Abstract

A novel Ag-based photocatalyst Ag2Nb4O11 has been obtained, which exhibits universal high-efficiency photodegradation activity for rhodamine B (RhB), methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) organic dyes. The cycling ability (40 times) and recovery characteristics indicate that the Ag2Nb4O11 photocatalyst has high stability, durability and regeneration ability.
