[0039] Thirdly, 0.2 g of the synthesized sample was dispersed in 200 mL of ultrapure water and ultrasonically treated for 30 minutes. Then, 2.0 mL of 5% polyethylene glycol was added, and the solution was stirred for another 30 minutes to obtain a uniform solution. Next, 1.2 mL of AgNO3 solution (2.5 g / L) was added, and the solution was transferred to a water-cooled reactor and irradiated using a 300 W xenon lamp for 60 minutes at an irradiation intensity of 200 mWcm -2 Finally, after being washed twice with anhydrous ethanol and once with deionized water, and dried in a vacuum box at 40℃ for 24 hours, a solid powder sample was obtained, which was a composite catalyst product with the chemical formula Ag@Fe2O3 / C.
