【摘要】A novel thermosensitive photocatalyst,P(NIPA-co-ZnMPc),has been prepared using zinc tetra(N-carbonylacrylic)aminophthalocya-nine(ZnMPc) to copolymerize with N-isopropylacrylamide(NIPA).The lower critical solution temperature(LCST) of P(NIPA-co-ZnMPc) measured by differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) was 33.5 °C.P(NIPA-co-ZnMPc) effectively catalyzes the oxidation of 4-chlorophenols(4-CP) using oxygen as oxidant under the visible light irradiation,and it has higher photocatalytic activity than ZnMPc under the same condition.The UV-vis spectra of them in aqueous solution indicate that the macromolecular chains in P(NIPA-co-ZnMPc) restrain the aggregation of ZnMPc
