The photocatalytic efficiency of the obtained multilayer film increases along with the decrease of pH and salt concentration of the incubation solution. The results show that MO can be almost re- moved in pH 2.0 solution without salt addition in the first 60 min incubation when MO concentration is lower than 15 mg/L. Different salts show an apparent inhibitory effect on photocatalytic degradation of MO with the order of ZnC12〉KCI〉 NaC1〉LiCI. The TiO2/SiW12 multilayer film maintains photocatalytic activity even after five degradation cycles. The reaction of MO photodegradation accords with an apparent first-order dynamics.展开更多
