Abstract
Highly oriented Nb2O5 nanoporous network produced via anodization for photocatalytic activity of methyl orange (MO) is presented. The anodization duration was varies from 0.5 to 2 hours and the photocatalytic performance is observed by degradation of MO solution. The Nb2O5 nanoparticles were added in MO solution and were exposed to the solar simulator for 3 hours. The morphology of Nb2O5 nanoporous and the photocatalytic performance are characterized in Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) and UV-Vis spectrophotometer, respectively. The result shows that different duration of anodized produce different sizes of nanoporous diameter that will significantly affect the photocatalytic performance. The 1.5 hours of anodized has the largest diameter size of nanoporous and exhibited the best photocatalytic performance
