Description:
A natural mineral attapulgite was employed as a carrier of TiO 2−x N y nanopaticles photocatalytst. The attapulgite/TiO 2−x N y composites were prepared by soft grinding after hydrothermal synthesis of TiO 2−x N y nanoparticles at 250°C for 10 min. The photocatalytic activities of the samples were evaluated for the oxidative destruction of NO. The composites showed excellent photocatalytic activity under both UV and visible light irradiation, where attapulgite/70 wt.% TiO 2−x N y composites showed the best performance for NO destruction.
