Study on (P, N, Mo)-TiO2 Photocatalytic Coating and Its Photocatalytic Activities Under Visible Light.

Phosphorous (P), nitrogen (N) and molybdenum (Mo) ternary co-doped titania (TiO2) photocatalytic coatings were fabricated by Cold Gas Dynamic Spraying (CGDS) with (P, N, Mo)-TiO2 nano powders as feedshock. (P, N, Mo)-TiO2 nano powders and cold sprayed (P, N, Mo)-TiO2 coatings were characterized by SEM, Raman, XRD, XPS and UV-Vis spectra. Experiment results show that the characteristics of (P, N, Mo)-TiO2 nano powders can be remained in the coatings as more as possible by CGDS. Cold sprayed (P, N, Mo)-TiO2 coatings exhibited good photocatalytic activity under visible light. In addition, the mechanism of (P, N, Mo)-TiO2 photocatalysts was also proposed.
