초록

TiO$_2$ has been used as photocatalyst since two and half decades ago. The efficiency in its photocatalytic reactions has been improved by increasing the surface area of the photocatalyst by supporting fine TiO$_2$ particles on some porous materials. In this work, heteropolytungstic acid (HPA) - encapsulated into the titanium exchanged SBA-15 mesoporous materials (TiSBA-15) were prepared and characterized. Also their photocatalytic effects on decomposition of phenol were investigated and the photodecomposition rates of the phenol were observed to be increased by 2.5 8 fold, as compared to those observed in the presence of HPA-encapsulated SBA-15 or TiSBA-15 without HPA.
