Abstract：

Zn(2)GeO(4)　nanorods　were　prepared　by　a　surfactant-assisted　hydrothermal　method　and　used　as　photocatalysts　for　the　decomposition　of　organic　pollutants　in　water.　The　physicochemical　properties　of　the　Zn(2)GeO(4)　photocatalysts　were　characterized　by　several　techniques,　and　their　photocatalytic　activity　was　evaluated　by　the　decomposition　of　methyl　orange,　salicylic　acid,　and　4-chlorophenol　in　aqueous　solution.　The　results　revealed　that　the　Zn(2)GeO(4)　nanorods　have　a　much　higher　photocatalytic　activity　for　decomposing　organic　pollutants　in　aqueous　solution　than　both　Zn(2)GeO(4)　prepared　by　a　conventional　solid-state　reaction　and　widely　used　TiO(2)　(Degussa　P25).　There　is　no　obvious　deactivation　of　Zn(2)GeO(4)　nanorods　in　the　photocatalytic　reactions.　The　intermediates　of　the　photocatalytic　reactions　were　monitored　by　LC-MS,　and　possible　photocatalytic　reaction　pathways　as　to　how　Zn(2)GeO(4)　nanorods　degrade　organic　dyes　were　proposed.
