than solely with RF, indicating that the oxygen produced by Bi₂WO₆ via photocatalytic water splitting pathway plays a critical role in the efficient production of H₂O₂ in the FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF system. It may serve as the oxygen source for photocatalytic reduction to produce H₂O_2. As shown in Fig. 3c, it illustrates the process of bismuth tungstate generating oxygen and the resin reducing oxygen. Water molecules adsorb onto the bottom layer of the Bi₂WO₆ film, where the oxygen atom of the water molecule donates an electron, forming oxygen ions (O₂⁻). The generated O₂⁻ are released onto the catalyst surface, where they combine with holes to produce O₂. O₂ is then transported to the upper layer RF, where it participates in the oxygen reduction reaction with the electrons escaping from its surface, accelerating the production of H₂O₂. The specific formula is as follows (Eq. 2) [43,44]:

(2)

As shown in Fig. 4a, the production of H₂O₂ increased with the light intensity. The stronger the light intensity, the more H₂O₂ is produced. Fig. 4b compares the H₂O₂ concentrations produced by different films under the same light intensity. FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF generates more H₂O₂ than FTO/RF and FTO/Bi₂WO₆. In addition, the H₂O₂ production ability of FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF under different light intensities (0.5 and 1 sun) was investigated.

To understand the energy diagram and electron transfer pathway, the energy structure of the material consisted within the film has been carefully characterized (Fig. 4c). Mott-Schottky measurements were conducted to calculate the conduction band (CB) and valence band (VB) positions of Bi₂WO₆ and RF. As shown in Fig. S6 (Supporting information), both Bi₂WO₆ and RF are n-type semiconductors with positive slopes and their flat-band potentials are −0.87 and −0.48 V, respectively. The CB positions versus the standard hydrogen electrode (SHE) were converted using the following equation (Eq. 3) [45,46]:

(3)

The calculated CB positions of Bi₂WO₆ and RF are −0.22 and 0.173 V, respectively [47]. Therefore, based on the respective band gaps of 2.51 and 1.98 eV for Bi₂WO₆ and RF, the valence band positions can be determined as 2.290 and 2.153 eV, respectively. By analyzing the energy band structure and conducting photoelectrochemical tests on the FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF film, its high photocatalytic activity may be attributed to the efficient transfer of photo-induced electrons [48].

The HCHO concentration was detected by national standard method (Fig. S7 in Supporting information). Then a schematic representation of HCHO degradation test is depicted in Fig. 5a. A closed cubic box (6 × 6 × 6 cm³) was prepared with injection of HCHO gas containing FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF film inside it. At intervals of every 15 min under sunlight conditions, gas samples were extracted from the box to measure the time-dependent HCHO concentration (Fig. S8 in Supporting information). The schematic diagram of the HCHO photocatalytic degradation and detection experiment is as shown in Fig. S9 (Supporting information). The concentration of HCHO in the box without FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF film is around 0.18 mg/m³, higher than the national standard for indoor HCHO concentration (0.08 mg/m³). In contrast, for the box containing FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF film, HCHO concentration is reduced to 0.03 mg/m³ within 1 h, below the national standard. The degradation efficiency (η) was calculated using the following equation (Eq. 4):

(4)

where C₀ and C_t are the initial and after-reaction concentrations of HCHO. The degradation efficiency was as high as 84% (Fig. 5b), superior to other photocatalysts that have been reported under similar conditions. (Table S2 in Supporting information). These findings demonstrate the exceptional performance of the designed FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF structure in indoor HCHO degradation in limited time-period. In this context, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) tests were conducted to investigate the active species responsible for formaldehyde degradation, as depicted in Fig. 5c. ^•OH played a crucial role. Furthermore, DFT calculations were performed to unravel the reaction kinetics (Table S3 in Supporting information) [49]. In the FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF photocatalytic process, the total energy of the reactants (HCHO and hv) provided the initial energy at the outset of the reaction. The photoexcited ^•OH possessed a sufficiently high energy state to facilitate the degradation of formaldehyde molecules. The overall ΔG = −257.1 kcal/mol for the entire reaction, indicating that the entire reaction is proceeding spontaneously towards the formation of more stable products like H₂O and CO₂. A negative ΔG value implies that the reaction is thermodynamically favorable, possessing sufficient driving force and requiring no additional energy input. Therefore, it is a thermodynamically favorable process for formaldehyde degradation.

Furthermore, the overall mechanism of HCHO degradation can be summarized in Fig. 5d. When sunlight irradiates on the surface of FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF film, the light energy exceeds or equals the band gap energies of Bi₂WO₆ and RF, will promote electrons and holes separation within the photocatalyst. Heterojunction between Bi₂WO₆/RF facilitates transfer of photogenerated electrons from Bi₂WO₆ to RF. The photogenerated electrons in CB of RF are captured by O₂ for two-electron reduction being converting into H₂O₂. Subsequently, under light exposure, the H₂O₂ formed on FTO/Bi₂W₆/RF surface will be spitted into hydroxyl radicals capable of degrading formaldehyde into water and carbon dioxide [8,29].

In summary, a facile two-step hydrothermal method has been employed to successfully construct the FTO/Bi₂WO₆/RF heterojunction window. This novel and highly efficient photocatalyst can degrade up to 84% of indoor HCHO within 1 h, with a degradation rate of 0.15 mg m⁻³ h⁻¹. In this experiment, the national indoor formaldehyde standard (0.08 mg/m³) was achieved within 1 h. The excellent photocatalytic performance is attributed to the Bi₂WO₆/RF heterojunction that promotes photogenerated electron transfer from Bi₂WO₆ to RF. This study presents innovative approach on integrating multilayer photocatalytic materials on substrate for effective removal of indoor HCHO, with potential applicability in degrading other VOCs.
