(Abstract)
Two kinds of porous ceramic disk having through holes with diameters of 0.1 and 0.05 mm were coated with TiO2 using two kinds of starting solution of titanyl(IV)acetylacetonate and a commercial titania sol (STS-01). The morphology of these porous ceramics before and after TiO2 coating was observed by SEM. The TiO2 coated porous ceramics were exploited as a honeycomb photocatalytic microreactor. The photocatalytic activity was evaluated using the decomposition of methylene blue solution for radiation angles of 0° and 10° to the pore axis. The highest photocatalytic activity was obtained for the porous ceramic having a pore diameter of 0.1 mm, coated with titanyl(IV)acetylacetonate and irradiated with a light angle of 0° to the pore axis.
