However, higher temperature than 130℃ was not in favor of its photocatalytic activity. Increasing the number of surface carboxyl groups of the modified PET fiber could cause a liner improvement in MIL-53(Fe) loading content and photocatalytic ability. High visible irradiation intensity also dramatically increased photocatalytic ability and PVA degradation efficiency of MIL-Fe@PET. Na_(2)S_(2)O_(8) was used to replace H_(2)O_(2) as electron acceptor for further promoting PVA degradation in this system. MIL-Fe@PET prepared by HTPE process showed higher MIL-53(Fe) loading content and slightly lower PVA degradation efficiency than that prepared by solvothermal process at the same conditions.
