A nano-size TiO₂ photocatalyst was prepared readily by the Sol-gel method,and was used to catalyze the degradation of PE films under UV (15 W intensity) irradiation for 240 h in air.The properties of the catalyst and the degraded PE films were characterized by XRD,FT-IR and SEM.The results show that PE films lose only 7.66% of its mass under UV irradiation for 240 h,while Rutile style TiO₂ and Anatase TiO₂ photocatalysts can increase the mass loss to 14.93%,and 23.97%,respectively,indicating that TiO₂ speeds up the breaking and photo oxidation of PE chains.The SEM micrograph of the PE film after photodegradation shows a large number of pits on the film surface.The XRD patterns indicate there was more wax in the degradation products in the presence of TiO₂.Anatase style TiO₂ exhibited a higher activity than Rutile style TiO₂ for the photodegradation of PE films.
