AgBr/Ag3PO4 hybrid microstructures were synthesized by a facile method. These hybrids exhibited the enhanced photocatalytic performance for degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) under the visible light illumination. Additionally, the effect of AgBr content on the recyclability of the hybrid was investigated. The best recyclability of the hybrid was realized in the samples containing 50% AgBr. Such a behavior might be attributed to the increased high active sites and suitable energy band structure. The possible mechanism was discussed. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
