Abstract

The photocatalytic activity of cobalt tetrasulphophthalocyanine immobilized onto MCM-41 was investigated for photocatalytic degradation of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) in aqueous solutions. Immobilization of cobalt tetrasulphophthalocyanine complex to the walls of MCM-41 was performed by pre-anchorage of 3-(aminopropyl)-triethoxysilane (APTES) onto MCM-41 via post-synthesis method. X-ray diffraction, nitrogen physisorption, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray and FT-IR methods were used to characterize the product. Photocatalytic efficiency of the prepared photocatalyst for degradation of 4-CP was tested under illumination of UV-A and visible light. The reaction intermediates were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) technique.
