Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

To provide a photocatalyst material having alkaline resistance and showing less deterioration in photocatalyst performance due to a poisoning effect and to provide a method for producing the photocatalyst material, a photocatalyst material ( 1 A) according to one embodiment of the present invention includes: core particles ( 2 ) containing tungsten oxide; a promoter ( 4 ) formed on the surface of the core particles ( 2 ); and a shell layer ( 3 ) made of titanium oxide and covering the entire surface of both the core particles ( 2 ) and the promoter ( 4 ).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A photocatalyst material comprising: core particles containing tungsten oxide; a promoter formed on the surface of the core particles; and a shell layer made of titanium oxide and covering the entire surface of both the core particles and the promoter. 2 . The photocatalyst material according to claim 1 , wherein the promoter formed on the surface of the core particles comprises a plurality of types of promoters. 3 . The photocatalyst material according to claim 1 , wherein the core particles are composed of a mixture of the tungsten oxide and copper oxide. 4 . The photocatalyst material according to claim 1 , wherein each of the core particles covered with the shell layer comprises a plurality of core particles. 5 . The photocatalyst material according to claim 1 , wherein the promoter is one of a metal and a metal compound that include at least one of copper, platinum, palladium, iron, silver, gold, nickel, ruthenium, iridium, niobium, and molybdenum. 6 . The photocatalyst material according to claim 1 , wherein the shell layer is made of crystalline titanium oxide. 7 . A method for producing a photocatalyst material, the method comprising: a formation step of forming a promoter on the surface of core particles containing tungsten oxide; and a covering step of, after the formation step, covering the entire surface of both the core particles and the promoter with a shell layer made of titanium oxide.
