Abstract

Provided are bismuth vanadate particles containing molybdenum and having an average particle size of 5 μm or less. In the bismuth vanadate particles, it is preferable that the content of molybdenum (M1) in terms of molybdenum trioxide relative to 100 mass% of the bismuth vanadate particles, which is determined by XRF analysis of the bismuth vanadate particles, is 0.001 mass% to 10 mass%. In the bismuth vanadate particles, it is preferable that the content of molybdenum in terms of molybdenum trioxide relative to 100 mass% of the surface layer of the bismuth vanadate particles, which is determined by XPS surface analysis of the bismuth vanadate particles, is 0.1 mass% to 30 mass%.
