It prepared the TiO2 powder which has photo-catalytic activity in the visible-light by the wet process with titanium oxysulfate. The titanium dioxide(TiO2) by the wet process creates a new absorption band in the visible light region, and is expected to create photocatalytic activity in this region. Anatase TiO2 powder which has photocatalytic activity in the visible light region, is treated using microwave and radio-frequency(RF) plasma. But, the TiO2 powder for the visible light region, which also can be easily produced by wet process. The wet process TiO2 absorbed visible light between 400nm and 600nm, and showed a high activity in this region, as measured by the oxidation removal of aceton from the gas phase. The AH-380 sample appears the yellow color to be strong, the catalytic activity in the visible ray was excellent in comparison with the plasma-treated TiO2. The AH-380 TiO2 powder, which can be easily produced on a large scale, is expected to have higher efficiency in utilizing solar energy than the plasma-treated TiO2 powder.
