Abstract
The active oxidative species (mainly corresponding to hydroxyl radicals ( . OH) ) produced on TiOz film photocatalyst in aerated aqueous
solution have been quantitatively investigated by measuring the fluorescence derived by the reaction with either coumarin or terephthalic acid.
Upon UV light illumination, coumarin in aqueous solution and tcrephthalic acid in NaOH solution were converted on the TiO, film photocatalyst
to highly fluorescent hydroxy products. Analysis of the resultant hydroxy compounds provides sensitive and specific monitoring of the
generated active oxidative species. The rate of active species formation could be determined by the time dependence of the increase in
concentration of the resultant hydroxy products. Using this fluorescence method, the effect of light intensity on the generation efficiency of
active oxidative species was examined. The obtained results show that the efficiency of active oxidative species formation is constant at the
UV intensity from 50 pW cm- to 15 mW cm-, which is consistent with the results for . OH detection reported recently by the use of other
techniques. 02000 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
