The Cu- and Ti-containing composition of the present invention contains titanium oxide having a rutile-type titanium oxide content of 15 mol % or more, and at least one divalent copper compound represented by the following formula (1). The Cu- and Ti-containing composition production method of the present invention is characterized by including stirring a mixture containing titanium oxide having a rutile-type titanium oxide content of 15 mol % or more, a divalent copper compound raw material represented by formula (2), water, and an alkaline compound, to thereby cause precipitation. The composition of the present invention exhibits excellent anti-viral property under light and in the dark, and excellent organic compound decomposition activity under light.

Copper-and-titanium-containing composition and production method therefor

A copper compound-carried titanium oxide photocatalyst which is excellent in a photocatalytic activity and a viral inactivation property and a production process for the same can be provided by a copper compound-carried titanium oxide photocatalyst comprising titanium oxide in which a content of rutile type titanium oxide is 50% by mole or more and a monovalent copper compound and a divalent copper compound which are carried on a surface of the titanium oxide described above and a production process for a copper compound-carried titanium oxide photocatalyst, comprising a step of carrying a monovalent copper compound and a divalent copper compound on a surface of titanium oxide in which a content of rutile type titanium oxide is 50% by mole or more.

Titanium oxide photocatalyst having copper compounds supported thereon, and method for producing same

The Cu- and Ti-containing composition of the present invention contains titanium oxide including rutile-crystal-type titanium oxide, and a divalent copper compound, wherein the rutile-crystal-type titanium oxide exhibits the most intense diffraction peak attributed to rutile-type titanium oxide having a full width at half maximum of 0.65&#xb0; or less, in a Cu&#x2014;K&#x3b1; line X-ray diffraction pattern, which is obtained by plotting intensity of diffraction line with respect to diffraction angle 2&#x3b8;. The composition exhibits excellent anti-viral property under light and in the dark, and excellent organic compound degradability under light.

An antimicrobial and antiviral composition, a method of producing the same, and the like are provided, which are capable of exhibiting an excellent antimicrobial and antiviral properties over a long time in the application for various uses. The antimicrobial and antiviral composition contains cuprous oxide particles having a BET specific surface area of 5 to 100 m/g and a saccharide having an aldehyde group, in which the content of the saccharide with an aldehyde group is 0.5 to 10 mass part based on the cuprous oxide particles of 100 mass part. The method produces this composition.
