Rapid Synthesis Method of Ag₃PO₄ as Reusable Photocatalytically Active Semiconductor.

ABSTRACT: The widespread use of Ag₃PO₄ is not surprising when considering its higher photostability compared to other silver-based materials. The present work deals with the facile precipitation method of silver phosphate. The effects of four different phosphate sources (H₃PO₄, NaH₂PO₄, Na₂HPO₄, Na₃PO₄·12 H₂O) and two different initial concentrations (0.1 M and 0.2 M) were investigated. As the basicity of different phosphate sources influences the purity of Ag₃PO₄, different products were obtained. Using H₃PO₄ did not lead to the formation of Ag₃PO₄, while applying NaH₂PO₄ resulted in Ag_3<
