ABSTRACT This work mainly focuses on the preparation and performance study of SrTiO3-BiOCl composite photocatalysis. The SrTiO3-BiOCl photocatalysts are prepared via the facial microwave hydrothermal method. XRD, UV-vis DRS, SEM, TEM, XPS, N2 adsorption and desorption isothermal experiment, FT-IR, and PL are applied to characterize the prepared samples. The spherical particles of SrTiO3 grow on the flaky BiOCl, and the crystal size is uniform and evenly disperses on the BiOCl. The catalytic performance of the samples was evaluated over the degradation rates of methylene blue(MB). Typically, the clearance rates of MB reached to 99.65% over SrTiO3-BiOCl-50% under visible light, which was much higher than that of SrTiO3 and BiOCl (55.86%, 79.79%, respectively). The active species capturing experiments and ESR showed that the holes (h+) and ·OH are playing the main roles in the degradation process.
