  ABSTRACT: A new type of photocatalytic material, double-perovskite oxides, LnBaCo2O5+δ (Ln = Eu, Gd, and Sm) was synthesized via a conventional solid-state reaction process using Ln2O3, BaCO3 and Co2O3 as raw materials. X-ray diffraction results show that the crystalline structures are a pure orthorhombic lattice and are consistent with LnBaCo2O5+δ microparticles. The photocatalytic activity of the LnBaCo2O5+δ (Ln = Eu, Gd, and Sm) powders was further demonstrated in the degradation of Congo red (CR) under ultraviolet light irradiation with the dye solution concentration of 25 or 50 mg·L-1. The double-perovskite oxides LnBaCo2O5+δ show a certain photocatalytic activity during the degradation of CR under ultraviolet light, which means that they are one kind of the promising photocatalytic materials for the degradation of the azo dyes.
