Abstract

For the development of long-wavelength responding photocatalyst, Ag was applied to commercial $TiO_2$ to produce $Ag/TiO_2$ photocatalyst. Moreover, micro-emulsion method was used in order to increase the efficiency of the photocatalyst by enhancing the dispersion of Ag. Physical properties of the manufactured catalyst were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), field emission transmission electron microscopy (FE-TEM) and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS). For the catalytic performance measurement, RO 16 (Reactive Orange 16) removal was performed with 25 ppm RO 16 under UV-A (365 nm) irradiation. In addition, ball milling and dip-coating method were used to synthesize the photocatalyst for the comparison of the outcomes of using different synthesis methods. In addition, catalytic performance was improved by varying the Ag content and surfactant content. The highest catalytic performance was shown at $Ag/TiO_2$ synthesized by micro-emulsion method with 2 wt% of Ag content, and 0.5 g of the surfactant.

본 연구에서는 장파장에서 감응하는 광촉매를 개발하기 위하여 상용화된 $TiO_2$에 Ag를 도핑하여 제조하였으며 광촉매 효율을 향상시키기 위하여 귀금속의 분산을 증대시키는 마이크로에멀젼 방법을 이용하였다. 제조된 $Ag/TiO_2$의 물리적 특성은 SEM(Scanning Electron Microscopy), FE-TEM(Field Emission Transmission Electron Microscopy), DRS(Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy)를 통해 분석하였다. RO 16(Reactive Orange 16)에 대한 광촉매의 제거 효율은 25ppm의 RO 16을 대상으로 UV-A 영역(365nm)에서 수행하였다. Ag의 도핑방법에 의한 광촉매 효율을 비교하기 위해 볼밀링 및 딥코팅 방법으로 제조하여 광촉매 효율을 분석하였으며 광촉매 효율에 대한 Ag 및 계면활성제 함량에 대한 최적화를 진행하였다. 도핑방법에 따른 RO 16 제거효율 분석 결과, 마이크로에멀젼 방법으로 제조한 $Ag/TiO_2$의 RO 16 제거효율이 가장 높았으며 Ag 함량 2wt%, 계면활성제 0.5g에서 가장 높은 제거효율을 보였다.
