Abstract

Abstract: Mn₂O₃ microspheres were synthesized by a two-step method in ethylene glycol (EG)system. First, the precursor was produced in the presence of ethylene glycol(EG) by using MnCl₂?4H₂O and sodium acetate (NaAc) as reactants. Second, the precursor was calcined to obtain the products of crystalline Mn₂O₃. The products were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Moreover, the photocatalytic activity of the products was examined by measuring the photodegradation of methyleneblue solution with ultraviolet radiation in the presence of H₂O₂.The results show that the as-synthesized Mn₂O₃ microspheres assembled by nanoslices, which is composed of large quantity of nanoparticles. And the average diameters of the Mn₂O₃ microspheresare 7μm. The formation mechanism of the Mn₂O₃ microspheres is simply discussed. And the Mn₂O₃microspheres have good photocatalyticactivity due to its particular structure.

Key words: Mn₂O₃microsphere, synthesis, photocatalyticactivity
