Abstract:

To investigate the photocatalytic degradation of MG by PW12-TiO2/SiO2, in this study PW12-TiO2/SiO2 composite oxides were prepared by sol-gel and hydrothermal strategy. The prepared photocatalysits were characterized by XRD, BET,TEM and EDS techniques and the configuration charateristics of PW12-TiO2/SiO2 nanoparticles were systematically investigated. Photocatalytic activity was checked by the photocatalytic oxidation of MG dye in aqueous solution. The results showed that the phosphotungstic acid still has the Keggin structure. The anatase phase of titanium oxid is identified by XRD. The result of the present work implied that compared with pure TiO2, the PW12-TiO2/SiO2 composite oxides have stronger catalytic activity, good particles dispersion and bigger specific surface area. The optimal concentration of MG was 20mg.L-1, the best dosage of PW12-TiO2/SiO2 was 1g.L-1. Moreover, after three times of recycling, the catalyst still has high catalytic activity.
