We prepared ZnO ultrafine particles (UFPs) by thermal decomposition of the precursor zinc carbonate hydroxide. The surface properties of the as-prepared particles were studied using TEM, XRD, BET, SPS, EPR, IR, and XPS. The surface contains active species such as oxygen deficiencies and hydroxyl that improve photocatalytic activities. The concentrations of active species decreased as the calcination temperature increased along with the surface areas and photovoltage. The ZnO UFP have a significant EPR signal resulting from O2- deficiencies on the surface, which can capture and trap electrons. During photocatalytic: degradation of phenol, the photocatalytic activities of the particles decreased as their size increased, which means that these activities depend mainly on surface properties.
