Abstract

With the commercial TiO2 (Macklin P25) as the support,M/TiO2 (M=Ag,Au,Pd or Pt,the theoretical M weight percentage was 0.5wt%,respectively) photocatalysts were prepared using the polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) or polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-protected reduction methods.Physicochemical properties of the TiO2 and M/TiO2 samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD),ultraviolet visible diffuse reflection spectroscopy (UV-Vis DRS),photoluminescence (PL) spectrum analysis technology,and their photocatalytic activities were evaluated for the removal of methyl orange (MO) under visible-light illumination.It was found that the high visible-light-driven catalytic performance of the Pt/TiO2 sample was associated with its pure anatase crystal phase,strong visible light absorption performance,low bandgap energy (2.89eV) as well as low recombination rate of photogenerated electrons and holes.
