Abstract: Fe3+-doped anatase nanosized TiO2 powders were synthesized by a hydrothermal method using tetrabutylorthotitanate as precursor. The as-prepared TiO2 powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and N2 adsorption-desorption measurements. The photocatalytic activity of the as-prepared TiO2 powders was evaluated by the photocatalytic degradation of acetone under UV-light irradiation at room temperature in air. The effects of Fe3+dopant content on the microstructures and photocatalytic activity of the TiO2 powders were investigated and discussed. Fe3+dopant content obviously influenced the crystallization, crystallite size, BET specific surface areas and photocatalytic activity of the prepared TiO2 powders. It was found that the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 doped exceeded those of non-doped TiO2 and P25.
