Abstract
Solvothermal method was used to synthesize composite χ%TiO2/HZSM-5 for degradation of methyl orange. Nano sized
anatase TiO2 was loaded on the surface of HZSM-5. The supported χ%TiO2/HZSM-5 has larger surface area than pure TiO2,
depending on TiO2 loading content. Smaller pore size and larger total pore volume are obtained after the addition of
HZSM-5. Adsorption of methyl orange on the materials is around 5% while photocatalytic degradation is the major
decoloration way. 40%TiO2/HZSM-5 has the maximum activity that is as high as 53% after 30 min of irradiation..
