Abstract

The silica gel carrying a titanium oxide photocatalyst in a high concentration of the present invention is characterized in that the concentration of the titanium oxide contained in the pores near the surface of the silica gel is 7-70% by weight, said silica gel having an average pore diameter of 6-100 nm, provided that the concentration gradient is provided such that the amount of the titanium oxide contained in the pores near the surface of the silica gel is 1.5 times or more than the amount of the titanium oxide contained in the pores near the central part of the silica gel.
