Abstract
A photocatalyst article exhibits high photocatalytic activity even in environments illuminated by weak ultraviolet light or visible light, expresses excellent anti-fogging and anti-soiling properties, and retains good anti-fogging and anti-soiling performance over long periods and therefore has a high utilization value as an anti-fogging, anti-soiling article. The photocatalyst article contains an oxide semiconductor and a compound which contains at least one type of element selected from the group comprised of Mg, Sc, V, Cr, Mn, Y, Nb, Mo, Ru, W, and Re, at a content such that the ratio (A/B) of the number of metal atoms of the abovementioned element (A) to the number of atoms of metal that comprise the abovementioned oxide semiconductor (B) will be about 0.20 to 2.
