Cu3V2O8powder was prepared by the liquid phase precipitation method and characterized using XRD , SEM and BET. The photocatalytic decolorization of methyl orange in Cu3V2O8powder suspension was investigated using 20w UV light as light source.The result shows that the the liquid-phase precipitation method is a simple and effective method for Cu3V2O8powder preparation. It was found that the sample prepared with the n(V)/n(Cu)moral ratio be 2/3, pH=7 and calcinated under 750°C for 4 hours was pure triclinc Cu3V2O8phase.
