All samples were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, UV diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. Results showed that the residual carbon content was influenced by heat treatment temperature and the amount of PVA. The degradation of methylene blue by Carbon-coated tourmaline was also studied. The experiments pointed out that the carbon coated effects are best when the heating temperature was 900℃ and the weight content of PVA was 70%. And the tourmaline prepared under 900℃ in the oxidation atmosphere has the best degrade efficiency. The results also proved that the infrared radiation of tourmaline is not effect in the degrade progress.展开更多
