Synthesis and Characterization of High Efficiency and Stable Spherical Ag3PO4Visible Light Photocatalyst for the Degradation of Methylene Blue Solutions
Keyword(s):
A facile method for the synthesis of Ag3PO4visible light photocatalyst has been developed to improve the photocatalytic activity and stability. The as-prepared samples are investigated by X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, and UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy techniques. The results reveal that the prepared Ag3PO4has cube structure with a band gap of 2.26 eV. The as-prepared samples show higher photocatalytic activity for methylene blue (MB) degradation than that of N-TiO2under visible light irradiation.
