In order to solve the defects of TiO₂ photocatalyst, including the rapid recombination of photo-generated electronhole pairs and low solar light utilization, two dimensional TiO₂/DL-Ti₃C₂ composite photocatalysts were prepared using solvothermal method to control the oxidation of delaminated Ti₃C₂ MXene with few layers (DL-Ti₃C₂). The photocatalytic performance of TiO₂/DL-Ti₃C₂ composite was evaluated by degrading rhodamine B solution. The results show that TiO₂/DL-Ti₃C₂ photocatalyst exhibited strong absorption for visible light and better photocatalytic performance than pure DL-Ti₃C₂ and P25. The TiO₂/DL-Ti₃C₂ composite oxidized at 160℃ in solvothermal process obtained the best photocatalytic performance. When the oxidation temperature was too low, the amount of TiO₂ formed in the composite was insufficient to produce enough photo-generated electron-holes pairs, resulting in the unsatisfied performance of the photocatalyst. On the contrary, when the oxidation temperature was exceedingly high, the residual DL-Ti₃C₂ was unable to keep its outstanding conductivity, which accelerated the fast recombination of photo-generated electron-hole pairs and made the performance poor. Consequently, the relative contents of TiO₂ and DL-Ti₃C₂ in TiO₂/DL-Ti₃C₂ composites could be effectively regulated by varying the oxidation temperature of DL-Ti₃C₂, so as to improve the photocatalytic activity due to the synergistic effects of TiO₂ and DL-Ti₃C₂.
