Abstract

Silver phosphates (Ag₃PO₄) with varied morphology were prepared via an ammonia-mediate method. The as-prepared Ag₃PO₄has a cubic-type structure and the morphologies are controlled under different ratio of water and ethylene glycol. The decomposition test of RhB indicated that the uniform morphology of Ag₃PO₄exhibit much higher photocatalytic activities than that of not uniform ones under visible light irradiation. The DeNO_xexperiments revealed that the micronsize Ag₃PO₄microcrystals possessed photocatalytic ability lower than that of the commercial Degussa P25 under ultraviolet and visible light irradiation, which suggested that the size of Ag₃PO₄is a key role for DeNO_x.
