Preparation and visible-light photocatalytic properties of the floating hollow glass microspheres - TiO₂/Ag₃PO₄ composites.

ABSTRACT: A novel floating visible-light photocatalyst (HGMs-TiO₂/Ag₃PO₄) composite was prepared using amino modified low-density hollow glass microspheres (HGMs) as carriers to disperse and support TiO₂ and Ag₃PO₄ photocatalysts. The surface morphology, crystal structure and optical properties of the HGMs-TiO₂/Ag₃PO₄ composites were characterized and the Ag₃PO₄ content on the surface of the microspheres was determined by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). Methylene blue (MB) was chose as the organic pollutant to investigate the visible-light catalytic properties of the HGMs-TiO₂/Ag₃PO₄ composites. For HGM composite photocatalysts, when the theo
