Abstract: The influences of MnO2 particles on the photocatalytic activity of Degussa P-25 TiO2 were investigated with kinetical method under three kinds of UV sources, which are UV365/28 W, UV302/16 W and UV254/25 W. α-MnO2, β-MnO2 and δ-MnO2 were introduced in the experiment. The results show that TiO2 photocatalyst deactivates due to the presence of MnO2 particles under UV365/28 W and UV302/16 W, while the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 basically keeps stable photocatalysis activity under UV254/25 W. In conclusion, the stability of TiO2 photocatalyst is significantly related to the wavelength of UV sources.
