description In this work, the effect of the addition of iridium on TiO2 and Nb2O5 supports obtained by wet impregnation method was evaluated in the photocatalytic degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenoxiacetic acid under UV irradiation. The synthetized materials were analyzed by different techniques in order to determinate their physicochemical properties. In general, it was observed that the addition of iridium modifies the surface area, band gap energy and it enhances the crystallinity of the materials. Besides, an increase in the photoactivity in the degradation of the herbicide was evidenced using the materials modified. However, the Ir/TiO2 photocatalyst possess the best photocatalytic behavior toward the degradation and possible mineralization of the herbicide. The improved performance of the photocatalyst could be argued by the role of the iridium particles as electron collectors favoring the effective separation of the charge carriers and, as consequence, increasing the degradation of the molecule.

Los materiales sintetizados fueron analizados mediante diferentes técnicas para determinar sus propiedades fisicoquímicas. En general, se observó que la adición de iridio modifica el área superficial, la energía de banda prohibida y mejora la cristalinidad de los materiales. Además, se evidenció un aumento de la fotoactividad en la degradación del herbicida utilizando los materiales modificados. Sin embargo, el fotocatalizador Ir/TiO2 presentó el mejor comportamiento fotocatalítico hacia la degradación y posible mineralización del herbicida. El rendimiento mejorado del fotocatalizador podría argumentarse por el papel de las partículas de iridio como colectores de electrones que favorecen la separación efectiva de los portadores de carga y, como consecuencia, aumenta la degradación de la molécula.
