Abstract:The TiO2-coated SiO2 (TCS) nanocatalysts with about 12 nm thickness coating and high dipersity were synthesized by the sol-gel method. Based on the previous experiment, the photocatalytic efficiency of TCS catalysts was enhanced notably by doping Cu and Ag. The effects of coating and doping on the structure and photocatalytic activity of TiO2 and the relative mechanism were investigated by XRD, XPS, UV-vis and the photocatalytic degradation experiment of methyl orange. The results show that, the Ti—O—Si bonds between the interface of TiO2 and SiO2 have an impact on the crystallization process of TiO2 and restrain the growth of the grains. Cu2O-TiO2-SiO2 composite powder with excellent performance can be synthesized by controlling the experimental conditions. The reinforcement mechanism of doping Cu can be ascribed to the modification of Cu2O semiconductor to TiO2. The increasing of photocatalytic property is related to the oxygen vacancy and Cu2O particles. Doping Ag cannot change the width of the forbidden band but can improve the intensity of light absorption, and the photocatalytic degradation efficiency is 95.7% after doping 1.0%Ag.
