The photocatalytic efficiency of different TiO2 Catalysts in the degradation of 2-propanol in gas phase has been studied. The obtained efficiencies have been compared considering the distribution of rutile-anatase phases, surface area, particle size, distribution of surface hydroxyl groups and Bronsted or Lewis acid centres. The catalysts used were Degussa-P25 (TiO2-P25), Hombikat, Millennium, Kemira and s/g-TiO2, a catalyst prepared by a sol-gel method.The best photocatalytic behaviours have been obtained with those catalysts with higher surface area and the presence of only anatase phase (Hombikat and Millennium). A progressive deactivation of TiO2-P25 and s/g-TiO2 has been observed during the photocatalytic process.FTIR studies indicated that degradation mechanisms depended on the catalyst employed. Deactivation processes observed in TiO2-P25 have been correlated with the formation of carboxylates. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
